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.

Hi! I took a bus from the airport to the hotel. The bus terminates at the square, not far from the hotel. She lived in a room for men and women. No one bothered anyone, it was comfortable. I left early in the morning for different Italian cities that are nearby (Florence, Venice, Padua, Ravenna, Fabriano) and instead of breakfast they left me a bag with an apple, cookies, a bun and juice in advance. At the end of my stay, I found breakfast: boiled eggs, sliced tomatoes and cucumbers, cupcake, bread, oatmeal, yogurt. That's enough. The hotel is close to the center. There is a good Pam supermarket on the way to the center. I took the Marconi Express from the train station from the hotel to the airport. The most pleasant thing about the hotel is the staff. Very friendly girls Sonya and Katerina, who answered all my questions. Thanks!!! You can ask for a city map at the hotel.

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!!!

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!

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.
