Loved the artwork on the property, friendly staff checked me in and made me feel welcome in Catania right away, it was my first time visiting so they recommended me some good things to do such as visit mount Etna. I wouldn't mind staying here again, social area met some cool people from all around the world. All in all this was a positive experience (:

Good place for short stays or budget accommodation. Close to centre and bus services. Plenty of shops, bars and restaurants within walking distance. Facilities were good and cleaned daily. Staff were very helpful, the head cleaner is a bit abrupt but she just wants to get the cleaning done on time.

Very cheap and perfect for short stays! It was great!
Mr., 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

It is a nice spot, especially traveling alone. Very inexpensive dormitory accommodations. Staff and guests were friendly and relaxed, and common areas are pleasant. The area around is excellent, near a cooperative bookstore and wine bar and the excellent museum at Castillo Ursino. Very congenial—not much privacy and no frills lodgings, but a good experience.

6/10 Good

For the price it is ok for 1 night. Super tiny room which had a very odd odor which we couldn't get rid off so we had to keep the window open all night, which resulted in very limited amount of sleep due to the noise outside.

Staff was unfriendly and never spoke got bitten in the bed had to ask for ac to be put on come into room all hours bed was to low to get in

4/10 Fair

We booked this private room for one night as was cheaper to stay closer to the airport, than to use an airport shuttle service from our original location. We weren’t expecting much due to the cheap nature of the space, but basic and clean accommodation should be minimum. The bed itself was extremely uncomfortable, we could not use the thick pillows. There was grime all over the floor, we actually wore shoes inside after I noticed my white socks becoming discoloured wearing inside. The window was broken and could not be closed properly so all the noise from outside at night came into our room. There were people slamming doors and talking for hours at night outside our window/in the hostel. The hostel is located in a dodgy looking area. Would be suitable for very young travellers who are not intending to sleep much…
Laura, 1-night trip

2/10 Poor

They didn't answer to me at phone at 9 p.m! It was impossible for me to get there even though I had paid before. I had to find an another accomodation for the night.
Antonia, 1-night trip

Place is ok, stuff od cery nice! Matrace can kill you during one night. Its like you sleep in nest. Its impossible 😭 But the worst the loud. No privacy at all! Sounds like somebody peeing in your room at night. Sleeping and your hostel impossible to connect. Its 3 just for place near center and cleaning. Level of noise its -1
Maria, 7-night trip

2/10 Poor

I didn't like there because first they wanna more money from me when I came at night and I paid more €50 for three night if I pay it what right in website why I need to pay more and the floors didn't be clear and in the room they had too much people and toilets dirty bathroom their thing water and didn't go down and I'm not recommend for anyone personal didn't give attention for customers what they want and just they Focus with earn money but for living there and care about customers unfortunately I didn't saw anything for that
Artur, 3-night trip

4/10 Fair

First of all, the number to the property that is given in the app doesn’t work. The after we came to the hostel we were told that despite the fact that they accepted our reservation and on Expedia wrote that the room is suitable for 4 people, they don’t have place for us. They send us to the other hostel, which was far away from city center, the room had such a low ceiling that we all had to walk around it bending down.
