Remarkable Historic Building in Old Town Genoa

We still can’t believe we got to stay in this Sixteenth Century Palazzo! If anyone is obsessed with historical buildings and interiors, this is for you: Original terrazzo floors in gorgeous patterns. Fantastically high ceilings, fresco painted. All located in the labyrinth of narrow streets in the old town.

Most wonderful stay!

We had such a wonderful stay at this apartment. Stellar communication with the hosts before our trip. The host had someone there to welcome us, which was amazing because sometimes apartments in these types of buildings are confusing. The apartment itself was STUNNING. It had everything that you could ever need. The cabinets were full of items to help you cook a meal. Even the olive oil was phenomenal. I would highly recommend this place. And would stay in it again!

VRBO Paul and Sandra Genova October 19-23, 2022

Paul’s and Sandra’s flat located at Via di Giustiniani 18B, is one of the best VRBO apartments we have stayed in. This location in the oldest area of Genova is ideally situated near the port, restaurants, night life and many historic sights. Their apartment is in a recently renovated town home on the second floor with direct elevator access. The sunny rooms are extra-large with extremely high ceilings and extra tall windows. The is a large eat in kitchen with long table and chairs. The kitchen is new contemporary style, Miele appliances, all the accessories, utensils, cookware needed. Miele washing machine is easy to operate. There are three bedrooms and two full baths, one with walk-in shower and the other with tub shower, toilets and bidets in both bathrooms. There is good water pressure, and flow with plenty of warm water. Since the apartment is located near night life, ear plugs are recommended. We highly recommend this apartment.

Response from VrboOwner on 15 Sept 2024
We took the guest's notice very seriously and had the apartment inspected. No bed bugs were found. In the meantime, two other groups have stayed with us in the apartment and no one has had these problems (each with the best rating and the guests were very happy). This guest also confirmed that there were no more problems with bed bugs (especially not in the luggage). We are sorry that there has been this misunderstanding. We cannot explain it. There were and are no bed bugs.

Eine Woche in Genua

Das Haus und die Wohnung lassen keine Wünsche offen. Super tolle und nette Gastgeber. Die Wohnung hat alles was man braucht und benötigt. Viel Service und Einrichtung. Die Wohnung ist ein Schatz aus der Vergangenheit. Hier würden wir sofort alles mit 5 Sternen bewerten. Es gab nur einen Wermutstropfen. Das ist nicht etwa der Lärm der Gäste aus der Altstadt, nein das kann man gut aushalten. Leider ist in der Straße , das Mülldepot und auch der Firmensitz der Müllabfuhr. Hier ist also nicht nur am ganzen Tag Lärm sondern auch in der Nacht.Wir wissen schon, das auch der ganze Müll entsorgt werden muss, aber hier strapaziert es die Nerven , da hier ständig alle Müllautos vorbeifahren und die Tonnen mehrfach am Tag entleert werden. Das ist der einzige Nachteil, da man nie Ruhe hat. Ansonsten kann ich nur sagen, tolles Haus, tolle Gastgeber und tolle Stadt.
