Very clean and tidy, quiet hostel in students quarters. But a little too far from the centre of town, about 10-15 mins by bus.

This summertime hostel is normally a school dormitory. The place doesnt have a lot of character, except for what the guests and friendly receptionist bring to it. The rooms are great: comfy beds, spacious. I found the kitchen challenging, maybe other guests had better luck with cooking. The location is not at all central, but the neighborhood is fine and the bus service is OK on weekdays until 8 pm.

Not a hostel but a student accommodation. A long way from the city or anywhere to go out and the bus lines are quite confusing. The staff's lack of English didn't help this very much. Also, not solely the hostel's fault, but you have to go to the library to get a wifi password which is right in the city. I'm glad i was only here for one night. Otherwise, it was clean and quite comfortable. I would recommend skipping Verona all together unless you've got a special reason for being there.

There isn´t to much dishes in the kitchen. There were only 2 forks in the kitchen and there wasn´t any glass.

Was an okay hostel. Extremely hard to find and the staff wasn't exactly helpful. It was nice to only have one other person in the room, instead of a room full of travelers.

We were pleasantly surprised by this hostel. Its actually University dorms used by backpackers during the summer. The rooms were brilliant, very big and with great bathrooms. Its a bit of a trek from the town, but you can catch a bus right outside the hostel to either the train station or the town centre. Great facilities.

Very clean rooms, only 2 beds in mine. The rooms were the nicest part of this hostel. It's a really nice getaway to relax and recover from a long trip for a day or two. Staff was nice, but they have no maps, no internet to look at a map online, and couldn't make change so we could get a bus ticket. Checkout consisted of throwing your key on a big pile on their desk. Nothing special about this hostel, but I would stay there again. It was good for the price.

Stayed for two nights and enjoyed myself. It is what it is - a cheap, but decent place to stash your bags, clean up, and lay your head. I recommend it. PROS: It's cheap, you get a free locker to keep bags in, the shower is FANTASTIC, and Ricardo (the front desk man) was really nice and always around. CONS: A 20 minute bus ride from the city center, the beds/pillows suck, the kitchen is horribly understocked (barely any plates, cups, etc, no communal hangout lounge or anything, no computers.

The hostel was very very clean and every room had it's own bathroom which was a plus. The staff was nice and helpful but the location was horrible. Although it was fairly easy to get a bus to the center, I would not stay there again just because it was far from everything. Also, there was no where to get food around the hostel at night except for a French fry stand so make sure you plan your meals in advance! The kitchen was nice and spacious though.

Weirdest place - its way out of town (takes ages to get there via bus); it used to be a hospital so it has a strange atmosphere. but therefore it has huge rooms with even bigger bathrooms (ours had a problem with it, the drain was blocked so the shower flooded the entire bathroom every time you used it) - so the space was nice. it has cheap laundry too, which is good. staff are weird and not really friendly/helpful at all.

Rooms were very hot. I was traveling by myself and got put in a room by myself... made it difficult to meet other travelers.

Well, the hostel seems to be some kind of student home or something similar. We had a twin private room. The room was clean and large, as well as the bathroom. WiFi is somehow complicated to get, because you have to go to the library in the center to get a key or so, finally we didn't try. The location quite far from the center, but nevertheless the bus connection is good! The staff is caring about you. I think for this price It's ok.

* big room & bathroom, very clean, a lot of space to unpack, nice balcony with view on Verona's hills * very helpful staff, providing you with a lot of information on the city (where to go, how to get there, what to see, cheapest way to get there) * bus station right in front of hostel, busses go to downtown Verona very often (very cheap, only 1,20€) * price-benefit ratio was very good
