Asrama di Bologna

Spacious, functional and well organised. Staff is extremely friendly and helpful. All speak very good English. Despite the closeness to the Bologna railway station the place is set back, quiet and green, with a large outdoor area for relaxation. The rooms are functional, clean, well ventilated and fitted with A.C. Totally recommended!

Nice and comfortable stay. Would recommend and would stay again. Pros: great location - 2 mins walk from the main square, 10 mins from the Main Street of bars, 20 mins walk from train station. Nice and comfortable mattress, good view from room, three bathrooms - two of which are really big, seating area outside rooms, key locked room, 2 girls paired with 2 girls which was good for safety. Cons: no lockers to keep valuable safes, not good at all. Flat pillows were uncomfortable, moving ladder for the upper bunk was scary in the morning. Windows did not close which meant on a Saturday night we were kept up from all the screaming and shouting of outsiders.

This hostel gets a 5 out of 5 vote from me and you won't find anyone as fussy as me when it comes to hostel reviews. I don't understand the mixed reviews it has been given by people staying here at the same time as myself? The staff are very friendly and help you as much as possible.....a special shout out to Ciara who is very lovely. My room was very clean and my bunk had a charging point, night light and curtain. The only minor problem are the lockers are small and square so you can't really get anything in them - they need changing to bigger ones! The meeting area is just a ten foot square area next to the reception desk with only around six seating places and likewise the kitchen area is also small with a single long table for breakfast that can only seat around twelve people at any one time. The main reasons for this is the hostel is small overall and also only has three shower rooms with the toilets housed within these rooms. This can be very annoying because if you're dying to use the toilet and all three showers are being used, you cannot gain access. The breakfast is substantial as it's an all you can eat comprising of tea, coffee and orange juice. To eat you have fruits, yogurt, ham, salami, cheese and salad. For the English pallet you have different cereals, toast, cakes, biscuits and the use of butter, jam and chocolate spreads. There's also a coffee perculator which can be used at anytime during the day. Within the kitchen there's a large fridge to store your own personal food items if you wish. You are expected to wash up all your items after you finish which is no big deal but something I don't agree with on principle. I'm on holiday and I've paid for my B&B so I don't expect to do their job for them - maybe that's just me? The location of the hostel is very good and within easy reach of the main city centre and tourist attractions with various buses a two minute walk from the front door and the main railway station just a fifteen minute walk away

They cancelled my stay with 2 days notice because I did not check my emails within 24 hours, apparently my card declined. I called as soon as I found out and managed to get signal and check my email but they had already sold my room. 24 hours notice is pathetic especially for travellers who are constantly coming in and out of wifi/connection, let alone checking emails while trying to find a way around a new city. Staff were rude and unhelpful, their response to a previous review was incredibly rude as well saying it is not their responsibility and that their terms are clearly labelled when they are not. I had paid a 10 euro deposit and it said the rest was to be paid upon arrival. Everywhere is booked out now as I’m going for the Grand Prix I have spent the past 5 hours calling hotels and hostels looking for accomodation, they are all sold out let alone even something I can afford (booked this 5 months ago for about 100 euros, the cheapest I can find in bologna is now 500 euros) They obviously do not care about their customers, and this is clearly also a cash grab since I got it for a cheaper price booking so long ago, and they are able to upsell due to the Grand Prix. I am lucky enough now (after 5 hours of looking) to have found accomodation in Rimini (I still paid 300 euros for it though), but I now have to change all of my trains, and will be spending an extra 40 minutes each day trying to get to the Grand Prix. They are extremely rude and unprofessional, and if you book with them make sure you have a backup place to stay.

Clean room and facilities. Big lockers. Comfortable beds but no privacy curtains on beds which would make it better! Pleasant, quiet garden, nice to sit out in. Staff were helpful and friendly and flexible with check in times. Not walking distance into Bologna centre but good easy public transport
