The accommodation itself was decent enough, though definitely not of a great standard. However, it is their poor staff and inefficient manner that is the worst. I discovered later that they charged me extra on my credit card even though we had done nothing that would've incurred this (we didn't cancel last minute, stayed for the entire booking etc). I...

First of all at the time of booking I was not told that if you have a certain age you have to pay extra taxes. In my case I had to pay an extra 1 Euro/night because I'm over 30 years old. When checking in I asked about heating in the room as I read some bad reviews about this... More

Very unclean, I had a private room with bathroom for 4, and it had rests of previous passengers, nasty, not only that but super dirty shower (bring flip flops if you gonna stay there) Wifi ok, good location, basic b-fast. Other bad side was the noise from other rooms and hallways at everyhour at night. Looked like the 3rd floor... More

You get what you pay for in accommodation. This is a cheap place to stay and, for the price, you can't really complain. Relatively clean (it's not a five star hotel so don't expect the bathroom to be spotless), comfortable beds, wifi worked for me. Staff were friendly and helpful. Breakfast were croissants and lemon tarts, and free coffee/tea. Location... More

Very unclean, blocked pipes so did smell a bit and this was in December so how bad is it in summer? Bed had pee stains, the fridge...just don't open it. Wi-Fi sucks, the breakfast is beyond foul, I wouldn't feed it to an animal. Its only redeeming point is its proximity to Milan's center and the staff (really nice people,... More

Monastery hostel - good chance this is the worst hostel I have stayed in. No breakfast at all when I went at 9am and the rooms are dingy, dirty and very very overpriced. The hallway was very loud in the middle of the night with people coming home and early in the morning with people leaving. By 9am nothing was... More

this is a fine hostel. rooms are basic, with private bathrooms. the location is excellent. Some of the staff is very friendly. Only downside: it is not very cheap (as what usually you'd expect from a hostel), but not horrendously expensive either.

My friend and I visited this from 25 October to 1 November in 2012. We shared a twin room, which came with its very own fridge, en-suite shower room, enormous storage space and fabulous views over the monastery's extensive court yard. Wake up early for the freshly baked pastries in the form of delicious croissants and steaming cups of coffee... More

I visited this hostel with a friend at the end of last month. It was very easy to book online, using an online form, then securing with a credit card prior to our arrival. We found the hostel very easily using a map, but be warned it is quite discreet, but as long as you have proper directions you cannot... More
