What people say

"Extremely central location & the best city view! The hostel is located in between two main squares and has an amazing view from its rooftop bar. All the rooms have at least one balcony (mine had 3!) to the main street! WHY THIS HOSTEL? - Breakfast included in the price (croissant + jam, fruit salad, juice or water, coffee) + you can have it on a balcony with a view to the main street! - Every evening staff makes a Pasta Dinner which is completely FREE & allows you to get to know other people; - There is a rooftop bar with the best views in Catania! It is also available for anyone from outside, you only need to book (hostel guests can go there at any time); - There is a separate place upstairs for remote workers (a quiet place with equipment for work). - The interior design of common areas looks like in a museum ROOMS: - Each bed has curtains, a reading light, and lots of sockets - A personal locker (but you need to bring your lock) - Air conditioning (ask for a controller at the check-in) - Some rooms have a private bathroom, but usually it is with a shared one - A few tables & chairs in the room What may be uncomfortable? - There are a few rooms in a separate building (only the entrance is different) which makes it a little bit uncomfortable to move in every time if you want to spend time in the main hostel areas.

"Hostel is located in the heart of Catania with access to beautiful rooftop from where you can admire main square of the city and stunning vulcano. Not only views are the highlights of the hostel. The Hostel is located inside Palazzo Sant'Alfano built in 1600 by the Catania nobility. Inside you can admire the large rooms with frescoes and precious marbles. "
