Il Giardino In Riomaggiore

16/02/2025: The location of the hotel is perfect, you can reach the center of Porto Venere with a 10 minute walk. Sea-facing room with large panoramic window and balcony with chairs and table. Unfortunately, however, the window curtains were thin and at dawn we woke up with the sun inside the room, making it impossible to continue resting. They have included earplugs among the gadgets in the room but not the mask... a questionable choice given that the curtains are almost useless. In the room there was an unpleasant smell rising from the toilet and drains. Let's come to breakfast: plentiful but not adequate for a 4 star hotel, but what was really annoying, we started at 9.30, the time breakfast was served was by 10, at 10.05 they started taking away the buffet while we were still eating... I'll start by saying that, being February, there were 2 couples in the whole room, so not exactly a crowd. After having removed everything, having probably noticed our disappointment, the waiter came to the table to tell us that, since breakfast time had been over for 5 minutes and they had to clear the table, after having actually already taken away the entire buffet, he was asking us "do you want more something before I bring it away?"... It seemed like a joke. It's a shame because the night before they had been kind to serve us a glass of wine at the bar even though we had arrived shortly after the official closing time.
