Casa Verdi - House of Travelers

Caution! Bed bugs! Unfortunately, a girl and I both got bed bug bites in Casa Verdi even though we slept in two beds far apart from each other in one room. We also know for sure that it came from Casa Verdi and had the bites diagnosed by a doctor. This was not a big surprise, because the hostel was not very clean. There was a lot of dust in the corners everywhere, especially in the corners of the bathroom and we noticed that the overblankets in the rooms were not washed after they were used by a guest. So unfortunatly i have to say it's no wonder that there are bed bugs. Very sad because the people were very sweet. Addressed that we had bed bugs from the Casa Verdi, I initially got back only an incoherent message with many typos. When I then pointed out the problem again, I was only told that nothing could be done. I was offered neither a refund, nor a partial refund, nor any other final concession. They just told me that it could happen anywhere, which is not true because bed bugs die if you wash bedding properly. The fact that another girl and I had bed bugs in two different beds shows that the place is not clean. The stitches are all over my face, I look like a puffball. It itches and hurts. I also have to disinfect all my luggage. Not cool! I've stayed in many hostels in Europe, I've never had this. I know other people have had bites too. We thought it was mosquitoes bites at first, so a lot of people just weren't aware. But I went to see a doctor and he clearly identified the bites as bed bug bites. So I'm sorry folks, but I advise you to stay away from there.

Very beautiful, compfortable and clean hostel with lovely staff, well-equiped kitchen and all together feel-good atmosphere.

Definitely one of the best hostels I ever stayed in. The volunteers and the overall atmosphere is amazing! Lots of shared spaces to connect with other travellers, clean and authentic! Only thing I missed were curtains on the bed for a little privacy
