Comments (English):
While the Hostel Stay in Shared Dorm Room No. 8 (Building No.11) with four beds (Bunker) was comfortable, the WIFI signal inside the Room was very weak so much so that One had to come out near the Exit Common Passage, to secure the WiFi Signal. Secondly, there was no Pantry or Kitchen Facility for use. The only attraction was proximity to Rail/Tram transport Station.

The service was not good, I had to wait 30 minutes at the reception until somebody arrived so I could do my check out. The neighboruood is not very nice and neither the rooms. Old blankets and in general I did not enjoyed my experience.

The hostel is OK for one night ou two.. The lockers didn't lock and the reception is open only until 10pm on winter. But the room is really big, it's quiet and it's very close to the station, so it's a good option to stay close to the city.

Comments (English):
So, there are both positive and negative points that eventually cancel each other out. In my experience, even though the room was upgraded from 4 bed dorm to two bed dorm (which we appreciate), the experience wasn't great because of a strong odour in the room. Me and friend couldn't identify the cause (our guess is the incense sticks kept in the room) and hence we couldn't fix it until we left, staying for 4 nights keeping the windows open.There was an unkept oven in the room. Since, room size was small, maybe that's why it was a bit difficult to cope with even small issues as these. Positive point was that the location was perfect, in close vicinity to station, canal and other necessary stores and we barely stayed inside.. The staff was very friendly. So, our overall experience was ok.

The person in the reception was kind and respectful but there was no WiFi in my room. Too much weak WiFi also the cleaning of room was excellent but there were no hand wash or soap in toilet,
I will say in last it normal place not too much good as they showing in pictures. Also it the rooms was cold they didn’t in the heater form me because I was alone in the room. So I stay there in cold

Terrible person at the desk. Not welcoming, smelly room and bathroom. Really creepy, I decided not to stay after 30 minutes because I didn't want my vacation to be a nightmare. When I went back to say I didn't want to stay this man said: "ok bye! and waved his hand in signal of "off you go"

Comments (English):
This hostel was pretty standard. They had a common room with a few couches and some board games. They have two terraces, one in the front before you enter and one of the second floor. I didn't spend much time socializing at the hostel, so I can't really say too much about the atmosphere. For the most part it didn't seem like it lent itself to that much of a social atmosphere, i.e., not a party hostel, but then again, maybe I was just there at a slow time.
The biggest downside was that the lockers were a total joke, as they could easily be opened with a firm tug even when a lock was attached. That's because the locking apparatus on the locker was made from a pliable plastic material and not from metal. That didn't inspire much confidence but I still wasn't worried about getting robbed as Florence is a safe and friendly city and I find that my fellow hostel guests are generally good and trustworthy people. Still, they should get new lockers so people can at least have somewhere safe to store their passports.
The biggest plus for me was that my room attached to a courtyard in the back with a beautiful garden. I would sit there in the mornings after I had showered and meditate, drying off in the sun while occasionally a lovely breeze would stir through the trees. It was amazingly peaceful and I was not expecting that. Also, this was the cheapest place in town. I'd say for the price, it's totally worth it.
