The staff were highly professional and answered adequately to all our questions. The room was spacious, had a 6 m high ceiling. There was a great fitness center at our disposal. And the best of all was the laundry room (free of charge) and the super helpful personnel that not only washed and dried, but even folded our clothes! It definitely exceeded our expectation. There is a bus stop very close! + a super nice small cafe for early birds

I had an absolutely amazing time here. It's very fresh and youthful, with most of the guests in their 20s. Really great for meeting new people from around the world. They have multiple events a day, creative ones, movie nights, parties, anything you'd want. I had a room very close to the main area, yet I had no trouble with the noise, the walls are thick. I was at a 4 people bedroom, one toilet and shower, was decent. The bunk beds are not actually bunk beds, the upper one is properly secured to the wall, you wouldn't here the person moving about above you. The bed was also very long, I'm 170cm but still had plenty of room for my bag az the end of the bed, without touching it with my feet. The rooftop pool wasn't open understandbly in November, but it still looked good. The staff were amazing, very good English, nice, fun, talkative. I'm definitely staying here next time too, hopefully for a longer period.

All hostels in Florence

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.

We were initially hesitant about staying at a hostel but it was actually great. The bunk beds were clean and comfy. The staff was nice and helpful. It would have been great if there was a hook in the bathroom to hang towels or clothes. But otherwise, good stay. There are lockers to store your luggage safely as well.

The property is situated in a very quiet part of Florence. If you like to walk, it is the perfect hostel for you as it is a good 20 minute walk from the centre. It has complete facilities for both work, leisure and long stay. It has a coworking space, a bar and pool, and locker storage/laundry facility. Best for backpackers, students, and people on a budget looking for a cheap accomodation.

This is the most beautifully designed, well kept, fun and in general - best hostel in Florence. The price is good for the standards of the city, which means that anything cheaper won’t be worth the money. Apart from that, there is a free welcome drink and lots of other free goodies during your stay. However, the kindness, the friendliness and the professionalism of the staff is priceless. This all results with a great social connection between all the guests. I highly recommend it!

Stable and comfortable bed, with shelf, night light and power socket. In a dormitory there are a toilet room and a shower room, both with basins, and there are extra bathrooms outside the rooms. No queues at all. The best shower I've ever seen in a hostel. Big and safe lockers. Towel included in the price. In general a good and clean hostel, it looks like a hotel converted to hostel.
