Liked: Large rooms, clean. Noto was very friendly and nice.

Disliked: Shared bathroom means public bathroom/shower for everyone in the hotel. Luckily we were there in off season, so there was nobody else staying there until the last day. Everything is very basic.

Liked: Friendliness and helpfulness of the owner. Location of the hostel. Extremely clean and everything stated is fulfilled. I would recommend it to anyone for whom, modern look of bedroom and bathroom are not an essential . If you arrive by car, two garages are nearby, and if you mention that you are guests from hostel they will give you a discount.

Disliked: Photos made the property ​​to look much more modern than it is. At first, we were surprised, but when we check and see that all it works, we stoped to pay attention to these details.

Liked: You get what you pay for. The on-site staff is super friendly and very helpful, though English is limited we managed. Room was cleaned daily and the sink in the bedroom helped.

Disliked: The adjacent Backpackers courtyard is very noisy and it was too hot to close the window with no a/c or fan. It was more so that I was jealous we didn't have such a nice area to hang out in.

Liked: Staying at this hostel was like staying with your grandpa! Such a cute, nice man. He made our beds every morning and ensured that we were having a good time. The location is great too, via Faenza is only a short walk from the Duomo and other main attractions. Definitely recommend it!!

Disliked: No kitchen, so couldnt cook. Also, no late night socializing in the lobby.

Liked: The hostel was run by an adorable old Italian man. He was so happy to see us whenever we walked through the door and more than willing to help us with everything we needed. The rooms were cleaned daily and one of our rooms had an absolutely gorgeous view of the city. There were plenty of bathrooms and it truly felt more like a home than a youth hostel.

Disliked: It was on the top floor. Sooooo many stairs.
