Brigida was a very accommodating host, even doing a load of laundry for us. The location is perfect and we enjoyed our morning cappuccino on the veranda. It made for a lovely time in Monterosso!

Brigida was very helpful and attentive. We weren't quite prepared for hauling our luggage up the steep streets from the train station but we managed. The return to the station was all downhill!
Beautiful area and a great spot. Not much sitting area but we weren't there much. The visit was too short!

Brigida is a great host and apartment was imacculate. She was very kind and even did our laundry, which was a big help. We were sorry to have one night short on our time in Al Frantoio guest house, as there was an Italian rail strike so we had to move on to Florence.
You do hear a bit of traffic as the location is just outside the gate at the top of the hill, but otherwise very quiet. The Tourist Information is right across the street.
Enought room for 4 adults and 2 bathrooms, all very clean and well equipped.

We LOVED the location and how immaculately clean this property was. We'll never forget our daily pilgrammage for cappuchinos from Mario and delicious homemade pastries from the bakery in the alley around the corner, which we thoroughly enjoyed on the plant-filled deck every morning. Only thing we might have missed was possibly an entertaining area/family room inside?
Al Frantoio was a haven after a long day of hiking or water taxiing between the Chinque Terre. Brigida even cleaned our place daily, then offered to wash and hang our laundry. Cannot overstate what an incredible value this was.

Review of Al Frantoio
The apartment was lovely and immaculately clean. The patio was a nice outdoor space and plenty roomy for four people to sit and talk, relax, eat, etc. It was located up the hill a ways, quite a walk from the train station. That was typical Italy—you work for your rewards, be it a meal, a bathroom, or your accommodations. The beds were comfortable, and it was quiet at night. The only slightly negative about the apartment was that there wasn’t a sitting area inside to play cards or visit except for the kitchen table. The table was well lit and the chairs comfortable so I only mention it so a family wouldn’t be surprised by the fact that there wasn’t a separate sitting or living area. We would stay there again if fortunate enough to return.

We loved the proximity to the old town. The house was very nice, we loved the verranda for our breakfast and evening wine. Brigida was very helpful and accommodating. I would recommend this rental to others. The drive to Monterosso was challenging.

Brigida is the best host. She has a magnificent garden on her patio. The property is a few minute walk from the main plaza. It was so wonderfully quiet! There is a parking garage close by, cheap and easy for us Americans to park in. There were two spacious bedrooms each with a bathroom. A nice sized kitchen to eat breakfast in each day. At night we could enjoy a glass of wine on the lovely patio.
We loved Monterosso. The beach, hiking and city center were all amazing and within a few minutes of this property. Also, there are trains a few minutes walk that connect the five cities for those who do not want to hike. You can also hike one way and easily train back for $4EU. We will definitely be back here!

Very spacious and adorable apartment
Very nice, clean, spacious apartment with a beautiful terrace! It might be a good idea to tell people (as I would have liked to have known this) that the 10 minute walk from the station, goes through town and the final bit is uphill.
Being away from the main road turned out to be such a blessing, but it was a bit of a shock after coming on a delayed train that had no AC (that's another story/review).
The apartment was quiet and peaceful and Brigida was there to welcome us. The store is very near by as are many cute shops, and the beach! My husband and I hiked to the next town over which was so scenic and fantastic. We swam in the ocean, had great food, atmosphere, and walking in the historic area. It's crowded at this time of year, but we still had fun. I highly recommend Brigida's apartment to anyone going to Cinque Terre, Montorosso.

Awesome location and host
The apartment was the best of the 5 locations we stayed at during our visit to Italy. It was extremely clean and Brigida made sure it stayed that way by daily attending to it while we were gone, doing the floor the beds and the dishes (if we left any, which we stopped after the first day as we didn't expect that type of service) The place always looked immaculate and the patio overlooking the small town was large and well decorated with plants and succulents. I would give this apartment a 6 out of 5. The short walk up the hill each day helped us to wear off some of the great food we ate at all the restaurants located so close to the apartment. Thanks Brigida.
