ControVento Hostel

What I liked: 1 convenient, closed to cruise port, walking distance from bus terminal, customer services What I don't like: 1. no visible sign of hotel (it is list as part to tenant of the building which I didn't expected.2. Hotel is on the 3rd floor with no elevator.

Good location. Room too hot and too noisy. Definitely needs air conditioner and double windows. Service is great, very friendly and helpful. Did not sleep for 2 nights because of heat and noise..... Breakfast is good. Need walk 3 floors to go to hostel.

Stayed in spacious four-bed dorm with large locker with two shelves and large space with clothing rail to hang coats and put bag/suitcase. Key entry to room and need padlock for locker. Bed had charging plug, light and bedside table. Reception/staff very helpful and informative - especially Marta. Seemed genuinely interested in your day and provided a wealth of recommendations/information for making the most of your stay in Trieste. Have a communal kitchen where breakfast is served, which is a good place to meet people. Breakfast is included with toast, conserves, ham, cheese, cereal, yoghurt and biscuits. Showers and toilets are separate but close to the room. Male bathroom has three cubicles – shower/toilet, shower only and toilet only. Two communal basins. Soap included, but not body wash. Have a large communal area, tables with plug sockets plus sofas and a small bar. Located in square near restaurants and opposite boat port for Muggia. Around a 20-minute walk from the train station. One thing to note is the hostel is up quite a few flights of stairs and there is no lift available. Would stay again.
