When booking I didn't read the entire description nor look up what "affitticamere" meant (room for rent), so I was a bit surprised when we arrived. However, after that we had a great experience. It has cooking utensils, dishes, a stove, tea pot, fridge and a nice sized dine-in table for two people. Kind of funky (which was great), very clean, friendly staff, and our contact person was easy to get a hold of and help us out with whatever we needed. La Spezia has a bigger city vibe, and somewhat of a hub for people heading to the more touristy spots, which made this location perfect for us to jump from site seeing to coming back to the room with some snacks purchased from the market in the plaza with ease. It was nice feeling like we were in actual Italy vs. tourist Italy. If we come back to La Spezia in the future we would stay here again.
