Though there are many beds per room, each is quite isolated with a courtain, so that the movement of other people doesn’t interfere with your sleep. It was clean and bed was comfortable

The Bungalow is super cozy. Very minimalistic but you don't need anything more if you are simply looking for a place to rest while hiking the via degli Dei. Warm shower and kind hosts who help arrange a pleasant dinner for you upon arrival. Overall a relaxing and lovely stay.

Looking for a hostel?

Budget travelers know there's no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: Save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a little more.

    Great location, really near the main square but hide from the noise of the main streets, Independence for entering and going out of the hostel at any hour, safe locker for the luggage, 3 bathrooms available, wi-fi worked well. Is a good place for a quick visit of the city (2 nights).
