Hostels in Tuscany, Italy

"This hostel is definitely my favorite hostel EVERRR the stairs are so convenient that you do not need to climb so chaotic (the only hostel i would sleep at the upper deck without any concerns on my knee) the room is LARGEEE and WIDEEE the bed is bigger than normal hostel and the height between two beds are very appropriate not too close. Staff are very kind on providing me information of the hostel and transport mode.The room is also clean where duvets will be changed or folded everyday! What a outstanding services! Also i had been staying in Aparto in different country which never disappoint me every single time 💕"

"I traveled as a solo female traveler, and unfortunately, only one out of three nights was peaceful. I want to warn others about several management and safety issues I encountered here. On Trip.com, only mixed dorms were available.The platform lists two types of 6-bed dorms: one explicitly labeled 'Mixed Gender' (which I booked) and another generic '6-Bed Dormitory Room' without any gender indication. Since there was no 'Female-only' option, I assumed these were essentially the same thing. I ended up alone in a room with three men, which felt quite unsafe and intimidating. My sleep was constantly interrupted by loud neighbors and the person in the bunk below me shaking the bed all night When I requested a move to a female dorm or a more balanced mixed room the next morning, the staff was unhelpful. They claimed they couldn't move me because I hadn't booked through their website, even though female beds were available!! They initially demanded I pay the full price again for the next two nights. After contacting Trip.com support, the hostel still refused to cooperate. Eventually, a more reasonable receptionist helped resolve the issue peacefully. On my last night, a large group of school students arrived. They were incredibly loud, and it took over an hour after ”quiet hours” began for teachers and staff to finally calm them down. Be aware of this. Cleanliness: Rooms are relatively clean. Self-Service: You must make your own bed, which is very difficult if you are assigned a top bunk. Extra Costs: Towels are not included and cost 1.9€. Payment: They are strictly card-only. Pros: There is free hot water at reception, a luggage room, and the location is conveniently close to the Campo di Marte station. If you are a solo female traveler, be aware that management might prioritize profit over your safety and comfort :)"

"First of all, unbeatable price and location. It’s about a 10-minute walk from the Firenze Santa Maria Novella station. I was greeted by a lovely receptionist who showed me the amenities and to my room. On the next day, there was another receptionist who was equally as helpful. She took the initiative to recommend as many sights, food, and even the oldest pharmacy in the world (circa 1221). I have attached what she highlighted to me. If you’re a no-frills traveler who needs a convenient and comfortable place to stay, this is what you’ll be looking for. One tip when locating the hostel, don’t expect a large sign; instead it has a nondescript door with other tenants on other floors."

"I had a fantastic stay at Safestay Pisa Centrale and was very impressed with the overall experience. The location is excellent, making it easy to explore Pisa and get around the city, while the atmosphere was friendly, welcoming, and relaxed. The staff were helpful and the facilities were clean and comfortable, making it a great choice for both solo travelers and groups. I would definitely recommend Safestay Pisa Centrale to anyone looking for affordable, convenient, and enjoyable accommodation in Pisa."

"The expectations were worse, but it turned out to be a cozy place, but spoils night sleep a terrible air conditioner, the hotel administration needs at least to put it on a rubber carpet that would deafen the vibration, it was very loud, lived in a female room, it was not overcrowded, It was comfortable, on the recession at the check-in is given white lingerie clean, towel 1 euro, 5 euro collateral, big dining room and kitchen, the guests wanted positive, mainly youth, location excellent, very many places and in one supermarket building, do not need to go far for the products, photos of the rooms correspond to the reality"

"Facilities: I was quite surprised by how large this hotel is; it has two buildings, a pool, and a gym. However, it's essentially set up like a youth hostel. The room had a balcony, but it was connected to the adjacent room, which meant a lack of privacy. Environment: It's located by a road, with a bar across the street that stays open quite late. It can get a bit noisy with young people gathering there. Service: Check-in is after 3 PM, and check-out is at 10 AM. You can't check in early if it's outside these hours, and there's a charge of 3 euros per piece if you want to store your luggage after check-out. Cleanliness: Generally acceptable! It was cleaned daily. Florence isn't a large city, so most places are within walking distance. It's very close to the Central Market, which is convenient for grabbing a bite to eat."

"L'ostello si trova in mezzo al nulla, si sentono solo gli uccellini! Pulizia delle camere e dei bagni esemplare. La signora che gestisce l'ostello è gentilissima e disponibile. Che dire? Rapido qualità prezzo al top!! Esperienza molto positiva, da consigliare, torneremo sicuramente."

"About an 8-minute walk to the nearest metro. The surrounding area isn’t very pleasant—quite dirty, with views of homeless individuals from the window. The lobby and room were overly scented, and the noise insulation was poor; I could clearly hear neighbours closing their doors—the sound was so loud and close that it felt like someone was opening my own door—along with traffic noise from outside."

"The staff were incredibly helpful and patient, truly outstanding. The water pressure and temperature in the shower were excellent, and the hairdryer was pretty powerful. This Ostello Bello's bar being connected to the accommodation can get a bit noisy, but they provide earplugs which helps. I stayed right above the bar, and while there was some noise, it wasn't too disruptive. And even though there weren't curtains on the beds, it was still fine."

"This hostel completely exceeded my expectations for its price point. It's located in a monastery, which you can actually visit, and they offer a free breakfast of coffee and a croissant. The location is super convenient, close to both the train station and major attractions, making it perfect for backpackers like me. The only downside is that the soundproofing in the rooms isn't great."
