Ottimo soggiorno

1. Posizione centralissima, a 15 minuti a piedi piazza Unità d'Italia e circa 30 dalla stazione ferroviaria. 2. Staff molto gentile e disponibile. 3. Ottima pulizia generale, sia nelle camere che nei bagni. 4. Dulcis in fundo, colazione inclusa. Non potevo chiedere di meglio!

1. A causa del fatto che l'edificio è abbastanza datato, non vi è l'ascensore; a me non ha fatto nulla, però per altri potrebbe rappresentare un problema. 2. Le camere non sono ben insonorizzate; si potevano infatti sentire i discorsi della gente nelle camere adiacenti, oltre alla musica proveniente dai locali vicini. 3. Il pavimento scricchiola parecchio. Mi sentivo a disagio a muovermi nella camera mentre i miei compagni di stanza dormivano.

UNA MUY BUENA OPCIÓN 🙂

La localización es muy conveniente, justo al final de la calle principal, la limpieza genial y el servicio impecable (especialmente Chiara, muy simpática y atenta). La decoración del sitio también es muy chuli: la sala común tiene sofás, una guitarra, un minibar (que cierra a las 23:00), mini-futbolín, etc. Los baños están también muy limpios y bien ordenados. Conocí gente muy simpática de todas partes y tuve una muy buena experiencia 😊.

Aunque las camas son bastante cómodas (no olvidemos que es un hostal y no un hotel de 5 estrellas), las sábanas de mi colchón eran muy viejecitas y llenas de bolitas (creo que se podrían afeitar o quizás comprar nuevas?). Además, el suelo es de parqué y cruje muchísimo al pisar! Ésto es un inconveniente importante teniendo en cuenta que la gente entra y sale de la habitación con frecuencia mientras otros duermen. Y por último, cuando salí a desayunar a la 8:15 del sábado (el desayuno empieza a las 8:00) no había casi nada!! Platos vacíos con el cartel de queso, huevo, jamón, etc... Creo k ese día alguien tendría que haber repuesto y no lo hizo 😅. En general, tuve una experiencia positiva y volvería a hospedarme allí.

Superb

The hostel is fairly centrally located, with many restaurants, cafes and bars nearby. There's a nice common area that is very nicely decorated. The dorm room is very spacious as they didn't put more beds than necessary, and the beds are significantly far apart from each other. There are huge lockers, but you should bring your own padlock. All the staff was really nice. Unfortunately, I stayed there for a very short time, but even during that time I managed to feel the pleasant atmosphere and good vibes of the hostel. Additionally, I personally found it to be an interesting and unexpected fun fact that Ivo Andrić during his diplomatic career lived for a time in the apartment where the hostel is located today.

Having a few extra hangers in the bathrooms would be nice. There's no elevator, but it's understandable since the building is more than 200 years old. Also the wooden floor in most of the hostel is squeaky. Fans for each bed are a substitute for air conditioning, but I was already prepared for that.

amazing! would highly recommend !

stayed in a 10 bed dorm which was huge, didn’t feel like so many people because of its size! amazing views over the sea and harbour too!! staff were super friendly, and even got a really nice breakfast in the morning!!

they could use a few more showers and toilets, but that’s not so much of an issue!

Comfortable, clean, and cozy hostel

A comfortable place to stay with good enough facilities. Toilets and beds were clean enough. Beds were also spaced far apart, helping to add some level of privacy despite the lack of curtains. Lockers were spacious. The people I shared a room with were quiet and I had a good sleep. The toilets were very private as you can lock the entire toilet door, but don't worry as there are other toilets in the hostel if the nearest one is taken. I liked the free breakfast, especially considering that the price was pretty decent (26.93 euros per person for one night). Kitchen was clean and well maintained. There are also good house rules here, such as putting your dishes away in the dishwasher, and removing your bed linens when you leave. This assured me that the linens were cleaned after every guest. The staff were pretty friendly and nice though I saw a different person every time. This might be one of the best hostels I've ever stayed in, in terms of value and privacy! I would definitely consider staying here again if I come to Trieste again :)

Door was a little hard to find, need to walk up a number of steps with your heavy bags :(

beautifully decorated common areas, generous free breakfast, comfortable beds, friendly and helpful staff

showers were very tiny, as a bigger person it was difficult to shower and not enough space to get dressed after so had to walk back to the room in my towel or else leave the shower and go into a toilet. the only complaint!

Nice hostel

The hostel is very spacious and in a great location. The staff is helpful and it is very clean. Good also for working in the common space by day.

Unfortunately the common space is closed by 11pm. Moreover the floor is very old and thus pretty noisy if people walk around in your room.

I really liked this hostel.

The location is perfect, right next to the harbour. Staff were amazing and so friendly. Wifi worked well and the breakfast was good. The lounge was very cosy and cute. I recommend this hostel!

Towel didn't include to the price. Also laundry costs 10€ which is little bit too much.

A spacious, clean hostel that overlooks the harbour!

I chose this hostel b/c of its location (18 min by foot from the train station) & its inclusive breakfast (scrambled eggs, toast/jam, some cold cuts, cheese, some cereal). The rooms are spacious (w/ high ceilings) with individual lockers; the beds a bit wider than normal and VERY comfy; cozy kitchen facilities; a lovely large sitting room & clean bathrooms. The area around this hostel is just steps from bars & restaurants, 18 minutes up to the Cathedral / Castillo -- I was pleased with my choice & highly recommend it! The staff also were really helpful on basic questions I had...

Its inclusive breakfast had very few options (scrambled eggs, toast/jam, some cold cuts, cheese, some cereal) but anyway it was enough to get me started! Keep in mind it's on the 3rd floor with no elevator (in case this is an issue for anyone)

Great hostel

Exceptionally clean, great location in an older building. The hostel is well renovated and very comfortable. Helpful staff

Very creaky floors, and the street below can be really noisy. Not a huge problem if you’re not a light sleeper

best hostel we’ve ever stayed in.

best hostel we’ve ever stayed in. Everything was done so well, great location, chill atmosphere, comfy beds, great ventilation, awesome fit out, great kitchen with dishwasher and awesome chill out space. Many hostels are hard to spend time in your room, but this one was lovely and just perfect.

the only thing I can think of is that the floors in the bedrooms are a little creaky so can disturb you when sleeping, but otherwise this place was absolutely awesome. would 100% recommend and Trieste is a beautiful place to visit!

Excellent location & building, friendly staff but noisy street

Excellent location, amazing building, friendly staff (they even prepared breakfast earlier for me before an early departure). Spacious rooms and lockers, clean common spaces.

The only downside was the noise from the streets (late at night and as from 6am) as we left the window open in summer.

Good

The bed was comfy, people followed the night time rules. The location is good for walking around the city. The location felt safe and was easy to find! They provide luggage storage.

In my room the floor was extremely creaky so you almost didn’t dare to move that much. There is no AC but everyone is provided with a fan in the summer. It’s a 15-20min walk to the train/bus station but otherwise the location is great! Very noisy in the morning outside. I’d be surprised if anyone slept longer than 8am. Towels are not included and you need to pay extra for a lock as well (1€ for a towel and 1€ for a lock). Shampoo isn’t provided either.
