Nationality Stayed Gender Age Group Overall Rating - 31st July 2008 Male 31-40 3/5 Comments: Nice place to sleep, comfortable room with airconditioning. Not easy to find the place as well in the street as in the building, there's not external sign that remind us that we are at the right place... The staff is helpfull and availaible for any request.

Nationality Stayed Gender Age Group Overall Rating Spain 29th June 2008 Female 25-30 4/5 Comments: The staff is very charming and helpful. The rooms are well equiped, even with a fridge. If you have a car, it's very easy to find a place to park in that area. To reach the city center, there's a nice walk through one of the main streets of the city, Via Etnea. I strongly recommend it.

Nobody spoke english so we had some troubles to find the place, but otherwise no problem. The owner and other members of staff were very sweet and friendly! Thank you, had a very pleasant stay.

Nationality Stayed Gender Age Group Overall Rating Canada 15th May 2007 Female - 1/5 Comments: DO NOT BE MISLEAD by the advert for this hostel! Although the advert states that the hostel is located in \'beautiful piazza Bordhighera\', it was in fact quite a dodgy area inhabited by scores of homeless cats and rubbish bins. It states that breakfast should be included, but we only got 2 days of breakfast out of our 4 day stay. Our room and toilet were only cleaned once and we ran out of loo paper! There is no lobby or 24h reception desk. The rooms are in a private flat and it was quite an endeavor to find out how to get into the building since the owners only spoke Italian. The \'lobby\' consisted of a small hallway joining the rooms with an expresso machine. There is no restaurant, bar, nightclub, etc. as stated in the advert. The building was fairly secure but there is no key card access. I doubt very much that there is also WiFi or meeting facilities either. Although the rooms were pretty and the owners seemed pleasant, overall I would not recommend staying at this hostel.

Nationality Stayed Gender Age Group Overall Rating Brazil 11th April 2007 Male 18-24 2/5 Comments: It was really my worst experience in a Hostel. The owne wasn't there when we arrived so he phoned a guest and made her wake up to open the door for us. The only time we saw the owner was the day we were living and he knocked at our door at 8am (waking us up) to tell us that we had to pay the stay. It was really incredible! This is not mentioning the fact that we were supposed to have the breakfast included, but we have never seen any food in the hostel...
