An industrial-scale hostel (three floors, 10 or more rooms on each), which is pretty well managed. Central location, 12 minutes walking distance from the Brignole railway station, 30 min - from the Piazza Principe station. Windows face a street with no traffic. Clean, toilets and showers are in a good condition. Each room with 6 bunks has its own toilet and a shower (mostly separate, some combo). Shower cabins are spacious and comfortable. The bunks have curtains, individual lamps and electric sockets (220V + USB). Ingenius system - each guest has an individual code which opens the room, the toilet, the shower and the hostel door after midnight. Good mattrasses; sheets are changed regularly. Individual lockers are of decent size and can be secured with a padlock (if you have one). Kitchen has nearly all the necessary things (but I could not find a corkscrew!), there are three fridges (one is in the TV room) and plenty of space to store the food. Around 8 p.m. there is a kind of rush hour in the kitchen, all 4 available burners are in a high demand. There is a decent pub on the ground floor. Small gym (have not used it), tennis table (same), a large TV set in the common area (same).

Very nice hostel. Staff is very friendly and helped me a lot with taxi and all other things. Much appreciated. Location is perfect, everything is in walking distance. Rooms are big and well aired, beds are comfortable, equipped with charges, lights and curtains, lockers. Three bathrooms were enough and I have never wait in line for my turn. Hostel serves very good breakfast and kitchen itself is very good equipped with all necessary utensils for meal preparation.

This has to be one of my global top ten. Espresso cans were available in the kitchen to make fresh coffee 24/7 so I was able to catch my coach at dawn after a fabulous fresh Italian ☕️. On my first morning I just sat staring at the ceiling in the kitchen. I'm so happy I was able to stay in Genova a couple of days alone and experience this exceptional building in the midst of the city. A memory I will treasure. I always leave Northern Italy feeling like I've fallen in love with it again. Genova did not disappoint

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.

The hostel was so conveniently located near La Gare. The social area was great for meeting people and the bar well stocked. The welcome drink was a nice touch and the 6.90€ breakfast was amazing with lots of variety. All the App key codes were a bit overwhelming but quite cool when they worked.

The hostel is located in a charming building, very well positioned in the heart of Genova's historic center. The shared dorm where I stayed was spacious and bright, with comfy bunk beds and big lockers - a padlock was also provided. The structure itself is very pretty and has a pleasant atmosphere. I much appreciated the kindness and dedication of the Staff, as well as the free breakfast included in the price. Would definitely recommend and be returning here if I happen to be in Genova again.

Best hostel I've ever seen. Facilities are way better than many hotels, rooms were amazing, such a helpful and friendly staff. Cleanness is exceptionally good. Location was great, place is welcomed to any age group, safe, welcome drink was bonus, I fell in love with common areas especially terrace and decor throughoutthe place. .It's the place I'd recommend to anyone. I stayed in such a nice room with amazing city view and large balcony. 5+ star to value
