Looking for a hostel?

Budget travellers know that there is no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a bit more.

    Great location near old town. I was checked in by a kind host (wish I remembered his name) but I know that his horoscope sign is pisces :D. Its most likely the cleanest hostel that I have stayed at.

    The hostel was very close to the area of historic Matera, the area dei Sassi. It is only a few minutes walk to reach it. The hostel has one dormitory with bunk beds and three well equipped bathrooms. I arrived by bus from Taranto and although the bus stop is almost 3 km away from the city, there are 4-5 local buses that can be used to arrive to the hostel. Except from Sunday and the time between 14:00-16:00... No bus.
