Description

The rooms at Casello68 are located on the first floor of an old railway station, where trains no longer pass by, which was completely renovated in 2019.

It's a great solution for those who want to relax, just two minutes walk from the sea, in the town center but away from the chaos.

Each room has a private bathroom with a window and an extra-large shower.

Other amenities include a smart TV, air conditioning and heating, USB outlets, Wi-Fi, hairdryer, safe, express laundry service, and bicycles.

The room is non-smoking, but there is a shared terrace where you can enjoy your breakfast, have a drink, or simply relax.

Parking is available upon reservation.

Everything is within walking distance, including bars, restaurants, supermarkets, the beach, the train station (15 minutes away), the dock where the boat for Cinque Terre docks (3 minutes away), the cycle path that connects Levanto to Bonassola and Framura, and the trails that lead to Monterosso al Mare.

Hey from Valentina

Member since October 2021 | 6,431 hits

Dear guests, we are Valentina and Mirko, ready to welcome you and meet your needs. Mirko spent his childhood right where you will spend your holidays. He is skilled in practically everything, but his best skills are in carpentry, pizza making, and homemade ravioli. As a perfectionist, he always strives for excellent results regardless of the ingredients.

As for me, Valentina, I will greet you and provide you with as much information as possible. In my "free time," I assist Mirko in driving his taxi. I hate the heat and love cold places.

Area city center

Casello68 is located in an unbeatable location! We are 200 meters away from the beach and 100 meters away from the gardens of Piazza Staglieno, which is the center of the town, rich with shops, restaurants, bars and supermarkets. You can enjoy all the conveniences of the city center without being disturbed by traffic noise and nightlife because Casello68 is hidden in a closed street where access to other vehicles is limited to residents.

We are delighted with our 3-night stay at Valentina and her husband! We highly recommend this house and we will return with great pleasure! The location is excellent and quiet. The room is spacious and functional. The covered terrace is an added advantage to enjoy an outdoor space, especially for having meals. There is even a refrigerator in the room for breakfast, which also allows for planning a meal on site. This is another advantage. Everything is very clean and well-kept. In addition, bicycles are available. Finally, Valentina is really lovely and very warm, she speaks French very well, gives plenty of good advice, is very available while allowing us our privacy and independence. It was simply perfect! A huge thank you to Valentina!

Valentina and Mirko are the added bonus to this outstanding location. They are beyond super hosts. It is obvious they are passionate about their B&B and provide an exceptional experience. If you are considering Cinque Terre, Levanto is the place to stay, Casello68 would be an excellent choice.

Super nice accommodation! We will gladly and surely come back! We felt at home! 2 drawbacks, unfortunately there was no cheese for breakfast, (we did not mention it ourselves) Drawback 2, which is actually not even a drawback, is the waste of garbage, small milk packages, small cornflakes packages, (large glass containers). We understand that this makes everything super fresh and more than hygienic. So also not even a small drawback! Valentina is super nice and really puts in a lot of effort! Cool woman! :)

We absolutely loved this place and Valentina (the host) went above and beyond to make our trip amazing. She was very detailed to make you feel comfortable and enjoy your stay. The bed was great, the air conditioning worked well, and the daily breakfast on the patio was fantastic.

Everything was perfect. Beautiful modern place to stay, the kind (and so helpful) host Valentina, delicious breakfast! And Levanto is a village to fall in love with. Nice people, good restaurants (La Loggia, Macaja and Sapori were our favorites) and sunny beach/sea. For ice cream go to Cremeria Garibaldi, the best! Perfect for a holiday on the CT in Italy. We will come back!

It was our second stay at Valentina's BnB and we really enjoyed our stay. The room and bathroom are very spacious, clean, and modern, and the terrace is a great addition. The breakfast products were always fresh and of high quality. It is very close to the beach and all the local restaurants. We definitely recommend it.

manuela

We had a great time, Valentina, the owner, was very kind, welcoming, and helpful, she took care to send us some tips to reach Casello68 and then when we arrived she advised us on how to move around the town and surroundings. The room is very beautiful, tastefully furnished and good, it corresponds to the photos we had seen on the website. The location is good for reaching the station. We appreciated the breakfast in the room or on the terrace on our own: coffee and tea, toast, cereals, jam, honey, chocolate spread available; water, juices, yogurt, cheese and cold cuts in the fridge; and then left outside the room door directly from the oven focaccia (amazing), bread and croissants. This is our typical breakfast, so we appreciated it and found it more than enough. Highly recommended, we would definitely return.

vincenzo

Great stay at Casello68! We spent 3 days at Valentina's who is a kind, helpful person and who gave us great tips for visiting the Cinque Terre, for the best places to have dinner. The rooms are new, tastefully decorated and very well equipped. There is even a lovely terrace for having breakfasts or dinners. The location is exceptional, just a short walk from the city center and the beach, and 10 minutes from the train station. No need for the car that we left in Valentina's parking. Thank you Valentina, we will definitely come back next year with our children! Vincenzo.

We had an amazing time at Casello68, from the moment we arrived until the moment we left Valentina was all about caring. The place is very clean and I would recommend it 200%. I will go back to Casello68 again on another trip to the Cinque Terre. Thank you again Valentina.

Our stay at the B&B Casello68 was perfect. The room is very nice with all the necessary equipment, nothing is missing. The breakfast left every morning by Valentina is abundant and varied. The location is ideal. You are just a stone's throw from the center of Levanto with many restaurants and bars, and the train station is a 10-15 minute walk away. No need to take the car, plus you will receive a pass to park for free.

Excellent stay at Casello68! The rooms are new, very well equipped and very pleasant. The terrace is a plus that allows you to relax or have your meals. The location, a stone's throw from the city center and the beach, and 15 minutes from the train station, is truly ideal. Not to mention, Valentina is charming, available, and attentive, which will make your stay unforgettable! Thank you Valentina, we will keep a very good memory of our stay at Casello68.

From the first steps we took from the train to the last steps we took to board the train, our hostess Valentina took care of our every need and anticipated our needs before we did. The property, Casello68, was as promised, quiet, clean and all of our “food and drink” needs were met by either the breakfast or the well-stocked refrigerator in the room. Because Valentina was from Levanto, she was able to guide us in finding places to shop and means of travel both by land and sea for our trips to Cinque Terre. She was a true delight and we hope to return to stay with her in the future. The best way to see Cinque Terre is to stay out of the towns and find a place like Casello68 as a home base to explore from. Ciao.

My boyfriend and I stayed at Casello68 for four days. Since our arrival, Valentina has been very kind and welcoming, providing us with useful information about the area. The room is very nice and equipped with all comforts. In general, everything is taken care of down to the smallest detail. The location is great, as you can reach the center, the station, the beach, and the marina within a few steps. There is also parking, which is very important in Liguria. Moreover, we had an issue with the local law enforcement (which certainly doesn't help tourism). Valentina not only took action and showed interest in the matter, but she even offered to reimburse half of the fine. It's people like her that make you feel at home.

Valentina and Mirko are the most gracious, accommodating hosts who go above and beyond to meet their guests' needs. My mom and I arrived by train, but I had forgotten to download the map to Levanto. Thank goodness Mirko (who happens to be a taxi driver) saw us, and sent Valentina to the train station to find us! We would have had a time getting to the property otherwise. They drove us without even charging us... and the property speaks for itself -- true to the pictures, new, clean, and very charming. There are only 2 rooms, so it's a personable and intimate property. I couldn't recommend Casello68 highly enough.

We enjoyed our stay in this lovely B&B! Everything was brand new and the location was really good, close to lots of restaurants and the sea. Communication with Valentina was perfect by phone or WhatsApp if we needed some info. Parking place near the B&B (1-minute walk) with a license card from the B&B, or in the garden. You can walk to the beach in 5 minutes to get the boat to Cinque Terre, or you can do it by train (10-minute walk to the station). The B&B has 4 bicycles as well (for free) if you want to do something by bike. Breakfast was excellent with all you need. Coffee machine and hot water cooker in the room to make it complete. If you want, you can enjoy your breakfast on the terrace on the backside of your apartment. Thank you Valentina and Mirko for a beautiful stay at Casello 68!

We stayed for 3 nights at Valentina's and everything was perfect. The location is ideal, a 10-minute walk from the station through the pedestrian streets of Levanto. Close to the center and the beach but in a very quiet street. The room is beautifully decorated, we were very comfortable there. Decorated with taste, very clean, the breakfast very abundant and Valentina's kindness make this place an ideal address to visit the 5 Lands. We had time to enjoy the bikes available for a ride along the sea, it was perfect! We can only recommend!

Valentina very kind and helpful, as well as her husband, who took us to the train station, even though it wasn't among his "tasks." The room, very beautiful and clean. Every morning Valentina brought breakfast and at 10:30, along with the room cleaning, she restocked the mini-fridge. As for the location, excellent from the city center and the beach.

We stayed here for a week and had a fantastic experience thanks to Valentina and her husband. The location is great as it is in the center, close to the beach but in a quiet street away from the hustle and bustle. The possibility to park there without having to search for parking around the town is very useful. The availability of bicycles to move around freely is super helpful. The breakfast is abundant, fresh, and of excellent quality, brought to us in front of the room daily. The room is well furnished and has everything you need. Terrace for breakfast or dinner independently. Valentina's kindness and availability for every request truly amazed us. The only suggestion we can give is to place the safe instructions outside the safe, otherwise, as it happened to us, it may get blocked because we didn't see them, leading to the immediate need to call for help. For us, everything is perfect and if we return to Levanto, we will know where to stay!

The place is very well located, quiet, a stone's throw from the city center and the beach, and a 10-minute walk from the train station to discover the Cinque Terre. We were very well welcomed by Valentina, always available and very helpful. Thank you very much for her kindness. Plus, she speaks very good French, which is a bonus. The room is new and well equipped. The bedding is good and the air conditioning perfect for coping with the very high temperatures of August. The breakfast is very nice. You can have it in the room or on the shaded terrace in the morning. A delight. An ideal place to stay and discover the Cinque Terre. We can only recommend it.
