    I am at this hostel right now and it is 00:52 am, trying to sleep. There are some noisy people in the courtyard shouting (they think that they talk but they shout), they still go on and one of them might be a hostel staff, not sure tho. By the way, the same happened also yesterday, even though I keep warning people they make noise. I haven't been sleeping for 2 days in a row, the room has the most tiny radiator that I have seen in my life so not warm enough in winter. I got also sick, thank you. So no sleep for 2 days, not enough heating and continuing the trip sick, this is not cool I am so sorry. The building is nice, yeah except for 1 of them hostel staff is kind. Included mini breakfast is also cool. But you have disrespectful people all around. This place should warn their guests about noise after certain hours sorry, they are still shouting outside and it is 00:57, you can't sleep whenever you like, you can sleep when they let you!!! It is 01:10 am and I still have to listen these guys, no cool. 01:28, still noise, people shout (I will keep updating so we will see when it ends). 01:55 am and they keep shouting.

    First hostel experience, and it was comfier than expected. My friend and I stayed there one night for 60 euro. The decor was nice, we had our own private room that locked and was similar to a single college dorm room. Staff were friendly. Conveniently located in a central part of Florence with easy access to Santa Maria Novella station, which in turn means easy access to the airport as well. There are so many places within walking distance from here.

    This is a review about the customer service, not the actual room. I had booked 350€ worth of stay at this hostel in 2020 but due to COVID, it got cancelled. They did not give me a refund, but a one-year voucher. Because I had booked a "non-refundable" option. That was fine with me initially. The problems began once I tried to redeem this voucher. No replies to my requests and months of waiting. In 2021, I reached out again and finally got a reply. They still did not give me a refund and instead extended the voucher. By then, my travel plans were already long over and I never got around to using the voucher after that. Is that on me? Maybe. But I wish they would have been more responsive in their initial communication. Also, a simple refund would have been so much better. 350€ I'll sadly never see again. This is my experience.

    (Translated by Google) Beautiful place! I was so curious to go there and last night I had a great evening with my partner. There was music, dancing and good people (drinks were great too!) Promoted across the board. 😁🎉 (Original) Bellissimo posto! Ero tanto curioso di andarci e ieri sera ho passato una ottima serata con la mia compagna. C'era musica, balli e buona gente (anche i drink erano ottimi!) Promosso su tutta la linea. 😁🎉

    Honestly the best hostel we EVER stayed in Florence ! Very central location with lesser tourists and cute little trattorias where the locals go. The rooms and bathrooms are super clean and very modern meets 70s. The staff is ultra helpful and sweet. :-) very pleasant experience and especially affordable. Would book here again! <3

    Never stayed here, but I literally live next door. The non stop music on several weekdays in the middle of the night is, how do I put this, less than pleasant... I understand people need to party and all, but maybe Tuesdays at 1am is not the best time for this. Please be mindful of the other people you share a street with.

    We stayed here for three nights from Tuesday to Thursday. It was okay the first two night but we did get to experience the parties everyone talks about on Thursday. Although it would have been nice to know a DJ was setting up outside our window it didn't bother us much as the AC was so loud it cancelled all the noise. It was nice that we could check in and out ourselves so we didn't saw the owners much but they seemed nice (although more busy with operating the owerpriced downstairs party area then the hostel). The bathroom light died the last night but we couldn't find the owner. It was really close to the city centre and seemed clean so that's cool. No kitchen amenities, no breakfast that they talk about in their google page, no shampoo or body wash just soap. Update: realized we have a bunch of small bites on our legs so we're most certain our bed had bugs!

    Nice hostel; but very expensive, I've paid 100€ for 1 night and it was not busy at all, also the whole floor shared the same bathroom. Got a little bit disappointed because the informator did not show me the locker room, so I had no where to leave my baggage the last day. Cool downstairs area, but it was closed when I was there.

    Positive aspects : Location and the staff we met who is nice Negative : Sleeping hardly possible, day and night and for different reasons : bed is awful; there are parties at night and music rehearsals / lessons during the day and the sound insulation of the rooms is not existing : you can hear what the guy next door is talking about, furthermore (and this is where you can see that the owner(s?) doesn’t care) the toilette door is very noisy when you close it so you’re sure that you’ll be waken up every time people need a night break. This would take 5 minutes to plane juste like to buy a new matelas every 10 or 15 years should not be a burden neither but it looks like it is over there

    Fantastic place, the team is absolutely very welcome and friendly. Seems located in an old theater and it got its own "charme"; the is a big garden inside and when you come in doesn't seems to be in the center of Florence. The rooms are tiny but very well for a couple of days. The shared bathroom is always clean. I highly recommend

    It seems like a nice hostel. However, do not go there if you would actually like to sleep. It's 3.30am and the party in the hostels club/courtyard is still going strong, no idea how we are ever supposed to sleep, it is so so loud in our room. And hot, because if we opened the window it would be even louder. This is actually really horrible.

    Worst hostel I’ve ever seen , they are a bunch of robbers that don’t refund you when you cancel with them in advance. They even send you a shady message to do a deposit on a random bank account to sent them money to have a refund, which is the shadiest thing I’ve ever seen . Don’t go there they have the worst after sale service I’ve ever seen and I’ve backpacked across all Europe and Southeast Asia . I’ve asked for a refund and to cancel my stay 10 days in advance. Don’t go there because they will find a way to scam you , this hostel smells like fraud an 100 miles away.

    Really cool place with super friendly and helpful staff. Beds are amazing - single beds with plenty of space. One of my favourite hostels in Europe

  • 5/5 이희진 4 years ago on Google
    (Translated by Google) Actually, I visited two years ago, but I came to write a review after selling memories. Luckily, I had a dance party on the last night, so I enjoyed it so much. It's far from tourist destinations, but Florence is not that big and it was okay. Having a guest discount at a bar on the ground floor, drinking cocktails and joining a local dance party was still a very exciting experience! And ㅠㅠ The croissant and coffee you gave at breakfast ,, Real life breakfast,,,, (Original) 사실 2년전에 방문했었는데 추억팔이하다 후기쓰러 왔어요. 운좋게 마지막날밤 댄스파티?가있어서 너무 즐거웠어요. 관광지랑 거리는 멀지만 피렌체가 그렇게 큰 도시가 아니라 괜찮았어요. 1층의 바에서 투숙객 할인을 받고 칵테일을 마시며 현지인의 댄스파티에 함께 한 경험은 정말 아직도 너무 신나는 경험이었어요! 그리고 ㅠㅠ 조식때 주신 크루아상과 커피 ,, 진짜 인생조식,,,,

  • 5/5 Federica A. 4 years ago on Google
    (Translated by Google) I have always visited the hostel during evenings and never as a guest of the "real" hostel. However I think it is one of my favorite places in Florence, retro furniture, good live music and not, and above all the presence of a small garden / outdoor area makes the whole environment decidedly comfortable and suitable both for quieter evenings and for parties (I have celebrated a birthday here and I was very satisfied) (Original) Ho visitato l'ostello sempre in occasione di serate e mai come ospite dell'ostello "vero e proprio". Comunque credo sia uno dei miei posti preferiti a Firenze, arredamento retrò, buona musica live e non, e soprattutto anche la presenza di un giardinetto/area esterna rende tutto l'ambiente decisamente confortevole e adatto sia per serate più tranquille che per feste (ho festeggiato qui un compleanno e sono stata molto soddisfatta)

    After check-in we found our room had used towels and dirty sheets, though the host changed these after we contacted them. It was difficult to sleep because the property also hosts events and music was shaking the windows until 2 am.

  • 2/5 Nils v. 1 year ago on Google
    Don’t expect to find any sleep here when they host parties. It is more like a night club that also offers rooms.

  • 1/5 Atelier M. 1 year ago on Google
    We only met staff on the arrival night. There are no commun area. The bathroom was dirty. The room very cold (we had to sleep with scarfs on and after 3 nights, all guest at our floor were caughing). We tried to reach staff members to find a solution (such as a functioning heating system) , and get no chance to meet any nor answer to the message we send. If you’re willing to get scamed: go for it. If you want to sleep in healthy conditions : run away.

  • 1/5 ioanna m. 1 year ago on Google
    This review is not for the facilities is about the company and there policies. Unfortunately due to my cancellation of my flight I asked them kindly for refund or partial refund. AVOID!! There respond was due to there policy there are not providing refund. I can understand if you change your mind and you want to cancel not to take your money back but for this kind of situations they have to be more flexible and have empathy. I am really disappointed this is unacceptable AVOID

  • 5/5 Miguel D. 6 years ago on Google
    Large room for a hostel, beds had dividers for extra privacy. The lounge area was very unique, with a great bar, they offered a free drink upon arrival. It was maybe a little too lively one night, but it was a cool place to hang out. Things were quite clean, the kitchen was large. All in all my favorite place to stay in my month and a half of travel through Europe.

  • 4/5 Astrid M. 5 years ago on Google
    Nice architecture, that bar was pretty cool and the rooms clean. The only thing I have to complain about is that they disconnect the Wi-Fi around 10 am to encourage people to leave so that the cleaning is easier.

    (Translated by Google) Imbarrazanti. Overnight booked for mid-April, skipped over an ongoing pandemic and, after "negotiations" lasting more than a month, still refuse to refund me. Booking gave them time until July to do it, after which the site itself will refund me and I have no doubt that this will happen. Are all these companies that are not repaying the same ones that are receiving state aid? There is something wrong with me. This is a "nice" and "elegant" message or received by the facility. (Original) Imbarrazanti. Pernottamento prenotato per metà aprile, saltato per pandemia in corso e, dopo "trattative" che durano da più di un mese, ancora si rifiutano di rimborsarmi. Booking ha dato tempo loro fino a luglio per farlo, dopodiché il sito stesso mi rimborserà e non ho dubbi che accadrà questo. Tutte queste imprese che non stanno rimborsano sono le stesse che stanno ricevendo aiuti statali? C'è qualcosa che non mi torna. Questo è un "simpatico" ed "elegante" messaggi o ricevuto dalla struttura.

  • 3/5 Kat G. 4 years ago on Google
    Relaxing during the day but so loud at night!! Main problem was there was a loud party going on Friday and Saturday night with many people shouting in the street, and music blasting into the room even on the top floor. You cannot escape it. Gave me a headache and I felt exhausted for 2-3 days. The living room is really cool, the staff are nice, and the jazz concert in the middle of the week was awesome- but it was frustrating not to be allowed to be rest at 2am, which made me less able to enjoy the city.

    Was a mix up at the start as they weren’t expecting us- however we were welcomed so well and the lady who I assume owns the place was so lovely!! The room was spotless, cleaned well, and the bathroom was also so clean!! In a really good area, about 20 mins most away from everything. Beds were comfy, and definitely made to feel comfortable for me and my friend.
