How is Ostello della Gioventù di Volterra rated on other websites?
Without any warning we were accomodated in a different kind of accomadation than we had booked. Instead of the romantic accomodatinon in the areal of the former cloister we had to sleep in the room for old people that can hardly any move. There were even the special antiurinate sheets on the beds!That's why we were really disappointed from this accomodation.

Nice and modern hostel just outside the city and close to the motorway. Very modern and clean bathrooms. Friendly and helpful staff. Free and safe parking next to hostel.
Unfortunately no (free) Wi-Fi. Reception is closed between 12-16h.

This hostel was a pleasant surprise. It's was the cleanest hostel (outside of Switzerland) that I've ever stayed in, and everything was new and functional, including the massive lockers. I broke my rule of not having breakfast in hostels, and while the breakfast was nothing to write home about, I enjoyed the old fresco in the breakfast room. The hostel is a bit of a walk from the town centre, and you have to negotiate roads without pavements to get there. Finding the hostel was a bit of a pain, and there weren't any taxis in the middle of the day. The bus service is rather infrequent and counterintuitive, so you have to be lucky. However, if you find a good map, it's close enough to walk from the main bus station, and it's all downhill. It was in a quiet location once you got your luggage there, and only 15 minutes walk up to the centre via the stairs. Best of all it's very reasonably priced and I would definitely stay there again.

When you want to return to the same place, it's the best recommendation. We will be seen again!

It's a wonderful place to relax. It's very quiet, clean and beautiful. It's not very close to the center but there are buses to go to the village.
