Guest Reviews
- Eïmen (10/5): - Personnel très compétent
Super ambiance au bar
Très bien situé
- Milas (7/5): -
- Ehsan (3/5): The facilities and cleanliness standards at the hostel were below expectations. - The hostel is located in a walking distance both from the downtown and the train station. Most of the staff are extremely helpful and friendly. The general social vibe of the hostel is nice. Although the hostel has the necessary facilities, they are extremely poorly maintained. While each room suppose to have its own shower and bathroom, as they are not functioning in certain rooms, the guests use those that function, and therefore, the working facilities get dirty and messy very quickly. I discussed this with the staff and they said they are not aware of the malfunctioning facilities which shows lack of proper house keeping and management.

- Giulia (8/5): Week end in famiglia - Posizione ottima . Noi avevamo una camera doppia, essenziale ma spaziosa. Staff gentilissimo. Unica pecca forse la mancanza del bidet nel bagno ma per il resto niente da segnalare
- Sonja (7/5): - Lage, sicherer Parkplatz in der Garage vorhanden (Zusatzkosten), nettes Personal, ehrliche Informationen zur Stadt

staff super disponibile e si respira davvero l’aria di un ostello.
- Dongxun (1/5): -
- Giulia (7/5): Un ottimo posto dove passare una notte per una vacanza senza pretese. - La colazione.
- Diana (7/5): So, so - Location was central. A 12 - 15 minute walk to thevmetro and main plaza. Lots of churches a close walk and easy to visit, including San Lorenzo. There was NO coffee or anything. Location on street on top of hill with lots of steps to climb to get to hostel from the main road. The bar was always crowded and the reception busy.
- Marco (4/5): -
- longo (10/5): - I taglioni a pistacchio!!🤯😊😊😊
- Nostik (10/5): - I had a great stay at this hostel in Genova. The rooms were good, the beds were comfortable, and everything was very clean, which made my stay really pleasant.
A special thanks to Ayoub at the reception, he was incredibly helpful and always had a smile throughout my stay. His kindness and positive attitude really made a difference.
I would definitely recommend this place to anyone visiting Genova!
- Yu (9/5): -
- Luciano (7/5): - La ubicación y que tenga gym. No funcionaba ningún enchufes del cuarto para cargar celular; mucho ruido por las noches y nadie controlando; no había desayuno saludable siendo que se promociona como un lugar pro deporte Marathon.
- Mariana Alejandra (10/5): -
- Davide (9/5): -
- Jean-Loup (10/5): - The staff was kind and helpful. The building and the place is great, too, thanks to its location, its restaurant and its equipment. Nothing.

- Bocanegra (9/5): - Ubicación fantástica, fácil acceso a transporte y restaurantes, excelente la atención del personal!
- Sarah Myriam (9/5): Ostello di qualità - Ottima posizione, soprattutto per chi scende a brignole. In 5/10 minuti si raggiungono i luoghi turistici come la piazza centrale, San Lorenzo e, poco più distante, il porto antico.
Lo staff davvero cordiale nonostante il carico di lavoro sotto il ponte di maggio. Il pub al piano terra è davvero polifunzionale, offrendo ristoro, intrattenimento e musica che non arriva mai a disturbare chi invece preferisce stare in camera.
Lo consiglio!!!! Consiglierei di munire la doccia e il bagno di qualche appendino o ripiano in più, perché è difficile trovare il posto per tutto quello che serve.

- THEBAULT (9/5): Vraiment très bonne auberge de jeunesse ! - L’emplacement est super, les hôtes à l’acceuil étaient réactifs et adorables ! L’auberge est grande avec une cuisine partagée chaleureuse avec mention spéciale pour les denrées à partager ça fait économise des plats ! Il y a une salle de sport intégrer ce qui est super cool pour ceux qui y resteraient longtemps ! De surcroît il y a des rideaux aux lits ce qui confère de l’intimité, les cadenas sont prêter et certains produits d’hygiènes sont gratuits (pas les serviettes) tel que les brosses à dents et autres. Les seuls petits bémols sont le fait qu’on a pas de sorties de douches (ça serait cool d’avoir au moins ça changer tout les jours) ni même de raclette de douche pour nettoyer après nôtres passages. De même que dans la cuisine partagée il n’y a pas de serviettes en papiers ou torchons lorsqu’on se lave les mains… et pareil dans les toilettes pas très pratiques car on utilise le papier toilette ou le sèche cheveux 🥲. Et dernière petites choses les miroirs sont à contre jour dans la chambre pas très pratiques quand on est une chambre de 6 filles et qu’on a que deux miroirs un dans les toilettes et le grands de la chambre qui est à contre jours ducoup :(
- elisa maddalena (8/5): - Ottima posizione e staff molto accogliente Tutto bene tranne la cucina dove ho sempre trovato le stoviglie sporche nel lavandino questo però non per colpa dei gestori ...
- gerard (7/5): -
- Rosa (10/5): - Tolles Hostel mit super Atmosphäre! Die Karaoke- und Live-Musik-Abende haben richtig Spaß gemacht. Die Terrasse ist perfekt, um mit einem Buch und einem Aperol Spritz zu entspannen . echtes italienisches Flair.
- Blessing (10/5): - Nice place Nothing
