Italian Riviera, Italy hotel rooms at the Independent

"Very clean-close to train station and walking distance to restaurants and walk to ocean"

"Surprisingly impressed. Great budget price, but did not get trashy hotel. Room was very clean! All the basic needs were there, minimal but what you need is there—no fuss or extras like fancy hotel. But everything you really need is there and 24 hr concierge is there to take care of you. Special appreciation for Denise at front desk, really takes care of us. Location is perfect as it’s a short safe walk to cruise port. Turn the corner and you have a 24 hour pharmacy, and then to a Main Street with coffee, focaccia, restaurants, and conveniently the heart. The map looks intimidating but its literally 15 minutes radius and walk to get to any major sight or cathedral or museum. I thought I’d walked too far yet suddenly I was back at the hotel in less than 15 minutes coming from garibaldi, or piazza de Ferrari. This hotel is also across from Principe station. This hotel is great for budget price and super clean, quiet hotel, modern contemporary—simple—no fuss basic rooms. I liked that the room was high ceiling, great lighting, big windows, etc. Showers were clean too! Usually at this price and budget style hotels you would get a nightmare place with flickering lights and strange smells. Only thing I didn’t like was that it’s so close to the main road and ss1. Every hour you will hear at least one ambulance siren. Not the hotel fault. Haha"

"It’s a great hotel to stay. It’s closest to the train station. Best spot to go to any five towns nearby. "
