    Extra charge for wifi didn't sit well, especially because the common computer was broken. Drafty building, and winds caused the doors to slam shut frequently during the night.

    Excellent location, great staff, great breakfast. Washrooms should always have soap and a hand dryer!

    I got my HI card and my first sticker on it for free in a HI hostel in Bruxelles and when I asked the guy in the reception to put another sticker on it he told me I need to pay 3 euros for it. Also I think is not cool at all to pay for WIFI. Rooms are huge...like summer-camp ones...for 16 girls or boys.Bathrooms are mixed (yeah....akward).

    04 May 2012 Astrid, Argentina

    It was very difficult to sleep at night, because the hostel has a bar downstairs and they play loud music until late. At 14 hs everything was very clean, at night the bathrooms were already a mess. Breakfast was ok. Price expensive given the service, but the view is just amazing. You can see Venezia and Piazza San Marco across the canal. That´s what you´re paying for. The hostel was not good.

    Hostel response:
    Hi Astrid, thank you for your comments. From next november we will start whit a complete renewed so many of problems you highlighted will be resolved. I hope to see you soon. Best regards, Claudio (Front office manager)

    I had a lovely time. The hostel is right on the water and if your room is by a window, (the boats can be kind of loud) but it is just beautiful. It's really easy to get to the main island and the train station. They have a bar and the free breakfast was nice :) It does seem kind of open to everyone though with people just walking in, so I don't know how they know who's actually a part of the hostel... so lock up your stuff!

    Close to the tourist hot spots, convenient to reach, has all the basic facilities a tourist needs....what else can a hosteller ask for? A great place with good value for money!

    Hostel response:
    Dear Sayantan, Thank you very much for your comments. I hope to see you soon. Best regards, Claudio ( Front office manager)

    Comfortable hostel, great location. If you don't like hoards of screaming kids though - probably not for you. The dorms are all open topped, so there's no soundproofing, and when I was there - a new schoolgroup every day.

    Hostel response:
    Hi Prasanthi, during the spring time we have a lots of school groups and it's not easy for teachers and for us to control completly the exuberance of students. We try to do the best. Thank you for your comments, anyhow. Best regards, Claudio (Front office manager)

    Hostel was in a great location however there were a lot of noisy school groups visiting at the time I was there which wasn't so pleasant.

    look at some of your bed springs - some of them are sagging quite a bit and very uncomfortable - would be nice to have a meat or cheese with breakfast

    Hostel response:
    Hi Michele, next November will begin the complete renovation and even the furniture will be renewed. I hope to see you again next year so that you can change how you think about our hostel. Thank you for your comments, Best regards, Claudio (front office manager)
