Its a cute hostel and i ended making friends which was super nice. Staff is friendly and have breakfast. I think there were bedbugs so something to be careful about wherever you travel in Europe
Very sincere and sweet place. My favorite thing is that it is right in the city center. Everything is very close. Great location. Only roommates are a bit unlucky unfortunately…
Really nice staff, cozy chill area and comfortable rooms! They don’t have gender separated dorms but as a female solo traveller I asked for a female only room and they made it work! They couldn’t guarantee it but if they have capacity they try their best to make it as comfortable as possible for their guests. Thanks for that!

Nice little hostel
Ok hostel if you get it at a low rate.
We stayed in a two man room, which was ok, except the bed was broken. We were only staying one night so I didn't complain, but that is obviously not good.
Shared bathroom was clean and well kept.
Lounge was cozy.
Staff was very friendly and accommodating.

Good location.
Room too hot and too noisy. Definitely needs air conditioner and double windows. Service is great, very friendly and helpful. Did not sleep for 2 nights because of heat and noise.....
Breakfast is good.
Need walk 3 floors to go to hostel.
Room was nice and large. No AC but there was a fan, we were above an area which stayed very loud with people all night and no AC meant windows had to be open but staff was friendly and allowed us to store our bags early
Great central location for the main sights and also for many restaurants in the area. Outside area tends to get noisy with nightlife and the hostel is on the third floor with no lift, so not suitable for those with physical disabilities.
KINDRY STUFF is I hear.
And I was very happy to stay here!
I’m not good at speaking English but the women stuff is so kind!!
Thank you very much!!

People are nice and caring. Facility is ok average.
But: no parking is available (street parking if you are lucky) - listed as "parking provided";
also it is on 4th HIGH floor with no elevator - FYI - nothing about it listed. Rooms are NOT 2-people, they are 4-people, female and male all mixed up

What I liked: 1 convenient, closed to cruise port, walking distance from bus terminal, customer services
What I don't like: 1. no visible sign of hotel (it is list as part to tenant of the building which I didn't expected.2. Hotel is on the 3rd floor with no elevator.
The hostel is really clean, the staff were extremely friendly and helpful, and the facilities were excellent. A kitchen where you can cook (except at night), a big room to hang out, clean and big rooms, comfortable bed bunks... one of the many things I enjoyed is that at night rest and silence were very important, so if you're looking for a cheap place to stay without giving up on rest/sleep, this is your place.
The only thing I'd say as a drawback is that if you're in the city center (Piazza de l'Unità and surroundings), it takes between 20 and 30 min to get to the hostel, it's not in the city center. But if you walk near the sea, it's a nice walk.
10/10 recommended.
I thought I booked an ensuite but that wasn't the case. No air con and it was 34 degrees. Shower very dirty (shared) no t what we expected at all. Breakfast was a bit of a free for all,!!!

Ambiente giovanile e tranquillo. Gli ambienti erano puliti. La qualità del sonno era buona, essendo rispettato il silenzio.
Sympa de par sa situation dans le centre et son personnel ! On a passé un très chouette séjour ! Après les trois étages sans ascenseur ne sont pas pour tout le monde et il fait Ultra bruyant, il faut l'habitude de dormir en ville si on veut fermer l'oeil ;) Les douches sont pas mal vétustes hélas...mais on allait pas pour le grand luxe !
