Mondello Home Hostel

Mondello Home Hostel has the best hostel atmosphere that I have experienced yet. What I liked most about the hostel was the homey environment. Valentina, the hostel owner, gets to know all of her guests, clearly has a passion for travel and meeting new people and is overall an amazing person! Likewise, she cooks incredible breakfasts every morning (which you do not have to pay extra for like in many hostels in Europe). The rooms themselves are very clean and comfortable and guests have all the facilities/services they need like laundry, wifi, locks, etc. Best of all, Valentina helps with just about any question. Many guests discussed their plans with the day with Valentina to get her recommendations as well. Overall, Mondello was my favorite place I traveled to throughout a one month trip traveling around Europe. Besides the amazingly beautiful beach, my experience would have been nowhere near as great as it was without this incredible hostel. I even extended my stay because I did not want to leave. The smaller size of the hostel makes it a very cozy place to stay and get to know other travelers.
