If you prefer a quiet room with great facilities and welcoming staff, then this is for you, even better its location situated close by to the main transportation hubs and the nearby groceries, restaurants. plus it's a great value for money. We stayed here on two separate periods of a total of six nights, and it was the best we had in Italy. Location: walking distance from bus and metro stations to take you all over Genoa, the main train station is right in about 5 minutes walking from the hotel, taking you to the beautiful beach of Camogli within 35 minutes and only with 3.4 Euro PP. Rooms: it's quite a practical room in terms of size and with a private bathroom in the room that fits perfectly into the area. The room had AC which was super great in the hot days of August as the previous apartment we stayed in had no AC units, only fans. Beds are very comfortable and you can enjoy a deep sleep despite that the room window is straight on the main street but the double glass keeps the noise away. Kitchen and dining table: this is the best in terms of value of money, a fully equipped kitchen and dining table where you can enjoy eating and meeting new people at the same time, the also had a spate place for sitting and reading book from the shelf of books they had or simply using your laptop to write a review about the hotel as I'm doing now! Need to mention that the room had a smart TV unit which was a great addition plus a Netflix included. The staff were amazing in their welcoming and hospitality both Fabrizio and Verona, Fabrizio was so nice that he waited for us to do our late checking due to train delays and was kind enough to share with us tips and locations of good restaurants and places. In General Genoa is a very beautiful city, it might be underrated due to the influence of other cities like Rome or Milan but really Genoa has a lot to offer and what made our stay a great one in Genoa is the Le Stanze del Piccadilly.

An industrial-scale hostel (three floors, 10 or more rooms on each), which is pretty well managed. Central location, 12 minutes walking distance from the Brignole railway station, 30 min - from the Piazza Principe station. Windows face a street with no traffic. Clean, toilets and showers are in a good condition. Each room with 6 bunks has its own toilet and a shower (mostly separate, some combo). Shower cabins are spacious and comfortable. The bunks have curtains, individual lamps and electric sockets (220V + USB). Ingenius system - each guest has an individual code which opens the room, the toilet, the shower and the hostel door after midnight. Good mattrasses; sheets are changed regularly. Individual lockers are of decent size and can be secured with a padlock (if you have one). Kitchen has nearly all the necessary things (but I could not find a corkscrew!), there are three fridges (one is in the TV room) and plenty of space to store the food. Around 8 p.m. there is a kind of rush hour in the kitchen, all 4 available burners are in a high demand. There is a decent pub on the ground floor. Small gym (have not used it), tennis table (same), a large TV set in the common area (same).

Staff were incredibly accommodating. I had had a rough day with my bag being stolen on the way and not only could they assist me but one member of staff even cooked me a meal as I had had my wallet stolen and had no food.

It took me a while to write because I had no words to describe my stay. It was simply incredible, I spent 1 month traveling around Italy jumping from hostel to hostel and this was without a doubt the best place I stayed in ALL of Italy! The environment was very welcoming. In other hostels the team generally tried to promote events for guests to socialize, but here everyone socialized naturally, at breakfast, in the hall, in the corridors, in the elevator, anywhere. The staff was also one of the highlights of the stay, everyone was very happy and smiling, almost as if they were happy to see us. It was really fun talking to everyone, especially with Habi (I don't know if that's how you spell it). In short, if you are looking for a place to stay in Genova, you can choose this one without fear! Because I would go back there another 100 times if I could :) Thank you!

The hostel is located in a charming building, very well positioned in the heart of Genova's historic center. The shared dorm where I stayed was spacious and bright, with comfy bunk beds and big lockers - a padlock was also provided. The structure itself is very pretty and has a pleasant atmosphere. I much appreciated the kindness and dedication of the Staff, as well as the free breakfast included in the price. Would definitely recommend and be returning here if I happen to be in Genova again.

The hostel is lovely and cozy. It feels more like an Airbnb or a house than a hostel. The location is beautiful and framura is a lovely little town. Sonja is a great and welcoming host as well.

A really great hostel to stay in. Safe, clean, good location (you can easily reach Cinque Terre, Portovenere and Lerichi by train/bus) and above all a family-friendly atmosphere. The hostel team is not only available and giving you good advice to make the most of your stay but they are also bring people together around dinners and other activities. So as a solo traveler I really recommend this hostel.

The backpackers hostel. A lot of attention to detail for a solo traveler. The staff is super friendly and ready to help with anything and know how to offer recommendations. Great amenities with towels, free food, mosquito spray, and whatever you might need. Small space is good for socializing too.

Nice hostel, friendly staff and great location in the city. I could leave my luggage early at the day of arrival and when I didn't have any cash they spared from me the deposit for the lock. The hostel has everything you need and even curtains at the dorm beds. Breakfast is not huge, but enough for a free meal.

Honestly, the best hostel I've ever been until now. It was well located, there was a ton of interesting people there, including the workers. There is a bar at the lobby with very abordable food and drinks.
