We had a room for us four. Everything was great. The beds were extremely comfortable with crispy bed linens, the room was squeaky clean. Everything is new and well thought out. There is a vending machine downstairs with coffees and drinking water.

A perfect place for a stay in Florence. Even if the place is a hostel, has much better accommodation conditions than many hotels. All facilities are modern and clean. You can relax in the common area, which is full of comfortable chairs and lounges. Breakfasts offer a very wide selection. And the place is not so far from the close city center, so you can go there by a walk. I can totally recommend this place!

My stay at Ostelo was amazing! The people at check-in were really helpful with everything I needed, the rooms were very good and the lockers were perfect in terms of the size, very spacious. There was a free pasta night, which was amazing and a helping hand to the travel budget :D The location was central, 1/2 minutes to the train station by foot and the center (the duomo) was 5 minutes by foot! They also let keep our luggage after check-out in a room free of charge. Thank you for everything :)

Looking for a hostel?

Budget travellers know that there is 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 bit more.

We were initially hesitant about staying at a hostel but it was actually great. The bunk beds were clean and comfy. The staff was nice and helpful. It would have been great if there was a hook in the bathroom to hang towels or clothes. But otherwise, good stay. There are lockers to store your luggage safely as well.

The property is situated in a very quiet part of Florence. If you like to walk, it is the perfect hostel for you as it is a good 20 minute walk from the centre. It has complete facilities for both work, leisure and long stay. It has a coworking space, a bar and pool, and locker storage/laundry facility. Best for backpackers, students, and people on a budget looking for a cheap accomodation.

This is the most beautifully designed, well kept, fun and in general - best hostel in Florence. The price is good for the standards of the city, which means that anything cheaper won’t be worth the money. Apart from that, there is a free welcome drink and lots of other free goodies during your stay. However, the kindness, the friendliness and the professionalism of the staff is priceless. This all results with a great social connection between all the guests. I highly recommend it!

Stable and comfortable bed, with shelf, night light and power socket. In a dormitory there are a toilet room and a shower room, both with basins, and there are extra bathrooms outside the rooms. No queues at all. The best shower I've ever seen in a hostel. Big and safe lockers. Towel included in the price. In general a good and clean hostel, it looks like a hotel converted to hostel.
