Found the rooms on Trip Advisor, certainly met expectations. Tonino met us within a couple of minutes of our calling him at the railway station and led us to the building. The rooms are set in a building of apartments uphill from railway station and almost above the previously reviwed "Pirates" restaurant ( don't have dinner there - breakfast ok).... more

The reviews are true. The pictures on his website are very accurate. We loved our stay at Tonino's. He found us and guided us to our room, gave us a map of the Cinque Terre and a low down on Vernazza. The room is modern and very clean. The laptop was great - internet was fast. We didn't actually turn... more

Very comfortable rooms in a great locationat the top of the town. No steps to ascend when travelling from train station. Spotlessy clean, with laptop and internet access in the room. Our room also had a small balcony. The room was street facing but was very quiet. The owner met us the minute we called him after arriiving and he... more

We really enjoyed our stay at Tonino Basso's. He met us where the shuttle from the parking lot arrives in town, which is right in front of his place. The accommodation was roomy and comfortable and included a laptop computer with on-line access. As everyone says, Il Pirata pastry shop/cafe next door is excellent. more

The rooms are very clean and the bathroom very nice. Tonino was very nice, he met us at the train station and walked us to the rooms. Vernazza is small, but it was a nice touch. No breakfast included but the cafe downstairs was good. The best feature was the elevator. This was great considering that I was carrying 6... more

Tonino is very sweet, he met us at the train station and walked us to the b&b. Vernazza is such a tiny town that it doesnt matter that its not right at the harbor. It takes maybe 3 minutes to walk down to the water. And that is where all the tourists are, so its better to be a little... more

Clean rooms, not quite as nice as the website photos, but spacious and very clean. Reliable service, internet in room, no breakfast. Great breakfast restaruant downstairs, Il Pirata, but if you want to whole seafood experience (which you do) then go down into town and eat dinner. Way on the other end of town but this is a good thing... more

If you want to stay in Vernazza you have very few choices. I was a little hesitant to rent a room but after reading the reviews decided to go ahead and I'm very glad we did. Tonino was incredibly professional. He was very good about communicating by email, he was on time and met us when we arrived. The building... more

April 27-28, 2009 We used Tonino Basso's room as a base to visit Cinque Terre for two days. It was a good choice although this was the first time we ever rented a room that did not include a common area like a dining or reception room. I reached Tonino Basso by cell phone while on the train from Santa... more
