This hostel has a very young and hip vibe. I was worried about noisiness, but it wasn't an issue at all, even with our room overlooking the courtyard. The room itself was very clean and well stocked. Plus we were so close to the train station. I would recommend it to anyone staying in Genoa.

Geeat location
Great location. Perfect spot near the principle train station. I booked a private room as a solo female traveler over 50. The common areas are wonderful- well designed and inviting. I was on the 6th floor. There are 2 lifts. However- The AC was not working. July. Very hot in Genoa. The room was uncomfortably hot All day and night. No fans provided (a fan could have helped so much as I was covered in sweat). The only relief was leaving the room a LOT and cold showers ever few hours during the night time. It was so hot I couldn't sleep. I had wide open doors to the balcony felt unsafe but I tried it anyway-- there was zero breeze. I could have paid for a regular hotel and been more at ease-- which I regret as it was short visit. No compensation although the staff knew the AC was not working. They said they "are working on getting it fixed". If you plan to stay there during summer months you might contact them in advance to see if it's been fixed or try to request a floor that has functional AC.

Best ever
This is my third time here. First I chose it because of the location. It’s literally 3 minutes from the train station and from the airport bus stop at Piazza del Principe. Also very close to cruise terminal. Once I tried I liked it. The beds are strong and comfortable with personal light and plugs option. Every room has a bathroom. Not all beds are bunk beds. I was in a room with 4 single beds in now. We can have lots of free stuff, like Americano coffee, free food in the kitchen and toiletries if needed. Also a paid breakfast or take away bag are available. Everything is clean and well managed. The staff is very helpful and kind. The only thing I didn’t like was the loud late party on Friday. Also needs to be aware and be careful as the rooms have 3-4 steps inside. I’m excited to try their other hostels in Italy as well.

The hostel was great! It’s affordable and modern. Very close to the train station. The area is sketchy, so don’t go out at night, and the parking is difficult. The mattress was very hard but other than that everything else was great. Great price for breakfast and a good selection!
