Strong smell
This hotel has a very strong smell from reed diffusers that are placed all over the place. It was too much and overwhelming. Even rooms had a strong smell of cleaning supplies. Having to deal with this smell all the time made our stay uncomfortable.

Very close to the train to travel to cinque terre as well as other major Roman cities. Also a couple minute walking distance from many restaurants. Hotel staff was very accommodating and breakfast had a large variety of food options

Average hotel in an average area. Not far from the train station or the pedestrian streets, but nothing immediately adjacent either. The key card didnt work when i arrived so i was eventually given a proper key but still needed card to turn on the electricity. I came back one day and housekeeping had left their key in my door. Anyone could have gotten access to my room. Three smoke detectors in the room flashed every 30 seconds or so all the time. I slept with my head under the covers. The staff was pleasant but mostly disinterested. It is the only hotel I've stayed at in La Spezia, but my guess is that their are worse at this price point. And probably better too.

Close to train station and shopping. The outside of the property has the theme from John Lennonn's song "Imagine" on it and it has special meaning to me.

not only did breakfast, not come with the room, but they charged us an arm and a leg for the worst cup of coffee. I think I’ve ever had.

Cinque Terra gateway
Hotel was clean, bed comfy and centrally located. The complimentary drinks in the fridge were a nice touch and the front desk was very helpful. Rooms on the small size bit quiet. AC worked well and appreciated. Didn’t try the breakfast, found a couple of nice coffee shops close by. It would have been nice to have a coffee machine and tea kettle in the room. Close to a grocery store for supplies.

The Poet is a great place to stay. The front desk staff was very helpful and sweet. There is really interesting art through out the main areas. Our King size bed was comfortable and the biggest bed I have ever seen! I think it was 7 1/2 feet wide!
