Great location, close to everything.
We had a very small apartment. It could have been cleaner, the toilet was smelly and not clean, the shower was very hard to use and the bedding looked grubby. The staff were very pleasant and helpful. We were woken one night at 2pm by the sound of two men talking in the courtyard and the smell of their cigarettes filling our room.

No horsetail mat
The worst thing was the 34 steps from the road to the door. I suppose when they are full they need tables and chairs in the narrow corridor from reception to the dormitories, but not when I stayed. Kitchen facilities were good, but getting in and out was tricky as there was a table very near to the entrance. The bunk beds were unusually well spaced vertically. It was possible to sit up in the lower bunk without hitting your head on the upper bunk.

Convenient location, great staff
Stayed here for 4 days in private room. It was convenient. Staff were incredibly sweet and helpful. Location is ideal. It is a block away from main tourist area, shopping, Greek theater. It is a 10 minute walk from bus station, 20 minutes if you are dragging luggage, but really wasn't difficult. Kitchen is small, as all in Sicily, but I was able to use refrigerator and many people made dinner every night.

Terrible value, dirty and purposely misrepresented
Their hostel may be ok but we booked the apartment with seaview. Really run down with a few bits of wood tacked to the wall to make it look 'beach hutty' in the photos. Terrible soft camp bed. Dirty mouldy bathroom with duct tape glass holder, holding a dirty glass. Noisy apartment block. Worrisome padlock on the inside. Corridor and rest of block very run down, plaster falling off the walls. Paid 80 euro - very bad value. Try the soleado instead - very friendly and much better value - and you get a pool and brekkie!

Séjour agréable , superbe vue du balcon dans le studio see-sea view. Studio simple mais propre . Merci encore pour l'accueil de Gaetano et ses bons conseils ainsi que Lucas qui a été très réactif lorsque nous en avons eu besoin. Manque de pratique dans le coin cuisine et danger avec la plaque de gaz , pas d'eau chaude àl'évier. Il manque fauteuil ou petit canapé pour se poser. Problèmes d'accumulations de sacs poubelles au pied des escaliers de l'immeuble.

Dos días en Taormina
Un poco decepcionante. El apartamento es muy pequeño. La cocina no se ve en las fotos y se entiende porque. La cama es muy incómoda. Deberían cambiar el colchón urgentemente. Ahora es verdad que el baño, la terraza y el acceso privado que tienen para poder ver el teatro griego está muy bien. Pero también hay que decir que ha sido el alojamiento más caro de nuestro viaje en toda sicilia y que no ha sido el mejor en absoluto. No vale lo que cuesta...

Buen hostel
Taormina es chico y no hay mucho para elegir. Asiq es un buen hostel, no lo duden! Sepan que para llegar desde la estación de tren hay q tomarse un colectivo. Personalmente no me fue problemático, pero si me fue una sorpresa. La gente es muy amable, y tiene una terracita de ensueño.

安くて良い!オーナーさんもとても親切。場所も住所近くに行けば小さな矢印の看板があるので、分かりにくいけど見つけられると思う。観光場所も近い。言葉がちゃんと喋れるなら、楽しめると思う。そうじゃなければ、少し騒がしいかも。キッチンが使えるのは良い。残念ながらサイト上とは違い、ベッドルームまではWi-Fiは届かない。
