Perfect for Trekking & exploring the countryside with close access to the Cinque Terre. 🤩

Great place to stay however location is slightly difficult but communicate with the owner and they are a great help.

We had a wonderful time at the hostel surrounded by a beautiful landscape and friendly people. We will definitely come back!

Don't count on breakfast. It's better not to have it at all.

All amenities are present. Shared bathroom, washing machine, toilet in common access. About the kitchen, here you can have a delicious dinner, the choice is not great, but enough. There is also a small bar for aperitifs or something more)

Loved our time here!! Everyone was so friendly and helpful. Having Gloria down the road was so helpful for our planning. We loved staying outside of the busy areas too. We will be back!!

Always a queue for showers/toilets upstairs, would maybe help to fix the broken lock in one of the bathrooms so it could be used as well. Otherwise nothing to complain about.

Exceptionally social environment, good food at dinner, clean, nice and helpful staff.

Flies and insects in the Room, had to clean up at first before enjoying the rooms 😅.

I liked the welcoming feeling and the shared structures. In the rooms there are wardrobes that can be locked 🔒 with your own lock. The location feels a bit isolated but really peaceful and nice views.

If there is something negative it's that the rooms are a bit tiny if it's fully occupied but still alright.

Very friendly staff, helpful, dedicated. Calm and beautiful surroundings, good vibe. Nice garden to spend the evenings. It's obvious that the people who work there pay attention to details and do it with passion.

A coffee machine so you can have a coffee at anytime would be nice but I am nitpicking because I am a coffee drinker.

At first I was in doubt whether to book this accommodation because of the location, it is not in La Spezia and not in one of the villages but it turned out to be the best decision. I did some excellent walks starting from here and the connection to La Spezia and the villages was super-easy. The staff was very warm, welcoming, went out of their way. I ate there every day, the food was delicious, definitely at those prices. The chef went out of his way to make sure we liked the food. Even the breakfast and coffee was superb. The atmosphere between staff and guests but also between the hostel and the villagers was remarkably warm and positive. I cannot thank them enough. I might go back!

The kitchen was terrible. They were understaffed. Therefore, we had to wait during 2 hours to get our dinner order and the food was not good for its price. We paid in advance for the breakfast menu and we didn’t get all what was included in the menu, knowing that we came before the kitchen closes

The room was great and clean. The shared bathroom was rather clean knowing it’s shared. And the place in general was perfect for walks and hikes. The reception explained well the route to go Riomaggiore. The drinks at the bar were great.

Unfortunately there was hair on both of our beds, and the breakfast was inadequate. It was little bit disappointing overall.

We liked the location, however since we arrived by car, it was quite hard to find a parking spot nearby.

Not many bathrooms for number of rooms, would be good to have more hooks or shelves in the bathrooms to put things while you shower.

Amazing views. good lockers. decent breakfast. the common area is beautiful. live music was so nice!

I have meet a lot of persons from different nationalities. That's allows le to discuss and exchange about differents topics.

At night there is hot, because they do not have air conditioning. There is only one pizzeria nearby. The nearest good restaurant "Colle del Telegrafo" is 30 minutes away by walking.

For 6 euros I got scrambled eggs, piece of bread, yogurt, an apple and a cup of juice. Location is 25 minutes by bus to Riomaggiore or 2 hour walking. In the backyard I played ping-pong, get some drinks from bar and played board games. On the second floor, there is a big TV, where I watched a movie with friends.

Cristiano and the team, thank you so much for the laughs, the knowledge and fun times! Definitely want to come back in the future 🥰

The upstairs room was really hot - with beds on opposite walls, the single desk fan didn't really reach either side. This is probably the time of year that I was travelling, but the hostel seems better suited towards very young travelers in their late teens/uni students. They don't have a kitchen so they can sell you food and drinks so it ends up being more expensive than other hostels.

Staff were friendly, lovely outdoor courtyard

Top hostel! Great food also

You must be ready to allocate some time to catch the buses according to their frequency.

The staff were very kind and friendly. The location is perfect for disconnecting from the tourist area of Rio Maggiore, yet there is a bus stop in front of the hostel (mind the low frequency). Delicious breakfast.

All good

Very friendly hostel. All according to expectations. Nice chill bar area with helpful staff

The bathrooms are not very clean, there is no staff available until 3 PM, and you need to plan your itinerary considering the limited bus schedules.

The rooms are clean, they offer breakfast and dinner service for an additional fee, there is a small kitchen with just a microwave and a refrigerator to store your food, the bus stop is in front of the hostel, and Gloria's Tabaccheria is the best. She sells bus and train tickets and helps you plan your itinerary based on what you want to do.

Very nice stay. Have direct bus connection to La Spezia and Riomaggiore
