The Hostel was my first in Europe. The Academy has an awesome location in florence, just steps from the Duomo and on the same street as the Galleria dell\'Academia. They seem to have a great group of people coming through the hostel. Its a bit more expensive though. Security is excellent you get a locker with lock to put your stuff in... Cheers

It was the best hostel i have ever been, indeed, and i don't say that cause i had a lot of fun and met really nice people. Besides being clean, everything in the hostel is at the right place, it's clear that the owner knows how to make costumers satisfied. They really put up a great place, and the staff is helpful, nice and has a great sense of humour. I loved this place and i'm gonna come back for sure. Thank you for everything guys!

Very good hostel and great quality and best of the best, it has AC and close to all the must sees! A great plus during Italy's hot summers! This hostel felt more like a nice hotel than your usual youth hostel.

Great place, super clean and cool (important in the italian heat), very close to the duomo and academia museum. Met a lot of people, had a lot of fun there - but not what you'd call a "party" hostel. Oh, and extra points for Ivan's taste in music :)

This Academy hostel will be definitely the best hostel I've ever stayed. Everything is so cool, so cleaning, and people are extremely nice there!
