If you prefer a quiet room with great facilities and welcoming staff, then this is for you, even better its location situated close by to the main transportation hubs and the nearby groceries, restaurants. plus it's a great value for money. We stayed here on two separate periods of a total of six nights, and it was the best we had in Italy. Location: walking distance from bus and metro stations to take you all over Genoa, the main train station is right in about 5 minutes walking from the hotel, taking you to the beautiful beach of Camogli within 35 minutes and only with 3.4 Euro PP. Rooms: it's quite a practical room in terms of size and with a private bathroom in the room that fits perfectly into the area. The room had AC which was super great in the hot days of August as the previous apartment we stayed in had no AC units, only fans. Beds are very comfortable and you can enjoy a deep sleep despite that the room window is straight on the main street but the double glass keeps the noise away. Kitchen and dining table: this is the best in terms of value of money, a fully equipped kitchen and dining table where you can enjoy eating and meeting new people at the same time, the also had a spate place for sitting and reading book from the shelf of books they had or simply using your laptop to write a review about the hotel as I'm doing now! Need to mention that the room had a smart TV unit which was a great addition plus a Netflix included. The staff were amazing in their welcoming and hospitality both Fabrizio and Verona, Fabrizio was so nice that he waited for us to do our late checking due to train delays and was kind enough to share with us tips and locations of good restaurants and places. In General Genoa is a very beautiful city, it might be underrated due to the influence of other cities like Rome or Milan but really Genoa has a lot to offer and what made our stay a great one in Genoa is the Le Stanze del Piccadilly.

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
