Cinque Terre - Has anyone stayed at Affittacamere Roberta in Riomaggiore?

Has anyone stayed at Affittacamere Roberta (cinqueterre-camere.com), run by Roberta Veneziani & Claudio Follegot? They have rooms with the following titles: Blumare, Arancio, Fragola, Limone, and others. I made reservations for a stay there in early May of this year, and can't find any reviews.

They have responded quick to all correspondences, and the prices seem economical with some nice views.

Also, does anyone know what the weather is like that time of year (May 11-14). I hope they rainy season is passed by then.

Coming from Florence, what train station should I go to in La Spezia? When I look online for tickets from Florence, it says there are multiple stations.

Thank you in advance for all reponses.

We were in the CT three years ago in early May and the weather was perfect, warm days, but perhaps you would need a light jacket in the evening when the breeze comes in off the sea.

The train from Florence will take you to La Spezia Centrale where you change to the local train for the CT.

I'm not familiar with those accomodations, but if it looks good go for it.

My husband and I just booked a room at the Blumare the week before. Haven't been able to find any rooms either, but from the photos, it looks fine.

We booked a ticket for the Central station in La Spezia

Thanks for the replies. I'm leaving in 13 days, I'll be sure to post a review of my trip, including the Affitacamere Roberta when I return in Mid May.

Hopefully it's as nice as the videos on their website:
