“I stayed here for just over a week and was surprised at how welcomed and homely the place felt. Mauro the man who runs things was a perfect gentleman and made sure everything was spot on. I’ll be coming back for sure. Thanks guys”

“ I would like to take this opportunity to thank the great and super friendly staff at the alba hostel, and special thanks to Mauro who makes everyone feel comfortable and welcomed and goes above and beyond in helping the guests at the alba hostel.”

“I had such a great experience at this hostel. Mauro made me feel completely comfortable and even checked on me when I was unwell and always welcomed me with a smile. If you need somewhere to call home for a little while this is the perfect place!”

“I've been in countless hostels around Europe and this is by far one of the best I've ever stayed in. The atmosphere is so wonderful, lovely and I always felt safe as a woman - the owner is so so so kind and friendly and the beds are so comfortable. I can't recommend this enough.”

“Had a wonderful time exploring Glasgow. Stayed here as a volunteer then as a guest, I'm always amazed by the hospitality and vivaciousness of Mauro, also the owner has a genuine interest in people. Very relaxed and family friendly vibe at Alba.”

“I really liked this hostel. My first time In one and I loved it. At the hostel you have a games room and a round table for conversation and table games. Very good. If I could, I would live here.”
