Carlotta provides a very well-run B&B experience. From the helpful and courteous staff to the exceptionally clean, modern rooms, her property perched up on the hill offers a phenomenal view over looking the city and port. Our room had a great panoromic view, but any of the guests can enjoy the view from the multiple terraces available for guests to kick back and relax. The breakfast room offers both indoor and outdoor seating with that same great view. A car was helpful getting in and out of town, but not necessary. The narrow, zigzagging roads might be a little intimidating to some---we found them exciting and part of the whole experience! For those without a car, some guests arrived by taxi or there was a walking path into town. As far as accessing dinner in the evening, there is a fantastic restaurant a little further up the hill or a multitude of great restaurants in town. Take out is also an option. We enjoyed 88 Miglia as a great home base for exploring Cinque Terre, Lerici, Tellaro, and other interesting villages in the area.
