“Great place for location, was secure and kept clean, lovely staff who were very helpful.”
Easy access and secure gates. Has a bar open till 12.00. Nice retro decor. Outside seating. Large clean kitchen. Clean and secure. Friendly staff. Enjoyed stay. Great location at north end of main centre and was able to walk to everywhere. Alibis from airport stopped next street, so easy and €4. Bus 3 mins to central train /intercity bus station, plus to the centre of town (but this easily walkable 10 mins/flat).

“A beautiful stay with an international feel and true Sicilian soul.”
The best hostel I have ever stayed in. Spacious, beautifully curated, clean, with a stunning vintage retro aesthetic that makes every corner feel intentional and full of character. The staff are incredible. Friendly, attentive, and genuinely helpful with everything. What stood out the most is how inclusive the atmosphere is. They actively invite guests to join their events, which are also open to the public, with live music and a dedicated bar that creates a vibrant and social environment. This is not just a hostel, it is a true experience. It has a very international feeling while still keeping the Sicilian vibe, with art and culture at the centre of everything. A massive thank you.

“Really very comfortable and interesting hostel”
Really very comfortable and interesting hostel. Lots of space, there is an opportunity to spend time with friends in the lounge area. Large kitchen with all kinds of utensils. There is an opportunity to rent a private room with a bathroom. There are some interesting rules, but I respect them and they have a place to be. But it is not very pleasant when they try to take away a bottle of collector's wine from you, because they do not trust you (although you can safely carry it in your bag and no one will know)... An interesting rule regarding the opening hours of the kitchen. For example, I was not able to have breakfast before the flight at 6:30, having prepared breakfast in advance in the evening and prudently put it in the refrigerator)... But this is my fault ). Pay attention to this!

“Very good option for Catania”
Exceptionally clean bathrooms, very spacious dorm with lockers available. Good location for both the city and the railway station (important for daily excursions). Nice social area downstairs (still without noise getting into the dorm)

“Great stay”
Great location - just about a 5min walk to the ALIB bus stop for the airport, and an easy stroll into the city centre. The bed was big and really comfy, even though it’s a dorm. Both the room and shared bathroom were clean and well-kept. The staff are friendly and helpful, especially Gianni, who was superb! They also offer each guest a free coffee in the morning, and it’s genuinely good (not the average one). Gianni made excellent coffee during my stay - 10/10 for him!

“Welcoming, professional staff, clean place with comfy beds”
Absolute amazing staff. All of them kind, authentic and very comfortable to be around. Never felt as welcome and safe in other places. Someone is always there and ready to help. Very good vibes. Beds are big and comfortable with curtains. Big kitchen with big stove. Showers and toilets seperate, so one is always available. Nice bar with good ambiente, where you are also allowed to just chill. Thorough cleaning every day.
