    Sergio communications were excellent. The location of the flat is fantastic for ex0lkring the heart of the city. Parking is not easy at all but Sergio gave the best possible advice and we strongly suggest Parking Santa Nonia .. only 10 minutes easy walk away ... safe and secure and very cheap for city centre.

    It is a very building. Everything is set up nicely and cosy. I booked rather late because my plans got messed up a bit by a delayed flight. However though I could only come after 10pm they accommodated me in the nicest way. It is the best hostel I ever stayed in.

    So, first of all they are providing hostel service for low price and that really appreciable. This hostel is basically for backpackers but others can stay too. There are around 20 bunk beds so in total 40 beds available in a big room. Bathroom are clean and nice. Beds were ok, Curtains were there so that you can have some privacy. Location 7/10 Beds 8/10 Privacy 9/10 Staff 10/10 Check-in/Check-out 10/10
