This is a hostel with a great vibe. Practically a communal experience. Safe for women as there are bunch of people around all the time even if you come in late. Bunk beds are comfortable - some people will need to sleep up. Using toilets requires some planning in the morning as there are 3 toilets for around 15 people. Either you get up early or late. Breakfast is provided which is great.

Very clean room, very friendly staff, plenty of free food and drink, such as a welcome drink, coffee, tea, sparkling water, pasta, veggies and more! There are cute and cozy playroom and the lounge bar. The dormitory is clean and spacious, fully equipped. It is very close to the station and sightseeing spots as well. I've stayed a lot of hostels and you are one of the best hostels, no doubt. The price was a little bit expensive than the regular one but it is worth it.

This is a great accommodation option, set in the lovely mountains, on the Via Degli Dei and the German Gothic Line of World War 2. It is 5 kms from the train station at Vado, and 4kms from Monzuno. There are buses to both towns. For an inexpensive hot meal (takeaway) option, I would strongly recommend Sonia next door. You will need to book ahead and the host's will give you contact numbers. I tried all 3 accommodations at the residence - tent, bungalow, and apartment -, and they were all cozy and inexpensive. The host couple are most hospitable and helpful. Great value!

Amazing and more!! This hostel really surpassed my expectations. The services were amazing - they had towels, shower gels, blow dryers, everything you would need, and the staff were really friendly... The communal space was also really nice, and everything was new and clean. One of the best hostels I have stayed in Italy!!!

All hostels in Bologna

Looking for a hostel?

Budget travellers know that there is no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a bit more.
