Excellent for all types including children!

I stayed here with my 10-year-old daughter, just the two of us. This was our favorite hotel of the three that we stayed during our Europe trip. I loved the opportunity to introduce her to the concept of a hostel. The pool area was fantastic, as were the hangout areas near the pool. The rooftop terrace was gorgeous, though we didn’t spend much time up there. The breakfast was delicious and an excellent value. The rooms were clean and quiet and very comfortable. The restaurant food was not amazing, but really very good, a solid option if you don’t want to go out for the evening.

Haven’t been to a hostel this clean. The toilet looks like a hotel. I’d highly recommend staying here. Free towels to use, unlike other hostels where you have to pay €2. Walkable distance to attractions.

Very pleasant

- I had a great stay at this hostel. - It is just a 15-minute walk from Florence Santa Maria Novella train station—I had a backpack and a carry-on suitcase, and the walk was very manageable. - Check-in was quick and smooth, and the staff were friendly and helpful. - The 6-bed room was clean and spacious enough to comfortably fit three bunk beds. Remember to bring your own padlock, 30 mm. - Shared bathroom was roomy, and the water pressure in the shower was fantastic. - Central air conditioning worked well, which made a big difference during the summer heat. - Since I stayed during the summer, there were quite a few school groups and teenagers around, which made it a bit noisy at times—but it was totally understandable given the season and atmosphere. - Breakfast was available for a fee and offered a variety of fresh and satisfying options each morning. - Laundry facilities were very convenient, especially for a longer stay—just make sure to read the instructions carefully before using the machines. - Storage facility was another big plus: it felt very secure, with each piece of luggage tagged with a numbered ticket. Staff are always present to ensure belongings are only picked up by the rightful owner. Just make sure not to lose your ticket.

This property was definitely the biggest hostel I’ve ever stayed in, and it showed. Not necessarily a bad thing! Just full of people. The amenities were very nice, being a restaurant and a few bars inside the property. It did take over an hour to check in though, as it was so busy. The bathrooms inside the shared rooms were not very clean, and I was holding my breath every time I went in. Other than that, an absolutely beautiful hostel in a good part of town and definitely a deal for the price.
