Lovely location! Very beautiful views and convenient walkability to the town of Menaggio and the ferry. The facilities were slightly dated, however. Overall, would recommend this place!

Liked: Property conditions & facilities, room comfort
Amazing value given the location
For the price we paid, it’s incredible value. The hostel is tired and exactly what you’d expect for the price, but the location and views are amazing, the staff are super helpful and friendly and the restaurant really well worth a visit. If you want a budget short stay, this is the perfect stop off

Amazing stay
Brilliant stay. I stayed for 3 night and all of the staff were lovely and very friendly. The only thing was the shower door was broken you could shut it but with difficulty. But it wouldnt stop me going again. Location was amazing and the view made the trip.

Flott plass med utsikt over Comosjøen
Enkel standard på rommet. Rommet var lite og renholdet kunne vært bedre. Badet var lite. Beliggenheten var topp. Flott utsikt over Comosjøen, god mat og hyggelig betjening. Kort avstand til både buss, båt og sentrum i Menaggio.
