Lovely and clean facilities! Staff very helpful and were quick to address an issue we had with a problematic room guest and provided a solution. Excellent location - very close to town centre and only a 10 minute walk from the train station which provided links to Cinque Terre townships. May I suggest making more of a lounge feel in the downstairs wifi area. Perhaps couches etc. Was quite stark and echoed due to the huge room with no furniture. Otherwise great stay - would recommend.

Great staff, clean place, free wifi, not the greatest breakfast (but free!), and so close to the beach. Didn't know about staying in Levanto instead of Cinque Terre, but it's so close (only one train stop or a beautiful hike away) and a cute town itself.

My only problem with this hostel was that the mattress was either thin or old so I could feel all the springs in the bed. Besides that everything was great.

Everything was wonderful except the limited reception hours and the lack of cooking facilities.

I enjoyed staying there: spacy and quiet room. Very close to the beach. Better than I expected. and value for money. Only, the breakfast is a little mean, but this seems all the same in italian hostels.

Spacious rooms and good location! However, some of the mattresses really need to be replaced. Also, for us it was not clear on the website that other people could be put in our room as well. Nevertheless, it is a good value for money hostel!

Spotless hostel, big rooms, comfy beds, hot showers, friendly staff, (love you Magda!) Even had a beautiful view. A kitchen would be nice but there is a microwave. Its central to everything and the common room & the rooftop are regular meeting places. Absolutely reccomend this one!

Aside from the fact that it is probably more like a 20 minute walk from the train station , especially if you have bags along....And the signs directing you to it are not really adequate , so it is not that easy to find ( but the locals are a little helpful if they are around to be asked)It was a lovely stay. It really is 100 meters from beach in a beautiful town. The staff was friendly and helpful, our room was quite sweet with a very large bathroom. adequate breakfast.ok wifi. Great stay.

A heritage building that is worth the visit for the history, particularly if staff show the earliest portions of the building. A beautiful hostel in a beautiful town that easily accesses the Cinque Terre. Well recommended

One of the best hostels I've stayed at! Felt very safe, doors locked, friendly people, great location near the beach and near the trail to Monterosso. Really enjoyed Levanto and Hostel Ospitalia del Mare.

Nice hostel in a great location. No Kitchen or food facilities (apart from breakfast which is included). However it is close to a lot of restaurants and supermarket. Would stay here again.
