But what a beautiful house! One is surprised by the audacity of the place and the huge teak terrace that surrounds a hacienda-style house, flat on the roof. In the entrance hall, an old Fiat 500 is displayed under the staircase, while the room with its checkerboard tiling and its wall of assembled doors is impressive. The lounges mix baroque furniture and street-art. Vegetation is omnipresent both inside and outside. Very spacious dormitories with nice flooring and brand new, super comfortable bunk beds. Superb bathrooms.

Locale davvero all'avanguardia: personale simpaticissimo e preparatissimo! Location davvero "accogliente", con un arredamento molto "boutique/vintage".
Cocktails ottimi!
A++++

Bel bar nascosto in una corte interna, molto curato nei dettagli, con proposte di cibo e alcolici sia tradizionali sia fuori dagli schemi.

AGGRESSIVE, BULLY OWNER
I was aggressively verbally attacked by the owner and kicked out from the hostel at 10 pm for expressing my opinion on non-alcoholic rules of the hostel. It all started because he bullied me for finishing 50 ml of beer I had from the other shop then his hostel bar.
I came to the from my evening walk (21:15) with 2 last sips of small beer. I was told it is forbidden to drink alcohol from outside the hostel. So I just finished the beer and asked the owner if it also applies to the kitchen when cooking my dinner. And he said yes. So I commented, that it is "The most stupid rule I have ever heard of." and went to bed.
This my comment got owner so angry, that he came to my room, with another guy and started to attack me with the words like "Who do you think you are, to talk to me like that" and "it is my house and my rules".
As they argued and raised their voices, they also pushed me into the corner of then empty room and I had to ask them several times to leave and stop making me uncomfortable by being alone with two of them in the empty room and in the corner.
After a while, one guy left, owner came back, yowling at me, no knocking or permission to enter. I asked him repeatedly to leave me alone, he knew my flight is early and just need to stay until 5 am. I did nothing, just was in bed, asking him to leave me alone.
He left for a like 5 minutes and then came back (no knocking) with a "I called a police on you, get your stuff and get out". So he lied about the police, in fact I should be the one calling the police. But I didnt want to stay in this hostel anymore anyway. I was just shocked that owner decided to kick a girl at 10 pm from the hostel because he just dont know how to deal with criticism.
After he decided to kicked me out I got really angry and called him names. There was a girl, she heard everything and helped me. In the end I stayed in a place nearby.
So message to the owner, I was not desperate, alone, on the street at night, as you wished me to be.

Das Hostel an sich ist gut und die Angestellten sind auch sehr nett und hilfsbereit. Allerdings hatte ich den Vorfall, dass ein Zimmergenosse leider unsere Sachen vom Bett genommen hat, weil es vor unserer Anreise sein Bett war, aber sein Handtuch, welches er als Kennzeichnung dort gelassen hat, vom Hostel gewaschen wurde. Aber sonst alles gut.
Sehr sauber!! Große Betten ✅
