Friendly helpful staff. The hostel is not near anything as is dated, but for the price is a good spot. Be careful when booking not to book two people like I did... still not sure how that happened. Staff was very friendly

well managed hostel. Stayed in a single room, clean, quiet, clean bedding, inexpensive, efficient girl at check-in. No complaints. Everything was o.k. If in Siena again I'll stay there.

This is exactly what I expected from a hostel. Could have been a little cleaner, but totally par for the course. Bunk beds with shared bathroom. It was nice that they had separate men’s and women’s rooms. It was a bit of a hassle to get the right bus out there, a few miles from the historic city center.

Nice atmosphere; no kitchen use; bed bugs

First impression of this place was really nice, it seemed big & well equipped for lots of people. It’s really close to the bus stop, not too far from the train station and only a short bus ride to the city centre. I got a bit frustrated because for some reason the kitchen is off limits to guests? I was allowed to put some food in the fridge but I was reprimanded for entering the kitchen (to fill up my drink bottle). Part of the reason you stay in a hostel is probably because you can’t afford to eat out constantly, cooking your own food is sometimes just the better option. Possibly the most frustrating thing was when a girl in my dorm claimed she had bed bug bites, and suprise, one day later I have all 5 night’s worth of bed bug bites all over my arms, neck and legs. Also, for young girls travelling, there was this older Italian man who didn’t work there but was there all the time anyway, seemed to hang around me, stare at me, and try to speak to me constantly even though we literally could not communicate or understand each other at all, just made me feel a bit uncomfortable. All that aside, I met some really lovely people, a staff member took two of us on a little evening trip to a country town, the building itself is pretty spacey and nice. This stay could have been really pleasant, one of my best, if it wasn’t for those few things.

The room is spacious and clean but no air con nor fan but it was quite cool in the evening so it was okay. Bathroom is old and need some renovations. The location is really far from the central but the bus stops are close by. Breakfast was simple and decent. Overall, it was good value for the money that I paid.

Wonderful, friendly staff; no air conditioning

The hostel was nice and the staff is incredibly welcoming and friendly, but keep in mind that during the summer it is very hot. I had a hard time sleeping due to the heat and had to keep getting up to buy cold water from the vending machine to hold against me to stay cool. Not a good fit if you're sensitive to sleeping in the heat and need air conditioning.

It needs to stop mprove

The hostel was cute, the bed was comfortable and the room was clean. So, it has the most important characteristics, but it needs better management. The breakfast had no fruit or yogurt, only sugar. Bathrooms ran out of toilet paper, the front desk had no change, the people who were supposed to sell bus tickets were not there, and the list goes on. All irritating but not earth shattering.

Easy on the pocket. We slept well.

First of all, you should judge a hostel for what it is - a hostel. You can't rate a hostel in comparison to big hotels with lots of amenities. Siena Hostel is run by the municipality and it's pretty basic. You get a decent room (no attached bathroom/toilet). We stayed as a couple and only used the place for six hours of sleep every night and the breakfast. Our beds were separate (as hostels are) but big/clean/comfortable enough. The room had a wardrobe, a sink-and-mirror, a desk, a waste bin and a window. The breakfast was alright. For a hostel, it serves decent breakfast - several kinds of juices and coffees to choose from, and croissants, donuts, granola etc. The staff are very friendly and helpful. The hotel is located a 25 minute walk from the Siena Stazione and it a good place to stay if you want to visit San Gimignano, Pisa and Florence (easy bus links). There are several restaurants nearby (both expensive and cheap ones, including a McDonald's two minute walk away). All in all, a decent place if you are a student and/or on a budget and just want a place to crash after a long day of travel, but not fun if you're the kind of person who spends a lot of time chilling in hotel rooms.

Good value

It's a bit out of the way, but it's perfectly possible to walk into the city centre from the hostel. The room had two beds and a sink, nothing fancy, but works well. The shared bathroom was a bit so-so.

Good hostel

I've stayed in several hostels and this wasn't the best, but far from the worst. The double room that I was in had a sink, which was fantastic. It's not very close to the main area of the historical part of town, but I had a car, so I just drove there and it took about 5 minutes. The breakfast left a bit to be desired, but at least it included breakfast, which many other places I stayed at on this trip didn't.

Clean and quiet hostel

I stayed 2 nights in the female dorm. The first night I had the place to myself, the second night there were more people staying, but both nights it was very quiet at night and I got a great sleep. Very impressed with the breakfast - quite a lot of food compared to the usual hostel breakfasts. Located a fair way away from the old centre of Siena, but there's a bus stop right out the front so it wasn't a problem for me. My one complaint would be the lack of privacy when it comes to showering - although the shower attached to the dorm is huge, there's nowhere to put clothes or even hang a towel, so you can't cover up before opening the door. All in all I was very happy with my stay at this hostel.

Great value

Cheap accomodation just outside Siena. If you don't mind a short ride with the bus (€1,20), it's the perfect budget accomodation. Bikes for hire at €8/day, highly recommended. Beautiful Montereggioni is just a 12 km ride away. Breakfast included in the rate, fresh croissants and a great selection of coffees.
