Reviews for Central Hostel BG

Review 1:Well, soundproof was not so good. But remind that it is a hostel not a hotel. (Hotel-like hostel)

Review 2:It is easy to get to airport and oldtown. The bus stop is just 2-3 minutes from this hostel. And it starts around from 5:20 and takes 20 minutes. Considering that you use single room, price is worth enough.

Review 3:It is a centrally located hostel in Citta Bassa, with very helpful staff and nice, very clean and well heated rooms. Breakfast is included in the price of the room and is very good for the Italian standards. Moreover, the bus stop to the airport is just around the corner.

Review 4:No maps around to take unless you asked Boring breakfast No line in bathroom to hang our clothes Girls were impatient and only one was really helpful- dark curly hair Towels smelt of smoke Hostel smelt of smoke inside Had to wait around for 6 hours Under beds were dirty Not enough English signs explaining things. How to open the washing machine etc

Review 5:The closeness to everything Nice and warm Good facilities

Review 6:Stupid "outside" food policy. They say you should not bring any outside food or drink into the rooms. Unreasonable.

Review 7:Good central location, nice room with balcony, everything well explained and easy to follow.

Review 8:Did not have towels.

Review 9:Very clean, hair dryer, tv, felt safe, great staff, good location, big room, breakfast included, big bathroom, close to the train station. Did not feel like a hostel at all, felt more like a good 3 star hotel.

Review 10:Breakfast starts only after 7:30 , but we had to leave at 7 for an early flight. No solution found for a take way breakfast .

Review 11:Perfect placed for a city tour or a night in the city . Good report price / quality / comfort . Kind personnel , easy to find from railway station or airport .

Review 12:Noisy a bit. The doors are not soundproof, the noise in corridor is heard in the room all the times. The toilet water woke me up twice.

Review 13:Clean facilities. Friendly staff.

Review 14:Breakfast was very basic in comparison to other places I've stayed at, but adequate.

Review 15:Very helpful staff. Great room with good ensuite facilities. Parking available.

Review 16:Just maybe more coffee pods stocked in room for breakfast.

Review 17:After arriving at 10pm, they ran out of rooms at the hostel, so we have received beautiful apartment for the price of hostel room! That was awsome! Staff very helpful.

Review 18:You have to carefully look for the signs in the main street because it's very close to the station but you have to turn left into the right street.

Review 19:Obsługa mówi po angielsku, blisko stacji i blisko centrum. Śniadanie na słodko, ale w porządku.

Review 20:There was no kitchen available at all time you spending, not possible to cook or make some meal. Kitchen is opening just for a breakfast time

Review 21:Very good place, close to the city center, street is not noisy, possible to sleep good, the shopping is near and food shop also, very comfortable, train station also not far away ;)

Review 22:nothing

Review 23:it is really well organised hostel. it even seemed to me as a hotel :) there are lots of facilities. cheap storage room, there is also a place , a common room where you can spend some time waiting for your flight, resting or charging your mobile.

Review 24:These experiences aren't the fault of the hostel itself and something they couldn't help but just a couple of problems we ran into that could maybe be used as a warning to other possible visitors; first of all there were several times we were bitten in the night by mosquitoes despite the fact our windows were never open. This was not the fault of the hostel however and purely a result of the time of year and the climate but I write it as a warning to others to take the necessary precautions when visiting. Also it would have been nice to be given some sort of "do not disturb" sign to put on the door as after traveling all day being woken up by the maid walking in in the morning and realising we were still asleep was not all that pleasant. I realise there will be a set time when all the rooms are cleaned but it would just be nice to have the option to delay or not have the cleaning done for the first morning there.

Review 25:The hostel is in a great location just a 2 minute walk from the main shopping area of the new town, and a 5 minute walk to both the bus and train station. The walk to the funicular is a bit far but the hostel is only a short walk away from numerous bus stops for buses which take you straight to the funicular stop. As for the hostel itself, I have stayed here twice and both experiences have been nothing less than brilliant; the staff on reception all spoke excellent English and were more than helpful with any queries or requests we had. The triple room we stayed in was both spacious and comfortable and the bathroom was large and very clean. A maid came in the room everyday to clean the bathroom and remake the beds which was obviously a nice thing to comeback to after a long and tiring day out.

Review 26:- very basic breakfast with terribly-tasting cofee -noise from other rooms at night -one of the receptionists (the one with curly hair and glasses)was unhelpful and made me feel like she is doing me a big favour just by performing her job. But the other two receptionists were great.

Review 27:-great location -comfortable rooms -bathroom in the room -cleaning service every day

Review 28:Walls are really thin, the mattress in the bed was a bit loud and uncomfortable.

Review 29:Close to railway station and city centre, the old town can be reached in 10 minutes by bus. Breakfast was minimal but quite good. Staff speaks english.

Review 30:Breakfast is quite bad but since there are many caffes and bakeries around it's not a big problem.

Review 31:As for hostel this place is above the standard: good location just off the main street, helpful and friendly staff, clean, comfortable beds and good WiFi.

Review 32:I stayed in a single room and the quality I got does not explain the high price (43per night!). The room is big but all the Windows are covered because outside there is something like a common terrace with other rooms so in fact you have no daylight. The bulb light is so weak it hurts. The bed is pretty hard. They give you an imitation of a towel and a portion of shampoo (!!!). The bathroom is old but managable. The walls are very thin, you can hear the other rooms. The biggest joke is the breakfest. Dont bother going for it. It is soooo basic: bread and very basic jams (disgusting to be honest), sth sweet and tea/coffee and the juice machine was broken. Laughable breakfest to be honest. Also on the day of my departure the repair crew started warking in the next room at 8am making a hell lot of noise which I found annoying as hell considering the time And the fact that people come there to rest. In general i dont recommend it unless you can ignore all of the above and concentrate on the location being close to the train station.

Review 33:Friendly stuff ad 10minutes walking from the train station

Review 34:Thin doors. I booked a single room just to get a good night sleep before my connecting flight in the next morning. Instead of 5 hours sleep I got only 3 because I could hear everything going on in the hall: people caming and going, banging doors and then at 2am two americans decided to have a long chat in the hall. I could have had the same amount of sleep staying in the airport for the night and that would have been free..

Review 35:Easy to find. Airportbus stop just around the corner. Clean

Review 36:The beds were really small and uncomfortable. The door and the wall are not good at all, at night you can hear even if someone is passing near your room. I didnt liked the terrace too much, didnt had a light for outside, and there were some other doors sharing the same balcony. The breakfast was awful, some old bread, butter and some juice.

Review 37:The cleanliness of the room and the wi-fi.

Review 38:Coffee machine broken so no coffee. Vending machine instructions poor. Asked staff for help as I had paid for water and credit showed as good. Staff tried to use credit to obtain water but failed to get water. I lost money and staff would not reimburse me.

Review 39:Location

Review 40:In this hostel I have stayed 4 times, it is expressed in all! Excellent location, reasonable price, helpful staff, cleanliness, nice TV, heating / air conditioner, good facilities, a sunny terrace - everything that could wish for! If I ever again will go to Bergamo, choose this place again.

Review 41:nice, clean and big room, free WiFi, good location, free breakfast; although it's a hostel, the comfort is comparable to a good hotel - highly recommended! I've been there for a second time and I'm sure I'll come back :)

Review 42:The breakfast is poor: jam, white bread, flakes, coffee-machine. That's all. Not even the cheapest piece of cheese, or the smallest egg, or the thinnest slice of ham. We had to buy food for breakfast.

Review 43:The location (near Porta Nuova, easy to find), comfort, clean room.

Review 44:Very basic Italian breakfast, only sweet things. But at least there was yoghurt.

Review 45:Very good value for money. Near the railway station, so I could easily go to Brescia, Cremona and Milano (although I wasn't very impressed by the Italian railways).

Review 46:Very noisy AC, impossible to use it during the night, bad soundproof, tiny towels (just 1 per person), baggage lockers paid (1 eur). And the most important: the bathroom is very cold, and the room very hard to get warm (January). The poor breakfast: just bread, jam, butter, honey, yogurt and 2 types prepacked little biscuits. Coffee from a machine and the low cost tea Golden Lion with artificial lemon juice.

Review 47:Perfect location, good size room (as it is in the pictures), good size bathroom (hairdryer), baggage lockers, wardrobe in the room, good speed free Wi-Fi, big flat screen TV.

Review 48:breakfast is a non existent, breakfast room miserable, very thin towels, no insulation between door and outside corridor.Wifi needs log in everytime.

Review 49:value for money, very large room and bathroom, lcd tv, good location near centre and airport bus

Review 50:Breakfast could include some more items, not just bread and cereal.

Review 51:The location is excellent. Staff is very helpful in all ways. Room was decent and warm with a comfortable bed. Bathroom was big and clean. Free-wifi everywhere is a boost.

Review 52:Very simple breakfast (coffee, bread, butter, jam), neither cheese nor ham. Poor sound isolation between the rooms, one can hear your neighbours making "funny" sounds.

Review 53:Location.

Review 54:The breakfast. It's very basic and not tasty: just cereals, coffee, tea, white bread, cookies. I had to buy breakfast in the shop.

Review 55:I had to sleep one night in Bergamo between the flights. So it was the decent place: in the center of the town, WiFi, clean.

Review 56:The staff were friendly and helpful and the hostel (a hybrid of a hostel and budget hotel) was easy to find in the centre of Bergamo, only a few minutes walk from the rail station. The room I stayed in was a single including en-suite and was very clean and overall was good value. The free to use internet room was handy and the wifi was good in most areas.

Review 57:I was satisfied with everything.

Review 58:Although it is called hostel, the service is not worse than in a hotel. Room was nice, clean, nice bathroom, the street is quiet, everything is near.

Review 59:Breakfast around 9.00- no fresh bread available

Review 60:Very good hotel in the middle of the city, close to the railway station and shops. Very good restaurants nearby.

Review 61:It is a centrally located hostel in Citta Bassa, with very helpful staff and nice and clean rooms. Moreover, the bus stop to the airport is just around the corner.

Review 62:Perfect stay for reasonable price. Good location - close to train station, airport bus, city center. Very very clean good-smell room. Simple but sufficient breakfast included. Wifi in every room. Receptionist was nice and helpfull. We can highly recommend it.

Review 63:I stayed for one night only however I have nothing to complain about! Everything was very good, simple and fluent check-in & check-out, enough information upon arrival, clean and silent room... and ideal location - close to the bus station, bus stop, center of the city when you want to grab a drink or have a nice dinner out. Would definitely recommend to other travellers;)

Review 64:I wish the breakfast room would be a bit more pleasant and would have more natural light. It felt a bit depressing to not be able to see the day light as all the windows were covered with curtains which you could not open. Also the staff in the breakfast room could try to smile a bit...

Review 65:I had a single room upstairs, it was nice and clean, quite spacious and quiet. Very polite reception staff with very good English. In general I found the hostel very pleasant and modern, centrally located, close to the train station and the main street, but quiet in the same time.

Review 66:The staff is very welcoming. Professionally responded to any of your question. Rooms tidy, clean. Internet works perfectly. A good location of hostel. Close to the bus station to the airport. No noise - you can rest peacefully at night.

Review 67:In central foyer the voices of other clients carried up to the rooms so maybe a sign in court yard asking guests to keep voices low would be useful

Review 68:Small sitting lounges on floor Lots of extras available on request A very good hostel

Review 69:Best advantage is location (close to stations, bus stop and to the shopping streets)and and for guests with car free car park. Staff was ok, there were free computers to use, wifi in our room was strong. Breakfast was only sweet.

Review 70:The vending machine could have more food, maybe sandwiches.

Review 71:Got a three bed room just for myself for two days. It was quiet and I could just hang around the "bar" even after checkout doing some work online. A place that had a feeling of no hurry.

Review 72:Im happy with everything. The hostel is newly renovated, clean comfortable rooms. I had private bathroom with free toiletries. A/C, Very quiet room, easy to find, 10 min with bus to airport (3 min walk to bus stop) and 10 min bus to the city center/old town

Review 73:The wifi did not work well in my room at all.

Review 74:The staff were very helpful and answered all of my questions. The hostel was well maintained and I did not have problems with sound at all. My room was clean and large.

Review 75:40 minutes walking from old town

Review 76:Very clean, polite and helpful staff, basic but plenty breakfast, spacious rooms and bathroom, excellent wi-fi connection for free

Review 77:Luggage storage when not in room and TV didnt seem to work. Staff advised surveilance of luggage room and would fix TV.

Review 78:Accessability to transport and key attractions. Facilities atractive generouse in size and very comfortable. Staff helpful.

Review 79:We have arrived in the evening and were asked to wait about half an hour for our room to be cleaned. It has not disturbed us very much, but it was strange. Coffe was not good, but a fact of a breakfast in italian hotel is good.

Review 80:It is comfortably located in the city center, not far from Citta Alta and close enough to the railway station. The room was very good, especially the bathroom, which was perfect. They inssitently ask not to have meal in the rooms. But there is a kind of bar where you can have dinner (bringing your meal and wine).

Review 81:I thought breakfast could improve but was sufficient.

Review 82:I was received with a smile and felt important to the staff that I was there. They were always available and helpful. I was pleased hey had complementary bike to use

Review 83:Location is central but old part of the city is a little bit far. At the evenings Wi-Fi works only in some places (but the speed is good)

Review 84:I lived in 1-person room. It definitely worths that money (40EUR). Nice interior, furniture.

Review 85:The breakfast is basic, with coffee, one kind of bread, jam and butter, juice, one kind of cereal, some biscuits. No cheese, ham or eggs. I had a room at the roof, so it was a bit sufocating, but if you open the window to the balcony is ok. There was no hand towel or rug, only bath towel. You cannot bring food to the room, which is a bit strange. For a short trip the hotel is ok and the price worth it.

Review 86:The hotel is well located, close to the train station and bus station. The main touristic points in the low part of the city can be reached on foot and then with the funicular to the high part of the city. Staff helpful and friendly. Luggage storage and snack bar available.
