Liked: The staff were so friendly and helpful! They can tell you the best bits to see and where to get great pizza and gelato! Its cozy and colourful.

Disliked: After 12 the common room is closed so you're either asleep or outside. I got a little annoyed when i was on the phone back home and got told to finish. people were still up watching movies etc. so i didn't think it was that big a deal.

Liked: Nice atmosphere, great character, and friendly staff. The communal area is brilliant, good for meeting people. A full kitchen for use if you want to stay in for dinner. Happy Hour cocktails! Air con in the room I stayed in (but not sure whether in all). Lockers for your stuff and a fantastic dvd collection. Free internet and computers too. The breakfast was the best I had in a hostel in Italy.

Disliked: I did think the beds were a bit hard but not the worst I've slept on. The shower rooms weren't the cleanest but okay if you've got flip flops.

Liked: Clean, nice place with big dormrooms, and great places to hang out if you don`t feel like going out one night. Great that they close the commonarea at midnight so that you can get a good night sleep!

Disliked: I got the impression that it was a little bit more updated than it actually was, but it was ok.

Liked: Everything!! The staff were incredibly friendly and took the time to learn our names, even though we were only there for two nights! There was a big cosy common area with a big tv and loads of DVDs to choose from ( you could take them back to your room too!) There was a brilliant breakfast and a communal kitchen and the ladies who ran the breakfast were really friendly. The room was really clean and AIR CONDITIONED which was amazing and we had a TV and a DVD player too! They helped us plan our trip to Pompeii in the cheapest way and on the last night ordered take away Pizzas for us :D

Disliked: Lucy left no negative feedback.

Liked: The staff is extremely nice and helpful, it was easy to talk to the other people staying there, and they offer lots of cool things like night tours of pompei. Also, the bathrooms are spacious and the shower was solid.

Disliked: Its location isn't great, but then again find me a place in Naples that isn't run down and swimming in filth.

Liked: this was my first hostel, it certainly sets a high bar for all the 9 other hostels i'll be staying at afterwards, feels more like your friend's house than anything

Disliked: the only one thing i will say is the hostel is in an ally where there aren't that much foot traffic, a bit scary at night if you are alone (but it is so close to the major places for visit, it's worth it, just don't go out at night)
