The hostel is clean, very friendly staff and very close to public transportation. They host free dinners for guests and it’s a nice opportunity to get to know people and mingle. They have a towel rental service for €3 and laundry service on site for a fee. Only complaint is the pod doors/storage drawers can be loud and guests should try to be more mindful when opening/closing those. Overall really enjoyable stay!!! Would recommend!

My stay was great. The staff were friendly and helpful, there was a Metro station within easy walking distance, and some nights there would be a free dinner. I do strongly recommend a better beer selection, though.

Just a one night stay. Location was good, room was very small for three. A/C did not work, had to open window and mosquitoes killed us. We asked for help going up three flighrs of stairs with luggage and the employee ((Paolo?) begrudgingly helped with just one. My wife had to bring up the others up as I was returning our car rental. Everything else was okay.
