Very nice hostel, good common area, no wait for showers or bathroom, good location. only small drawback is that it is closed every day from 10-2 and there is a lock out curfew
7.8Very goodExpand details
This is a fantastic place to stay in Florence if you are there to sightsee. It is clean, cheap, and very close to all the main attractions. The kitchen could be better, no fridge, and limited cooking facilities. Don’t expect more than what you pay for, basic price means basic facilities, but if you are out sightseeing all day then what does it matter.
