WiFi is free throughout the property, while private parking is available for an extra charge.
The rooms at LA RIPA are designed for families and small groups, with capacity for up to 4 people thanks to the combination of an extra-large double bed and a sofa bed. Both available room types share practical features such as air conditioning, soundproofed walls, flat-screen TV with cable channels, coffee machine, electric kettle and a private bathroom with shower, bidet and toiletries. Sea and city views accompany the stay in both cases, making the visit pleasant even just by looking out from the window or the patio.
What mainly sets the two accommodations apart is the presence of a kitchenette with refrigerator, dishware and microwave in the Family Room, designed for those who want to prepare something on their own, while the Quadruple Room, slightly more compact, focuses on a cosy sitting area. Both range between 35 and 37 square metres, a generous size for the area, and include bed linen and towels provided by the property.
The Quadruple Room, at 35 sqm, is the most compact accommodation available, with a private bathroom featuring a shower, bidet, toiletries and hairdryer. The cosy sitting area and sea view make the room welcoming, while soundproofed walls and a tea and coffee set complete the amenities, with no kitchenette.
Slightly larger than the Quadruple Room at 37 sqm, the Family Room stands out for its kitchenette with refrigerator, dishware and microwave, designed for those wanting more independence. A private bathroom with shower and bidet, a sitting area and sea view complete a solution suited to longer stays.

The area retains the characteristic stepped layout typical of Ligurian villages, with narrow alleys descending towards the small harbour and the sea.
Riomaggiore railway station is just 300 metres away, a notable advantage for those wishing to travel along the coast to Manarola, about 1 km away, or continue on to La Spezia, about 6 km away, home to attractions such as the San Giorgio Castle and the Naval Museum.
