Location was stunning, staff was really nice and the restaurant and environment was pretty friendly and welcoming. For the price it is undoubtedly worth it. We had a room with a balcony with lake views and be able to have breakfast there in a warm day felt like a dream.

The bathroom was quite dirty and warm water was extremely limited, so it was pretty easy to run out of it and have to shower with cold water. We didn’t have chains to lock our luggage. However our roommates were super friendly and we didn’t feel unsafe at all. Besides, we were offered bt the staff to leave or most valuable belongings at reception.

the view was perfect, the staff was very nice, the check-in and check-out process was supper quick. another thing that me and my friends loved was the fact that it was a very lively hostel, during both day and night. opposite of the town at night, which is very quiet, the hostel was like where the party was.

when we arrived there was a man using our bathroom. we got worried because our room was supposed to be private. once we talked with the hostel staff they quickly resolved this little problem, but we were sad no one cleaned the bathroom (because the man left it dirty.

Close to the ferry and bus stop. Lake view from bedroom with spacious balcony. Cotton sheets, though the bed was not made up. Sizeable bathroom to share between six. Bar and 'restaurant' on site with ample terrace. Friendly staff. Plenty of line for hanging wet clothes. Inexpensive for a lakeside location in August.

Dormitory access a bit seedy-feeling. Tired decor in parts of the building, but adequate. Limited restaurant menu for my fussy taste. First attended by receptionist who refused to look at me when speaking to me, so it was unclear if he was talking to an earpiece.

The view of Lake Como from the hostel was incredible. And had close access to a small pebble beach. The downstairs had a busy bar and kitchen to provide breakfast lunch and dinner to locals and visitors alike. There were lots of young people staying at the hotel/hostel. Hotel rooms had lake views and the hostel rooms had nice big lockable drawers for all my stuff.

The hostel room I stayed in had a publicly accessible bathroom on the floor. The room was small and lacked shelving by the bedside for phones and such. There was a sink in the room with potable water. The bathrooms - toilets and showers - were very small and hard to manoeuvre with. The hostel advertised linen and towels were provided but they were not placed on the bed. The window in the room needs a curtain as there is a sensor light that shines whenever someone uses the back door

the view from my room was EXQUISITE, you have the view directly on the lake the restaurant of the hostel is very nice, traditional italien dishes, and amazing tiramisu, for a decent price. they offer two tickets for welcome drinks

the toilets were waaaaay too small , it's barely impossible to move inside of the restroom, barely impossible to change inside of the the room. the bathroom is super small too, you basically have to put your things on the floor while you're showering !! i hated this

This is probably the best hostel my girlfriend and I have stayed in in Europe. The view from the room and restaurant was beyond amazing, we could not be happier. The staff, they are so welcoming, friendly and helpful, we could imagine how fun they would be in the summer. Close to the boat stop to explore the lake which was fantastic, also close to some very beautiful hikes. If you’re looking for a cost effective way to visit lake comp this would be the number 1 choice. Thank you to all the staff at the hostel for making our stay fantastic.

Amazing view from the dorm windows over the lake!! Nice free breakfast downstairs; cereal, juice, packet pastries, coffee etc. Super close to the ferry stop, and Menaggio a cute little town with some restaurants and a good big grocery shop. Definitely worth staying here for the price considering the great views, nice enough rooms and cheap/easy ferry situation (4.60 euros for adult one way ticket) to other Lake Como towns!

Toilets and showers were small, but pretty okay. No aircon in the room, just a fan. Tricky to access if you miss the last ferry home (you have to go through Cadenabbia and then a bus up to Menaggio, the bus doesn't come often in the evening though so a 40 minute walk sometimes instead) - but this has nothing to do with the property itself, just something to be aware of for time/transport organisation if you are staying here!

The location was great…very close to the ferry and a bus stop. The views over the lake were fantastic! The staff was very welcoming. We enjoyed chatting with other travelers and the breakfast was reasonably priced. Good cappuccino and croissant! A little noisy at night until quiet time which was a little after 11pm. We had a private room with bunk beds They were as expected, small but comfortable. Worth it for the view of the lake!!

Loud music late at night.

The food at the restaurant was amazing in the evenings. The room was comfortable and there was enough room for everyone, plus a drawer under the bed where you could put your belongings. The view from the window and the restaurant was outstanding, could not have asked for better. I highly recommend!

The noise from the bar/restaurant was a lot, but stopped after midnight, so wasn't too bad.

The hostel is in an amazing location. It’s literally a 2 minute walk from the ferry port and it’s right near the lake. You have amazing views from all rooms, we stayed in a room of 6 everyone was very friendly. The staff were very helpful and friendly, we ate there for 2 of the nights as the food was good and inexpensive compared to the other places in Menaggio. It had lots of young people and a very nice atmosphere plus cheap drinks. For the price it’s worth it, as the cost includes your bedroom, facilities, a free drink with every meal and breakfast in the morning.

Our room of six was quite small so it did get quite stuffy in there due to the heat. The beds were quite old and made of mental and made lots of noise when people would move and go up and down on the bunk beds. So if you came back late it was extremely hard to not wake others up in the room due to the noise. Also the restaurant is open to the public and there’s no communal space for just the people in the hostel, but we never found an issue getting a table. However due to there being no kitchen or communal space for just people in the hostel you do have to eat out every night or make cold picnic food like we did some nights. This is not the hostels fault as it’s a small hostel, however just a warning that most days you may have to spend money eating out.
