Brand new hotel with excellent staff

Literally just opened the day before so a couple of small issues which were dealt with promptly but will definitely be ironed out soon. Staff were excellent, very attentive and friendly. Great hostel/hotel with a good vibe. I’m sure it will only get better with time. Highly recommend a stay here for all ages.

Great location!

We had a great stay at this hotel. The staff were so friendly and very helpful especially Andrea Arru. We did arrive when the hotel was under renovations which really did not affect our rooms and they were speedy quick doing the renovations elsewhere. The restaurant was not open while we were there, which would of been nice. The location of the hotel was perfect for walking. Definitely recommend

Didn't use laundry service. Breakfast was ok, but worst coffee I had in 14 Italian cities. Also, Expedia stated 1 adult, 1 room which is what I wanted. At check in the staff scrolled way down in the reservation where it said one bed in 8 bed dorm. I felt deceived.

4 star hostel, service on point!

Newly opened so still some construction going on both inside and outside, got compensated with free late check out. Very friendly and service oriented people, systems are not on point yet but they make up for it by being very understanding and helpful! Really good in English so communication is very easy and smooth. Good drinks and snacks combined with games makes time fly.
