great location, clean sheets, secure rooms

There's no name on the building. It's difficult to enter the hostel for the first time. Later on once you have the codes it's easy. You have to put your own bedsheets and bed linen. It's just kept on the bed for you. 1 toilet+shower between 11 people in my dorm. No bedside organizer/small table for every bed. Some beds did not have a mini-lamp and charging point. No space for hanging clothes or jackets. Heaters were not working and window shades were also not closing. Bathroom door was a pain to lock every time! Overall the place needs more maintenance.

Great location - 5 min walking from Herculanium archaeological park and 10 min walking from Ercolano Scavi train station. Many eateries available in 10 min walking distance. 20 min walking from a small beach. Good connectivity for Vesuvius and Pompeii visits - better to stay here for these locations than Napoli. No crowd, noise and traffic as compared to Napoli. Clean bathrooms, beds, linen, kitchen, common area. Terrace - a great chilling place. Common room - many games and small bar + vending machine for snacks. Rosie the caretaker/manager was very friendly and helpful. Also offers an off the record good meal in a reasonable price.

– for no apparent reason, it was very empty when I was there ... there seemed to be almost no ypung travellers in Ercolano at this particular time. That's a pitty because otherwise this place could've been a busy, buzzy travellers hub.

– Amazingly decorated with love for details – Great for groups (nice bar area, great terrace where you can chill together) – Friendly staff and good location

Shower set up mixed. A line of showers with curtainss. No lock or anything and either you come out wrapped in a towel and have to walk through the hallways to a toilet cubicle or try get dried inside the shower cubicle. Hang your clothes outside the curtain on a hook. Bit embarrassing as a female with bra etc hanging there and guys walking past and into next shower...privacy wasn't the best in my opinion

No breakfast. Just a last minute stay. As hostels go it seems good. I was in a mixed dorm. There was space to hang washing out on line, games in communal area and a bar.

It is a bit far from the train station, not too far, but with heavy luggage it is a bit uncomfortable.

The mattrasses were clean and comfortable. The showers has good pressure and hot water. the place is generally clean. The terrace is a nice place to relax. It is not far from Naples by train, I think that is the only transportation, and the trains are a bit old, but it works. the couple that runs it comes by every morning and evening, so that is also the time they will check passports, and the time you can ask questions to the woman. She speaks several languages, but the husband does not. There is a lot of restaurants and cafes near by. and also several supermarkets. The kitchen has a gas cooktop and microwave.

The beds didn't have curtains, and the staff was irregularly present if you needed anything.

It was the perfect location to experience the beauty of naples in a safe neighborhood. It was a 20 minute train ride from the center, but it was so perfect that when i went to the center i found it a bit underwhelming in comparison to the hospitality and kindess of the people from ercolano. The hodtel was easy to access regardless of the time of day, and the rooms were spacious. There was also a veranda with tables to hang out on. Other people staying at the hostel were kind, it had a good atmosphere!

No power outlet near my bed. Some beds had it

Good place to meat people. Big terrace, kitchen and dining room. They have teble football.

Its on the street so its noisy. If you can put the aircondition and close the windows is OK, but we had to keep the windows open and was quite noisy.

I liked the building, the comon areas (mostly the terrace), and most of the beds (some were older and , therefore, less comfy. Its very close to the bitch, where I went swimming, and to Herculano, the main arqueologican site of the place.

The location is great, owners are friendly and approachable, hostel is nice with great terrace :)

The location itself was dirty and felt dangerous at night (eecolano). Showers were cold and beds were uncomfortable

Very friendly staff, brilliant comunity vibe in the common room and the ideal location for accessing everything from Pompei and Mt Versuvious to Naples and Sorrento

Stayed in August 2022

Would be nice to make other guests aware of being quiet at a certain point of the night, since travelers in Ercolano are usually there to catch a good rest and do early excursions in the morning.

I liked the disposition of the beds in the room, gave a good sense of space and privacy. Staff (David and Tom) were very kind and helpful. I liked that staff makes an effort to separate the trash!

Only drawback was that it states air-conditioning but there was no remote to turn it on. So with 10 people in a room and warm weather it was quite hot. And being on a busy road means keeping the windows open is also very noisy.

Facilities are really nice - modern, tidy and clean. Check in and out was easy. All locks are keypad locks so no worrying about keys etc. really enjoyable stay.

No staff, no event

I met nice people

Three level bunk beds, first time I saw that, it really isn't comfortable on that 3rd level. It's just another horrible idea how to put as many people possible in a small room which makes dorms very crowded,, only one bathroom/one sink for the whole hostel. Bathroom not clean.

Nice staff, they allowed late check-in and sent all the necessary information on WhatsApp.

I have difficulties to rate this place. For me it was a good solution, because I was sick and could stay there for several nights for 15€/night and had a room to myself, because no other women were there. If you're looking for a simple and cheap bed, this is a good option. If you're looking for a hostel, especially outside of the tourist season, it's not. There was no reception whatsoever. I had to send my ID via WhatsApp to a guy and got the infos, which was fine. Every evening this guy's mum came to the hostel to do 5 minutes of cleaning (if any). A few days in I talked to a 35 old man who seems to live in this place. He asked me if I'm alone in my room and why and if I want to spend time with him, because he's lonely. I told him that's inappropriate, since I'm alone in a hostel and also I look like I'm 25. He said he didn't understand and got obviously emotional. Another guy, who also seems to live there for the fishing season, offered me and an 18 year old other guy drugs. They also kept using and pissing all over the women's toilet (one), because it was closest to their room. I told this to the WhatsApp reception guy and he did not care at all. I told him I don't feel safe and that the rooms PIN are easy to figure out (literally the room number), but he told me it's no problem and to go to bed. Nothing in this hostel is functional. Not a single door or window, so at night it was very noisy and cold. The fridge didn't work, the oven didn't work, the washing machine was out of order, the guys took the two lighters I bought myself for the stove because the reception ignored my request for a functioning lighter. I used the mens shower because the others were more broken than anything else. We also had to text and beg for toilet paper and were out of it several times.

You need your own padlock for the locker, but they let you know beforehand.

Great location, 5min walking to Herculaneum and easy transport to Pompei, Vesuvio, and Naples. Very clean and welcoming place, with access to all you might possibly need - a hot shower, a well-equipped kitchen, and stores and bars nearby. The owner is also very friendly and easy to communicate with :)
