    The staff is amazing, super friendly. There's a kitchen and open space with all that you need. The beds were fine with lights and electrical socket. The bathroom and shower offer enough privacy I don't know why there are some comments complaining...

    It’s a 30-minute walk from the bus station but is easy to find. And is just 10 minutes away from the historic center of Matera. Location is the best thing about this hostel

    I arrived by bike and staff helped me store my bike in a safe space inside. Kitchen had cooking condiments and tea. Bathrooms were spacious. Beds were quiet. Lockers were roomy. Outlets and reading light next to beds.
