Residence Kriss

The hotel was clean and quiet, 5 min to rail station. the staff was very friendly and helpful.

It was situated in a quiet village and not near any noisy roads or late night bars (if there are such things in Deiva Marina). There was free use of the internet. Staff were helpful when asked how we should get to places such as Portofino or what restaurants were available to use. The ice cream cabinet trapped us on our way past!

There was no power point in the kitchen that could be used with a small travel electric kettle. A power point would also have been useful for using a camera battery recharger. A small micro wave would have been good

The staff was always very friendly and helpful with any questions we had -- which were many! The room was spotlessly clean, and kitchenette was helpful. Evening dining room and outdoor lounge availability. Loved the big French doors to the balcony!

Minor complaint ----- flat pillows........

We had a wonderful time. The hotel was excellent value for money. Extremely clean, modern, very friendly. The beach was on the doorstep and it was fabulously easy to get to by train from pisa. The trains station in Deiva Marina was a short stroll away and the services ran very regularly, including late into the night for cinque terre towns. The town itself is a little sleepy, but this was super relaxing and we used the bars and restaurants in monterosso when we wanted something a bit livelier. Train from Pisa for two of us was just under 15 euros one way, it costs about twice as much if you use the eurocity train between pisa and la spezia, and is only about 15 to 20 mins quicker. i would recommend checking train times on trennitalia site.
