I stayed two nights in a twin room. The view was beautiful and the hostel was in a very convenient place: 5 minute walk to the Piazza Unità and 20 minutes to the bus station. The room was clean and well furnished with two small dressers, a chair and two bedside tables. Check-in was a little confusing, as the entrance door is locked. You have to buzz the receptionist to have the door unlocked, then climb several floors to the hostel. They were ready to keep my luggage while I waited for check-in time. Breakfast is served from 8-10 am and has a good variety of items available. However, towels (hand and shower) were not provided, which was unfortunate because I would not have had the space in my small luggage to bring my own, even if I had known before arriving. Overall, this hostel felt safe even as a solo female traveler and was perfect for a short stay exploring Trieste. The whole hostel is nicely decorated, staff is friendly and other travellers are respectful.

Great central location for the main sights and also for many restaurants in the area. Outside area tends to get noisy with nightlife and the hostel is on the third floor with no lift, so not suitable for those with physical disabilities.

Really good location in the center of Trieste. Very clean and nice large lockers for backpacks. Free breakfast is decent with fruit included too. Would be better with air con. I was ok as I was in bottom bunk with the fan in front of me otherwise too hot. Only other thing is the squeaky floor board. But this place is very chilled out with a really nice reception room too. It’s quite quiet but not sure you’d expect much else in Trieste. Very nice hostel and very clean too.

The hostel is really clean, the staff were extremely friendly and helpful, and the facilities were excellent. A kitchen where you can cook (except at night), a big room to hang out, clean and big rooms, comfortable bed bunks... one of the many things I enjoyed is that at night rest and silence were very important, so if you're looking for a cheap place to stay without giving up on rest/sleep, this is your place. The only thing I'd say as a drawback is that if you're in the city center (Piazza de l'Unità and surroundings), it takes between 20 and 30 min to get to the hostel, it's not in the city center. But if you walk near the sea, it's a nice walk. 10/10 recommended.

La posizione è centrale, la palazzina è vecchiotta ma funzionale. Le stanze sono pulite e ordinate. Il personale gentile, disponibile e simpatico.

Buena y económica experiencia en Trieste
El hostal está súper limpio y bonito! El personal muy atento. Para mi sorpresa, estaba en la habitación de 10 personas y fue bastante cómodo la verdad. Lo único negativo a acotar es que el hostal está en un tercer piso y no hay ascensor. Así qué hay que ponerle fuerza si vas con equipaje grande cómo fue mi caso.
