Matthew Larvan

09 March 2010 Matthew would recommend this property

Liked: Amazing location-literally less than 30 seconds from the front door and you're at the tower. Not really a place to meet others as the rooms seemed to be spare rooms in someones flat and I didn't see anyone else. Free internet always good to have.

Disliked: Matthew left no negative feedback.

Kan Tanprasert

01 March 2010 Kan would recommend this property

Liked: It was more of a hotel than a hostel. I booked a shared room but got a single room for that price. Positives: single room at low price, nice room, good location, very helpful staff. Negatives: The room was on the smoking floor so it smells a bit, no internet as promised, a bit of miss understanding about the check in time and place resulting in me wasting 45 minutes going back and forth to the information center. In conclusion a nice place to stay and get lots of rest after travelling, but not so good as a place for meeting other travelers. Would stay there again in the future.

Customer review

12 January 2010 Customer would recommend this property

Liked: it had a kitchen, regular staff were ok, especially helpful was Arturo, good on him, esp'. The experience was overhadowed by 2 selfish long-stay locals who assumed the room to be theirs alone and came in 3-5am talking as though no-one else mattered. The pair had better, more comfy (non-bunk) beds which means double-standards & us/them polarity, too.

Liked: Nice hostel, they have two different places, I've stayed in the one that looked newer, was ok, clean and with good location. Bathroom was ok too, clean, small and only one but not that bad. For one or two nigths is ok, don't know for longer stays.

Liked: would never stay here again, not 24 hour reception, arrived midday had to walk back and forward with my luggage checking every hour until finally 6-7pm the man was there. very expensive for what you get, apart from its location it isnt worth staying. pisa is not that big of a place anyway walking distance between the tower and airport so look for a better hostel!

Liked: the location is very good, very close to the tower, bath room is very clean and new. Staff is very helpful and very nice. They provide shampoo and towel for free, and also they provide pick up and drop off service to the train station and airport early in the morning and late in the night as well only for little payment. Very good place, and will introduce it to my friends.

Patricia Parsons

02 October 2009 Patricia would recommend this property

Liked: Lovely location about three minutes walk to the Field of Miracles and the Leaning Tower. The staff were very friendly and helpful and the booking in went smoothly. The room was large and although we had shared bathroom facilities everything was spotless. Our room was at the front of the building with a view of the Duomo over the rooftops. Was a bit concerned that it would be noisy but when the windows were shut it was quite peaceful. Beds were comfortable and towels were provided. There is a kitchen area which is great as we were able to make tea or coffee with no charge. Lovely after a long journey.

Disliked: Patricia left no negative feedback.
