Bathroom smelled bad, but the staffs are good, very nice breakfast. Entirely rooms and facilities were old, and the elevator was broken down. But it is acceptable with this price

1日宿泊

とってもホテルは綺麗で、キャラクターの絵もたくさん飾ってあって可愛いホステルでした！女性部屋で頼んでたのに入ったら男の人がいてそれはフロントで言ったら部屋を交換してもらえました。キッチンもあって自炊できます。スプーンと、ワイン開けるのはおいてないです。アイロンも無料で使えるので助かりました。ただ、夜はちょっと寒いのと、トイレの形が変で、たまに周りが汚くなってます。あと市街地から少し離れてます。エレベーターも4階なのに壊れてました笑笑

Proximo a supermercados e aos principais pontos turisticos. Quartos muito limpos com armario. Iluminação e tomada na cama. Na cozinha faltou alguns utensílios para cozinhar, mas nada que prejudicasse. Banheiro dentro do quarto, muito limpo e sem faltar agua quente

Nice place

The hotel was not very close to the center of the city. But it was ok. Walking was not a big problem. Hotel staff were good and kind. The room was clean but there was a different smell in the toilet. It was not too bad. The beda were two single matress. I would prefer one double matress. The common areas were clean and lovely. The breakfast was perfect. The people working in the breakfast area were perfect.

This has gotta be the best hostel I’ve stayed in! Super clean, nice staff (except one older woman who had an attitude for some reason, but I found that very typical in Italy), they have sunset yoga on the rooftop which is cool. The crowd is also good!

The superhero/comic book theme was a surprise, but who doesn’t want a gold bathroom and a portrait of Thor above the bed?! This place is simple, yet fun. The staff are professional and friendly. The breakfast offers a good range of foods and nice coffee. What more do you need?
