Nice hostel in a good location. Beds weren’t super comfy, showers were a bit hard to manage, and the bathrooms lock was a bit finicky. But it had a great atmosphere, big kitchen, heating and hot water, and was consistently very clean.

Great hostel in Palermo. Very near many good restaurants, cafés, and bars. 10-minute walk to the subway. It is on a quiet but iconic street. It has a nice courtyard. The facilities are clean. The staff is attentive. It is definitely safe/secure. Not a party hostel, but a good mix of travelers. A perfect base for exploring Palermo.

Black mold In shower. I got a private room and the shower had a tremendous amount of black mold in the tiles. The water head was broken. Toilet seat broken. I spent one night and immediately checked out - they said they would have the manager reach out about this bad experience now they will not reply to me about a refund. We documented the room with videos and photos. Avoid this hostel - plenty of others in BA. I will now have to dispute my charges through my credit card.
