Manena Hostel Reviews

The pizza delivered is perfect!

Thanks Guys! I really enjoyed my stay! The only constructive criticism I offer would be to somehow minimize the curfews/closing hours... I would definitely recommend Manena to friends of mine traveling through Genova.

friendly staff, good location, great hostel

This hostel is not very big. Only 2 dorm rooms but its nice because not a lot if people. Living room was comfortable and the location was great. Walking distance to everything we saw. I enjoyed our stay there

Fantastic hostel, perfect location, fab facilities, fully equipped kitchen, helpful staff, just ask, comfy beds, so nice to finally have a duvet, clean, warm showers, lovely homely/family feel, amazing finally having a sofa to sit on. I recommend this and wish all my hostels were like it!

I thought Manena Hostel is quite difficult to find from the directions (but that could just be me!). It's about a 15 min. walk from the train station. Once inside there are large secure lockers to store your belongings. The bunk beds are very comfortable. The showers are clean. The breakfast is delicious!! Fresh focaccia bread, cereal, bread roll, tea and coffee. The staff are lovely. Especially Manuel! He is very patient when teaching Italian! I would highly recommend staying at Manena Hostel.

Horrible area of town - they say it's a small walk but it seemed to take forever

GOOD CLEAN HOSTEL.THE STAFF DID NOT INTERACT WITH THE US IN THE HOSTEL BUT WERE HELPFUL WHEN ASKED.GOOD KITCHEN FOR COOKING AND CHILLING.SUPERMARKETS NEARBY.REMEMBER:THEY WILL NOT ALLOW IN THE HOSTE EVER BETWEEN 12-3.30PM,NO BED LIGHTS,RECEPTION CLOSES 1.30AM.LOCKERS FOR EVERYONE WITH KEY.YOU CAN BUY BREAKFAST BIT EXPENSIVE FOR THE 4 EUROS.

The one door on the bathroom broke and the staff started fixing it immediately. Staff was very helpful and eager to please and tried very hard with a language barrier with success. Comfy rooms and beds, secure beds with good steps. Great kitchen. Great location, right off of the main street, Strata Nuova with all the Unesco world heritage site palaces. No locks on the bedroom doors but good, big lockers. Were accommodating with special requests.

The hostel is in a nice location and it was clean and the staff were helpful so I was happy to stay there.

The hostel was nice. I stayed in a 12 mixed bed dorm for 2 nights. It wasn't bad located and quite easy to get from the train station. Despite breakfast was not included, it was worth to pay the €4 for it...it included the typical Italian products...good to start the day! Wifi worked ok and you have access to the kitchen if you want to prepare something for dinner.

This hostel was exellent choice for travellers who don't wish to pay alots for hotel and want to get to know new people. The staff was really friendly and helpful, hostel had good wifi connection and good space in kitchen. The location was exellent to go pretty much anywhere in Genova or from Genova. I highly recommend!

this hostel is in an excellent position, in the earth of the old city, and not far from the main train station. its rooms are spacious and clean, it is also good for meeting people. the best choice in genoa.

Excelent place, really cool and friendly atmosphere. Always ready to help and assist and also the rooms are clean and beds confortable. The kitchen is fully equiped and you can easely cook whatever you want. Deffinetly a place that I would come back again.

Nice little Hostel, in a good location, could do with some more showers though, bit of a queue in the morning!!

it was quite a fun place to stay. beds were quite comfy and the quilt was warm

GOOD:HOT WATER,CLEAN,CENTRAL HOSTEL,WELL EQUIPED KITCHEN&A PLACE TO CHILL WITH OTHER TRAVELLERS.THE STAFF DID NOT INTERACT WITH US IN THE HOSTEL BUT WERE HELPFUL WHEN NEEDED.BEAWARE:THEY ARE CLOSED BETWEEN 12-3.30PM!THEY WILL NOT LET YOU IN AT ALL!NO LIGHTS BY THE BEDS AND THE WORD 'CURFEW' IS USED,MAYBE 'RECEPTION IS CLOSED AT 01.30AM',IS BETTER.

Not worth the money

This is a very nice Hostel located right in the centre of Genova. There is a kitchen and common room. The breakfast was not included but is totally worth the 4€ extra. Rooms and Bathrooms are clean.

Good hostel and a really good location, just a few minutes walk to the most important things. The staff helped me very well with all kinds of non touristic things I should also see and how I could walk, it was very helpfull. Unfortunately there were not that many people traveling like me to meet there, but that can be the time of the year.
