Bed linen was not included.although I knew it in advance but it would have been better if it would have been included.

We stayed in 18 bed dorm, very big room, enough space for all people not to disturb each other. TIP - TAKE SMALL LOCKS FOR PERSONAL LOCKER (cupboard), because they did'n give it, but can buy for 3 eur. aditional 3eur for bed sheets (for all staying nights). They have bikes to rent (5 eur for day). A and M Lithuania.

Close to public transport and easy to walk to attractions. The kitchen set up was strange (cutlery and crockery in another room) which made cooking annoying (back and forth between reception and kitchen areas). The costs of sheets was also high (€3) so either bring your own or expect this, it meant the added extras (city tax, sheets, towels) would really add up. Apart from this it was a good hostel and I enjoyed my stay.

We went to the hostel only for sleep and take a shower. The bedroom was fine. But it had only one bathroom per floor and many "beds" to use it. However, we could go to the other floor and use the bathroom.

Located very close to the central station and around 2km from the leaning tower. Facilities are awesome. Only problem is that there is only 1 toilet and bathroom for around 20 people which creates a problem in the morning and wastes a lot of time. Apart from this the hostel is really good.

This hostel was a HUGE disappointment. It seems cheap but then unless you are traveling with bed sheets must rent them. It is close to the train station and airport but the area is a little sketchy so if it is late at night I wouldn't walk it alone or in small groups. Even though their age limit is 40 I was in a room a lone with one other girl and a creepy man who was definitely 50 or more.

I stayed at Hostel Pisa for 6 nights in one of the 4-bed female dorms. I can commend the hostel on being very clean and welcoming. The staff were very helpful. My only complaints were: 1: It would be very useful to have small/bedside lights in the dorm. 2: The shower had no hook so you had to hold it in one hand. 3: My only major complaint is the exceptionally long 'lock-out' period from 10-3pm, cleaning should be divided between floors to reduce this.

Cheap hostel. So I got what I paid for. There was however a nail clipping in one of my blankets. Not impressed. Close to the train station but far from the centre. Not so bad because pisa is small.

Very Great Place! Location is a solid 10 minute walk from the train station. Huge kitchen, so far the best one in all my hostel travels. You can actually cook a solid meal here. Also plates/forks/knives are available to use (you have to wash you own) Good party scene and so far the most social one I've stayed at. They have pool tables, a house guitar, and bikes to rent.

In the end I had to cancel my booking because I noticed they had an under 40s policy. Some other places in Pisa had an under 35s policy so it was hard to find a place - in the end I didn't stay in Pisa, just arrived in the morning and left in the afternoon. My Italian friend called the hostel to cancel but they would cancel over the phone but insisted I e-mail them. It was not possible to do it on Hostelworld as it was the day before even though it was more than 24 hours before my notified time

One of the best hostels we've stayed in. Very clean, spacious, with very friendly staff, close to the train station. Excellent value for money! Perfect for a budget traveler.

Very basic but I would not expect more for the price that I paid. It was very nice to have kind staff at reception and the hostel is walking distance from the station where you can take a bus for very cheap to see the top attractions of Pisa.

I only stayed for one night and it was really okay! But I was really "surprised" when I saw that they blocked ALL the rooms for ~3 hours to get them cleaned. there are about 4 floors, why cant they clean them at least section-wise?? I read about it already before, but I just couldnt believe it. This really pissed me off, I pay for this room, what if I want to sleep a little longer that 10 o'clock?? dear Hostel Pisa, please rethink that rule!! after all: good value :)

Wifi: spotty, everyone kept getting kicked off. Staff: friendly. Showers: excellent Kitchen: Large with everything you need. The front door is monitored and the rooms have lockers for good security (bring your own lock, as you always should) It's about 4 blocks away from the train station and about a 30 minute walk from the leaning tower, with plenty to see on the walk. I only stayed for two nights, but it was decent for the price and I'll probably stay there again if I ever go back to Pisa.
