Hostel San Marino

Bedbugs - extreme amount! Got hundreds of bites from bedbugs - after one night! Killed three of them in the morning, confirming that it was indeed bedbugs that bit me. Location is about 3 km away and 300 meters below the old town of San Marino - which is quite the hike even for people in shape. The shower room is.. interesting, somewhat see-through walls and not gender segregated. The bunk beds aren’t stable and there was a sweet smell in the room (which later I found out was due to the amount of bedbugs). The kitchen was a bit messy, but there’s a grocery store around the corner. Good AC. The staff was notified about the bedbugs, but I’m not convinced that they will fix it anytime soon.

Don’t expect much The only hostel in San Marino - but you could have hoped for a better one. I stayed one night in a 8 person dorm in June 24. There was no lockers, no shelves or power plugs at each bed. Not easy to get up in the top bed. No railing, so you can fall down. Missed more toilets and bathrooms.

The hostel has good Location and Big Kitchen however it cancels the Positive Aspects when you go to sleep and you get bitten by Bed Bugs and Mosquitos ! They do not have nets on the windows. At night the bugs eat you alive!

I’m going to make this as fair as possible despite the poor rating. This hostel is good value for money if you want to spend the night in San Marino on a budget. The staff were also friendly and helpful. We had a large room for just the two of us. However, the sheets were quite grainy with dirt. The shower room is very close to flooding every time you use the shower. Although the location seems near to the centre of San Marino, we came quite late so had to walk to the top. This really was a struggle as it’s such a steep slope all the way up, so although the location is good for being near a bus stop, if the buses aren’t running it’s quite a strain (45 minute walk on extreme incline). If you’re staying on a Saturday then be wary of the fact the hostel is above a nightclub. However, the reason I have rated this so low is the strange “breakfast”. It specifies breakfast is included but when we went to the kitchen we weren’t sure what was meant to happen. We hadn’t been told the night before. Nothing was laid out or put aside. I’m not sure if you just raid the cupboards and eat whatever but I don’t really feel comfortable doing that in a communal kitchen. There was no one around to ask so we walked to a cafe round the corner. I think offering a service and not providing it is quite poor. The hostel was almost empty so maybe that’s why there had been a lack of instruction and an awkward atmosphere.

Great view!

tutto ok.....avevo chiesto massima pulizia nella stanza ed era molto pulita,gli spazi in comune come la cucina che comunque non ho usato perchè andavamo a mangiare sempre nel centro storico erano puliti anche quelli(ma questo dipende dagli ospiti come si comportano non dalla struttura)l'unica cosa un po scocciante che se tutti stanno usando la doccia nella struttura nello stesso momento l'acqua arriva tiepida se nel mio caso si sta nella stanza privata più lontana dal serbatoio.Comunque esperienza positiva premesso che andavo solo a dormire la sera dopo aver girato San Marino.Al primo piano sotto la struttura c'è tipo un risto-pub, pizzeria, e anche un supermercato per fare la spesa, a meno di 5 minuti a piedi bar con tabaccheria
