It is a good place to sleep for less money. The hostel is a little far fro the centre but there is a metro station a beside there. The staff are friendly and helpful.

They were a bit sneaky (like Ryanair); promote themselves as an economical deal then sneak in extra charges at the end ie. City tax AND bedding/sheets. I was appalled! Don't trust them!

If you are looking for a place where you can spend a night, but nothing more, it is a good choice. Only two bathrooms/toilets might be a problem when the hostel is crowded but generally it is good vale for money.

This place is absolute rubbish. I'm not sure how anyone can run a business and let it operate like this one. It's hard to find and far away...dirty and loud. No lockers and the bathrooms were never stoked with toilet paper. When I asked for more I was told "we don't have any". Don't waste your time or money with this place

I stayed 2 nights in this hostel. It was okay considering price, except I had to pay 5 euros more than I expected (for 2 nights in dorm, web site said I had to pay 16.20 more but I ended up paying 21.20. Amazingly the staff didn't know how they calculate the price) there were approximately 30 beds, maybe more or less, but only 2 bathrooms were there, and one of them was broken since days. I'm glad that I stayed there in low season. Good location, not far from subway station and market.

This was the worst hostel that I have stayed at during my travels. It was dirty, didn't provide linens for the comforters, smoking was allowed in the hallways (I am allergic to smoke) and the staff was abrasive. I suppose you get what you pay for but I would struggle to say it was worth even the amount we paid.

just two toilets and showers for the entire hostel, facilities were in various states of decay, it`s actually not as close to Milan Main Station as the map suggests, the area in which this place is located for good reasons does not feature in any guide book

The door of my room didn't close and it was always light in the room because of that. There was no soap in the bathroom to wash your hands, the lamp of one of the bathrooms was broke and the shower didn't stay warm for more than 5 minutes.

My stay was awful! The room wasn't lockedm we didn't have key. The day I stayed there was just one bathroom working, and during my stay it wasn't cleaned. It didn't have toillet paper, and the staff was sleeping so we haven't anybody to complain. The bed sheet furnished by the hostel was stained, so that gave a really bad impression. It has a lot to improve.

Value for money is just about..... It would help a lot if the showers are always clean and warm and nothing is broke inside. Personnel that tries to smoke while guests have asthma also does not help. I would put carpets or something soft on the floor against the echo of noise. And still there is a charm about the place. It is the building and it does feel safe.....

Not very clean, stuff friendly but not more, and everything did cost extra (eg. you have to pay linen wether you need them or not, tax, nothing is included in the price). So attention, the hostel is more expensive then indicated! No kitchen, no common room to meet people. If you are just looking for a place to sleep, it is ok but for that a bit expensive. Positiv: Location not far from the Termini station, metro and center.
