Location: Terrific-5 minute walk to everything, including public bus. Staff: Laria, Camilla, Francesco and a young assistant were friendly and understanding. Facilities: microwave, refrigerator, tables, chairs and large tv(italian only) in reception area. Oversized bathroom(room 214) Elevator to access upper floors.

Bed way too hard. Could not sleep on my side. Also, Wifi was sporadic first night. Second night worked fine

The room size was perfect for our family which we have 4 persons. The location of this hotel is excellent if you plan for the cruise trip or the hotel that close to the aquarium. They also have the luggages store service which we can leave our luggages a bit further after checked out.

It would be great if they can have the bigger shower room. They have the big bathroom but the shower room a bit too small for us. We need to close the window because there were noisy sound from outside during the night. But the rest were fine with us.

Great location, walking distance to Metro and train station. Room looks recently renovated, especially the bathroom. Comfy bed and room very clean. The man who held our luggage and the man who checked us out at departure were very polite and friendly.

The woman who was at front desk in the afternoon was quite surly, always looked like we were bothering her. Room could use more furniture; anything that didn’t fit on the tiny bedside wall shelves had to go on the floor. No chair, but rather an office stool to sit on. Bathroom was VERY nice but no where to put toiletry bags or to hang a towel.

The location is fantastic, in the heart of things in the old town on a busy street. The hotel felt safe and secure with the front door locked against anyone trying to wander in off the street. There was no noise from the street despite it having plenty of restaurants and bars. The room was clean, the beds comfortable and there was air conditioning. For a budget hotel it had the essentials including toiletries.

You have to remember this is a budget hotel. It states tea and coffee making facilities and it does have a kettle and two mugs in the room. However, that is it - no tea or coffee, not even a spoon (unless we were unlucky!)

The hotel is located in a very central area with plenty restaurants, shops, supermarkets, pharmacies, bus stops, metro, train and everything that you could possibly think about that you my need. It's very clean and the shower is just great. The staff was welcoming and super friendly for the duration of my stay. The hotel is close to Piazza Principe which is a great station for day trips to Cinque Terre and Portofino, many other destinations as well like Milan, Rome etc but I was on a short trip to visit Cinque Terre and Portofino. The bed was super comfortable as well.

Great location in the old town of Genoa. Staff communicated with me before my arrival providing instructions on finding the place. Staff was very helpful as I changed rooms as I did not want a room without an attached bathroom. They also recommended a local restaurant frequented by locals. There was an elevator.

hotel is undergoing renovation so my room needed painting. Also I could not get the door to terrace to stay closed so I pushed a table in front of it. This was the reason for a lower score.

My wife and I thoroughly enjoyed our three day stay at the Mini Hotel. We were immediately impressed by the cleanliness of the premises, the friendliness of the staff, the spacious bedroom, bathroom, antechamber, and the location. Check-in and check-out were problem free. We were greeted each day with a friendly, “Buongiorno” from the receptionist. We appreciated the level of security provided by the four keys. Although our room was front facing, it was surprisingly quiet. We did hear the occasional dog bark or person shouting but otherwise our sleep was undisturbed. There was very little internal noise too – we did hear a child crying once, but there were no other loud voices or doors banging. The hotel is ideally located for enjoying a walking tour of Genova, within walking distance of Piazza Principe (where bus from airport stops), Piazza Ferrari, Castelletto, the Port and many wonderful restaurants. We did have to get a bus to Boccadasse. Housekeeping was superb with a daily change of bed linen, towels, and soaps/shower gels, plus the in-depth cleaning of the bedroom and bathroom. Toilet rolls are renewed when necessary but it would be a good idea to have a spare roll provided in case one roll is finished before the housekeeper arrives. Furniture was kept to a minimum. A kettle was provided (but not cups), and there is a coffee machine in the reception area. Air-conditioning is provided and the shuttered window could be opened to enhance airflow. The bed was comfortable but some people might require more than a single pillow (there are extra bedclothes in the wardrobe which could be used to elevate the pillows). We would like to thank each member of staff who made our stay in Mini Hotel so memorable, not just while we were present in Genova, but in our communications beforehand. Booking.com made an error in double charging us and it was a nightmare to deal with their (Booking.com) customer services when requesting a refund.

No spare toilet roll. No extra pillow(s).

Once you get there from the train station (a trek with a bag) you’ll find that this hotel is in an amazing location - heart of old town and really quick walk to the port esplanade with the aquarium, maritime museum and restaurants etc. the air conditioning was a life saver because it was extremely hot during my stay in Genova. Staff were lovely and helped me carry my bags up the stairs twice.

It was a hard walk in a heatwave to get there with my heavy luggage and the metro that’s closer to it was closed for construction. I wouldn’t recommend the breakfasts continue because they were overpriced and the coffee wasn’t nice (plus they used disposable cups/pods). There are plenty of cafes nearby (including downstairs) for pastries/coffee and if you look hard enough you’ll find a rare cafe/restaurant serving more substantial food that’s open before 1pm … Good luck!

It’s a great place to stay for a few days in Genoa. You’ll find here everything you need – clean room, towels, small private bathroom with a little soap bar and shampoo. Location is amazing; everything is just a few steps away. Communication with hotel is perfect; they let you know exactly what you need to get inside. Great thing is access codes – you can come in the evening or at night even if no one is at the reception.

The only thing you should prepare for is thin walls. You can hear everything that goes in the next room and on the street. If you are a light sleeper, you will probably wake up more than once during the night or early morning.

The location was unbeatable - 5 minutes walking for Porto Antico, the Aquarium, etc. It was the perfect size for our family of 4 - one queen size bed, two singles, and bathroom. The staff was super friendly and helpful, it was clean and quiet. There were also several good restaurants right across the street. It is simple, no frills, but the value for the money is unbeatable - that location and convenience, I feel like it's an unbeatable deal. We were also able to leave our luggage at the front desk at no cost until we were ready to go to the train station.

We wouldn't have wanted to spend much time in the room - pretty much just showering, sleeping, etc. - there wasn't much space to lounge around, but that's not really what we were there for - we were up and out the door all day. There was a little bit of a musty smell - there isn't a ton of air circulation, but everything seemed really clean.
