YHA Ostello per la Gioventu Genoa Reviews

A quiet hostel with a terrace and a view on the port. Bus n°40 runs from "Genova Brignole train station" to the hostel in about 45 minutes. Quite long but actually it is the only hostel in Genova. I 've been surprised by the great cleanliness of the bathrooms and toilets. Rooms are spacious, clean and luminous. Atmosphere is good and staff is nice. Ok for a recommendation.

What a great hostel!! The staff was especially knowledgeable and even though it's a bit out of the way, it's a gorgeous location, easy to get to and a very enjoyable ride. Highly recommend staying here.

Great place to take a break from all the big city Tourist areas. Nice and quiet. Great transportation to and from metro.spotlessly clean with many private showers and toilets. The information for sights to see was very well presented and also how to get there. The staff was very nice and very helpful. Only downside, you don't have a kitchen. Large facility dorm type.

Location was good, less than a half hour walk from the train station. It was the cheapest option and was very nice and super clean. Some said it was creepy but it was nice having our own room. Definitely would recommend it and stay there again! Beautiful view from the top of the hill!

This was a great hostel!! staff was very helpful and the location is Beautiful..

The staff at the hostel were very helpful. The location of the hostel is on top of the hill so reaching there was quite an adventure as even our car navi got confused sometimes because of the crazy roads. The hostel doesn't have any game rooms just some place to sit and eat. The view from the hostel is quite good and the Forts of Genoa are easily accessible from the hostel.

really nice place, but we had some problems in the morning, when we had to pack and leave, but there was no light... and also the heat was off... the stuff explained that this is the way they save the energy

This hostel was a little.. odd to say the least... When my girlfriend and I arrived, we were literally the ONLY ones staying in the building. It was a little creepy to say the least because the dormitory style rooms gave off an 'asylum' kind of feel. You won't find any character in these walls, although the staff are very helpful. The location was a little out of the way as well. Take bus number 40 if you want to get there and ask the bus driver for the stop once you're near the top of the hill.
