Reviews of Hostel Il Casello

31 July 2011 John would recommend this property

Liked: Friendly hosts, family-like atomosphere, quiet at night besides an occasional train. Only 50 meters from train station, so easy access to trains.

Disliked: Nothing really. It was a little far from the Mount Blanc hiking areas (30 minutes alone just to get to Aosta by train, which is the last stop), and it took a while to get there from Verres by train and bus.

Liked: It's a funny, slightly eccentric place, really designed for kids and families but we still enjoyed it. Quiet at night. Secure parking and right next to station. Breakfast was good. Internet PC available. The staff were very helpful, some Italian or French was handy. Great value for those on a driving holiday.

Disliked: The shared bathroom facilities seemed limited, though we didn't have to wait. The 'school camp' feeling may not suit all people, though we thought it was cute and novel.

Liked: Good access to the Cervinia ski center and to the Milano-Geneve highway. Clean room and good breakfast considerińg south Europe. Free parking behind the locked gate. Free internet. Funny watch dog! .

Disliked: The railway line goes just behind the room wall and the first train passes at 6 am. However, after 3 days of skiing you hardly notice this :-).

18 February 2008 Customer would recommend this property

Liked: Very friendly owners but only Italy language can be used. Smell inside (from e.g.kitchen) was a bit bad. We were a big skiing team (11 guys) so it was a bit difficult to find any other accommodation for 5 nights nearby Breuil-Cervinia. Luckily we had cars. Reasonable place just for low cost overnighting.

Liked: The proprietors were very helpful when we arrived late after a very long day's travel to find that the hostel was full, despite the webside having confirmed our places there. They went to great lengths to ensure we had somewhere to sleep - a lovely couple and a pleasant hostel. I don't know whether the mistake is Hostelbookers or the hostel's responsibility. Nevertheless, all well in the end.
