The Location
LoL Hostel is conveniently located, very close from both Siracusa train station as well as the bus station. If you don't mind walking, the majority of attraction sights in Siracusa can be explored on foot from the hostel. Also there are buses to Ortigia very close from the hostel.
Rooms and Bathrooms
Each room has 4 beds and a bathroom. Each room is also equipped with an air conditioner which is great in hot summer days as long as everyone in the room agrees upon using it. The shower stall in the bathroom seems like standard European size shower. It is cleaned everyday but not immaculately clean.
Common Spaces
A communal kitchen is available for cooking. The common space in the kitchen as well in the library area is very spacious. There are no social activities organized by the hostel. Everyone is on their own exploring the city.
Summary
For the price of dorm room, it does not offer many services as other hostels. For example, there is no free internet. However internet is available on hourly rate. Also breakfast is not provided. There are no lockers at the hostel. They do, however, provide left luggage services for their guests. They also offer bike rental on hourly or daily rates.
If you are looking for a quiet place to stay close to the train and bus station in Siracusa, LoL Hostel might be ideal. But if you want other compatible services and values, perhaps other accommodation options may offer a little more.
