+Nice neighbourhood
−We are a family and already long time traveling so we have seen quiet a lot of hostels. This one was tealy a bad experience. The staff were impersonal, there were too few showers and toilets, the beds were poor, and the hostel was far too expensive for what you get.This hostel definitely doesn’t deserve such a high rating.

“dont bother staying here”
+I stayed in female dorm which is in attic with low ceiling. i bumped my head so many times. there are only 2 bathrooms and so you are always waiting in line for the bathroom. staff kept on screaming at me that i am making noise at night, even before quiet hours. they told me i can talk on terrace and then screamed at because people were sleeping on terrace. also there is constrution on the road so you can never be picked up or dropped off and you need to crawl through bushes to get into the building and i ruined clothing.

“Sentita come a casa”
+Tutto perfetto. L’ostello è molto grande, accogliente, pulito, caldo e comodo ed ha un’atmosfera come da casa. La posizione è molto buona e nelle vicinanze ci sono vari posti per mangiare e fare la spesa. Mi sono sentita come a casa. Lo consiglio decisamente.

“Dissapointing”
+- Location is nice - The upstair terrace is very enjoyable to relax
−- There are 2 bathrooms (one with 1 toilet and one with 2 toilets) in the whole house, that’s just really not enough for the amount of people staying there. Because of that, the toilets (and bathrooms) are often occupied and also not very clean. - our private room was just next to the eating table and kitchen. So it’s just really loud and silence hours were not enforced - the mattress is horrible. - when we arrived they communicated very vaguely about when we could get into the room, then were delayed on their own timing, and just never gave a proper explanation about the hostel.
