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.

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!

Beautiful room though one of the beds was broken. Stayed right at the top of the building up a rickety staircase - lovely clean bedroom, great location and friendly staff. Worth staying.

They recently opened up a new building with more accomadation and we were lucky to stay there. It was very roomy and the bathroom was lovely and new and clean. Perfect place to stay to visit the leaning tower.

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.

Decent place, great location, dorms are a bit small and it could use more bathrooms. 25 euros/night might be a tad expensive.

stayed in the newer section - a bit further down the street, but still less than 5 mins to the tower - comfy beds and free internet!

The owner is really nice and his dog Regina is fantastic, but the important thing is that the hostel is right in front of the Tower and really nice!!!

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.

Stayed in the "new" building and everything was really good, location, rooms were clean, very clean bathroom but the keys were a nightmare. I have a bruised finger from trying to get the keys working. An outer door key, the inner door key and then room key and not one worked easily. One night I had to get one of the other people inside to let me in after trying for so long that I woke him up! They really need to fix those key problems.

Everywhere in Pisa seems a little expensive, so this place isn't bad. Right near the tower and easy enough to find. Only stayed the one night so can't say too much, but it more than did the job. I'd stay here again.

Was a nice hostel although the staff didn't seem to know what was happening much of the time. Great bar, free internet, air conditioning. However, electricity kept fusing and the morning of our check out the toilet and sink seemed to back up and there were no staff around to help sort it our. But it is a nice hostel and definitely value for money
