Nice hostel !! Clean rooms, comfy beds, big lockers, great showers and bathrooms, and a huge common area where they have a big screen TV, and lots of tables and chairs. I heard the breakfast was awesome to, but never made it to one myself. The staff was extremely friendly and could help you with anything (even shipping home something you left behind). The hostel was close to the SMN train station and a 5-10 minutes away from the tourist sites.

Very nice hostel. I'd probably give it 4.5. very clean, nice rooms, with private facilities. really good breadfast included... 9 choices! including such things as omellettes and bacon and eggs. near train station and city center. very social and easy to meet people. A little noisy on the first floor where we were because you could hear the kitchen (quiet in theory from 11pm to 7 am). free internet.

I stayed here in September of 2004.

This is one of the best hostels I've stayed in all of Europe.

The location is very good. Easily within walking distance of the major tourist sites.

It is very clean. I was there when they were painting the room I was staying in. I was glad to see that they are concerned with keeping the place looking nice.

The facilities were very good as well. A bathroom and shower within the rooms. The showers were good. The room I was staying in had ten people, but don't let this frighten you. The room was huge! Very high ceilings and there was plenty of room, trust me. There were good sized lockers for your pack.

There was free internet access next to the front desk, and another small area to hang out behind that. There is the main eating area with a lot of tables, and as has been said, a great outside patio area. A nice garden and some statues surrounded the tables.

The breakfast was very good, with plenty of choices and hot food! This is a rarity in hostels, so warm food is always nice.

The people were nice and answered your questions.

I was very impressed and enjoyed every night that I was here. One of the top three hostels that i've ever stayed at.

Archi Rossi was so great, everything was fantastic and the free internet and breakfast were top. Even after a real wild night in the Kikuya pub ,which by the way was recommended from the guys from the front desk (Well done!) you definitely didn't miss breakfast!

The staff was awesome. Free Internet. Fully cooked breakfasts. A bunch of us would frequent the outdoor terraces with beer and wine in hand from nearby cheap markets. They sell water for really cheap in the lobby. Major plus on the hot days we had this summer.

I really enjoyed my stay at Archi Rossi. It's very close to the train station and a short walk to all the main sites of the city. The place has a great layout with outdoor terraces that are conducive to socializing with other travellers. I found the rooms clean and very safe - each person is assigned a big closet with lock. The bathrooms are in the rooms and clean. I'm not sure if there's a curfew now, I think they just ask you to show the evening staff your key. Free high speed internet. Oh and breakfast is great - cooked to order.

This hostel is very clean (great showers), has a lovely terrace and an amazing breakfast! Really you can pick from a menu and actually get something decent! They have big lockers in the rooms, it is situated near the train station (in a nice neighborhood), has nice little terraces and internet is free. The only bad thing is the curfew.

Large place right around the corner from the train station really easy to get too. The rooms are clean and soon as you check in you get free clean sheets. The bathrooms are a little concerning and the 2am curfew in this city is not long enough. Besides that the place is always clean and has some interesting people running through it. I would recommend staying for a good time if you are a young person traveling!

Location is great for the train station and the markets... cheap decent feeds available from the kitchen... was very clean and roomy. If the walls weren't so graffiti-ed it would look like a 4 star hotel! There were a few fights for the shower and toilets, but all in all a great place to be based!

Nice and clean rooms and facilities, friendly stuff, close to train station, and very active social environment. The paintings on the walls will remind you where you are. Best place to have dinner: their open garden cafeteria surrounded by sculptures and sunshine.
