23/11/2025: Hi everyone, I'm Valeria Savini and I've read all the reviews and I find them all truthful. I checked into this hostel on September 3, 2025, and today is November 23, 2025, and I'm still here because the quality/price ratio is balanced. I came here with an open mind and life experiences, but what I found truly surpassed all the rumors (utter disgust!!). About twenty days after I arrived, management changed and everything changed. Cleanliness everywhere, toilet paper always available, washed and ironed sheets (oh, it's well known that in hostels you make and unmake your own bed!!), soft, white towels on request, a bar stocked with water, coffee, and a few non-alcoholic drinks (there's no buffet breakfast here, and they don't sell alcohol). Stefano is very kind, as is Elena, and the managers are patient. Don't expect the Grand Hotel; it's a hostel built in the 1980s, but it does have en-suite bathrooms for the women and the double rooms, shared showers with lockable sliding doors, and moderate heating (those who overspend always pay the price for us savers!). The common areas are spacious, except for the kitchen, which is a bit "not too much" for the number of people it could accommodate and could use a makeover. But, again, the service/price ratio is good. All in all, it has everything you need, and it's clean.
09/09/2025: The rooms are okay. The sheets are really clean and you must put them yourself.
The common place is not accessible at all times as other hostels. The stuff is not helpful if you need something as censures or anything from the kitchen if it's not the hours.
I was a bit disturbed by the receptionist. He was kind and friendly at the begging. Soon after he started to require hugs and several times try to force kiss me, following me at the stairs, the room and just making me feel overall a bit uncomfortable. I felt harassed sexually by the boy at the reception. He insist on having feelings but all he did was forcing his sexual needs upon me.By the 4th day I didn't want to go back to the hostel because he is there all the time.
The rooms were never cleaned in the 4 day stay, nor was the shower or the toilet. The hostel is okay, but not worthy for the price. I was disappointed by the lack of cleaning and the molesting stuff. I wouldn't recommend it for solo ladies.
At the common bathroom the toilet pressuring button fail appart when I pressed.. I wouldn't be excited to do there again.
