BE AWARE Hostel Brikette, especially the owner

During 30 days of travelling in Italy, hostel brikette was definitely the worst stay. Me and my girlfriend booked a room with a double bed.
When we arrived we were assigned a room with two single beds insted of a double bed . There was absolutely no view, the room was very small, cleaness terrible. It looked like they just put in two beds in a cave. The bathroom upstairs made this weird loud sound all day that could be herad from our room. And I also observed an army of ants going around in the washroom. When we complained , one of the staff gave us 10 euro discount each day and gave us the money. But when we came back at night , they shoved in a note saying that the money had to be paid back . The owner chritnina wanted our money back. They gave us money and took it back !!.. 10 euro doesn't mean much , but the attitude of the owner when demanding the money back was horrible, and i was very offended.

If you watch carefully, u can tell right away the owner is trying to squeeze your mony as much as possible. First of all, in the shared rooms, they put you in very much crowded 10 + people room and charge 22 euros instead of conventional 18 ~20 euro. They control the amount of breakfast you eat by handing out crossaint one by one. And they charge u like 2 euro for internet.

If u are considering this hostel. I stronly recommed against it. One thing good about this hostel though, is the proximity to very nice restaranunt called constantine. ( very reasonable price, great taste )
