Very modern, organised and lots of space to relax. The staff were very friendly and the breakfast was good, the location is a short walk from Ortigia (which is what you want) and the recommendations from staff were really thorough and helpful, thanks for the arancini hook up, had the best one yet at Bar Midolo.

Hostel itself is clean. Staff friendly. Kitchen is good, but breakfast is average. We had a twin room with ensuite, which was fine - except that being 50m from the train station we could hear all the train announcements from about 6.45am to 11pm. Made a good, relaxing sleep extremely difficult.

Whether you're coming in to town by train or bus, LOL hostel is easy to find and right near them both! The staff are friendly and as soon as we checked in the receptionist produced a map and wrote in all the good sights and local eateries and necessities and shopping. The whole hostel is new and clean and it... More

What can I say about that hostel? That is the best one I've ever stayed in! First, the bedrooms are extremely clean. You are even given a free locker in the room. Second, the common rooms are spacious. You have a TV, sofas, a kitchen you can use whenever you want, free pasta (you have to cook yourself, though), very... More

I stayed there with my boyfriend for a couple of nights in July. We arrived by car and were delighted to have a space to park just in front of the hostel. The place is clean and modern, with a fully equipped kitchen and breakfast provided, too. We enjoyed evenings in the garden socialising with the other guests. We had... More

Great location. Close to bus and train station. Staffs are very helpful, gave us tips where to eat and not to. Provided us with a map with a mini tour around the town. We stayed in a 20 bed dorm- but it didn't feel crowded. Beds were comfortable. Need more showers though. But all in all, great place to stay... More

Best hostel I've ever stayed in - incredible facilities with a wonderful kitchen stocked up with the basics which you can make use of. Most of the staff we met were really helpful, friendly and made us feel at home. The private room we had was as good if not better than many hotels. We did have a bit of... More

I just completed a 3+ week trip around Italy and Greece. I stayed mostly in hotels (4 different hilton hotels), and once in an apartment, but without question the best value was the LolHostel. The staff are SUPER nice, the rooms and bathrooms are SPOTLESS (and cleaned thoroughly and daily by their wonderful maid), and the security is great (nice... More
