Good hostel! I thought the facilities left a bit to be desired and it’s very small. It’s the only real hostel in the area and for that reason totally worth it. Decent price but a little bare bones for a hostel and only two one stall bathrooms for th entire hostel, so not ideal sometimes. Definitely made some friends here and the check in process was very confusing, but this was a good stay for the location

There aren’t many affordable hostel options in the Cinque terra. As this hostel is about the only choice, you are first required to pay in cash (forget about a refund if things go south)- communication with the host wasn’t especially easy - unless you were able to find the international number, she was responsive. Notable issues had to do with heat in the space & hot water - both reliant on a system that seemed to malfunction often. Host wasn’t available to solve issues - only texting dire...

Kleines Hostel, wo man sehr schnell mit den anderen in Kontakt treten kann - es waren alle super lieb. Für die Ankunft im Hostel am besten die Hostel Inhaberin auf WhatsApp anschreiben. Danach erhält man eine ausführliche Beschreibung mit Fotos und Videos. Aufgrund der vielen Ebenen in Riomaggiore war es etwas schwierig die Unterkunft zu finden. tatsächliches "Check-in" gibt es nicht. Es war auch etwas kalt in der Nacht in der Unterkunft. Aber gute Lage! :)

While a bit challenging to find, this hostel is a terrific place to stay when exploring Cinque Terrre. Everything was very clean, with a nice view and very close to the train line, making getting to the different towns super easy. Comfy bed, big locker, provided towel. The only issue I experienced was the windows flying open a couple times throughout the night as there was a big storm and the windows were a bit difficult to secure. Overall, a great place to stay when traveling to Cinque Terre!

I went during the off season, it was just me and my friend I was traveling with staying here. So definitely not social at all this time of year. Location is perfect though, many of restaurants are just right out front, close to the station. Everything was clean and kept up with!

VERY difficult to find. i believe the hostel owner had sent a video to all the other guests showing how to get there and what to do, but i didn’t receive that and it was very very confusing. the hostel itself was fine and people were nice and having a balcony was lovely!! super good spot to see all of cinque terre and riomagiorre is gorgeous!

Such a greta location however was confusing navigating to find hostel. Definitely should have been informed to contact the number upon arrival to make it easier, after long day of travel this was stressful!! However the rest of my stay was brilliant, great company, good facilities and clean. I would stay again if I come back.

Very hard to find. No prior communication with host. A very terrible experience and I would never book again.

As stated in other reviews it's more of a group house situation than a hostel. Make sure you ask the chat when booking for the phone number because that's how she tells you to get your key and the way to the hostel (since there is no check in). People are usually super cool and welcoming when you get there and kinda help you figure it out. Amazing hiking (do riomaggiore to volastra to corniglia for free and stop at the winery right along the trail past volastra it's amazing overlooking grapes)

Por cerca uno de los mejores lugares que me he quedado, no lean los comentarios de las camas, o la limpieza o que es difícil encontrarlo, la oportunidad de poder dormir en riomaggiore es la mejor vibra que he podido conseguir en todos los viajes que he tenido, disfruta tu paseo y conoce amigos el sitio es lo menos cuando tienes un pueblo tan hermoso a solo pasos

L’emplacement est très bien. La cuisine est très peu équipée et pas très fonctionnelle. Il manque de rangement pour y mettre un peu de provisions. Il n’y a que deux ronds qui fonctionnent à peine. Une seule poêle pour tout le monde. Pas de linge pour essuyer la vaisselle. Les matelas sont à changer. Le fait que le petit salon est isolé et que la terrasse donne directement dans le dortoir, il est difficile d’être au calme dans ce dernier.

Great. I think there could have been clearer instructions on how to get into the hostel.

Great location only a minute walk to be in the centre of town. Felt more like a share house with one large room, a smaller one, 2 bathrooms, a kitchen and small lounge area. The balcony was great with beautiful views. Message owner on whatsapp to receive checkin details because there are no on site staff.

I lovedddd this hostel!! But it might not be for everyone! Honestly I found it easier to find than other reviews said. If you use Google maps and pay attention to signs or ask locals you can find easily! The lady running it is super sweet and by having it be two big rooms with bunks it creates a super social vibe. Good kitchen facilities, bathrooms and amazing terrace to drink or play cards on! Would totally recommend

Great hostel - as others have said it's more like an Airbnb where random travellers come together and have a great time. Really social, awesome location. Not fancy but don't really have anything bad to say.
