We loved our time here! If you want to experience Ischia this is the place to go. So easy to meet people at the bar. Our room and bathroom were very clean. The hostel is situated on a quiet, accessible streets approx 10 mins from the Forio port. The kitchen is a little small so might find difficulty cooking, but no shortage of good, affordable food in the area. Staff/volunteers really made our time here :)

This is the most amazing host in the entire world. The people make you feel like you’re at home and there’s a real sense of community. There should be much more expensive for the experience that I had was only going to stay in it for two days but stay for two weeks and the people that own the ring hostile and the experience itself was a big reason why much love to everyone I wish them all the best.
