Slo Nice

Fantastic 5 night stay in a double room with shared bathroom. The whole hostel was immaculately clean and our room was large enough for two travellers, luggage and some additional floor space. Beds were on the hard side but that is exactly how we like them. Air conditioned but able to turn off and open the window for fresh air / sounds of the environment. We never had an issue with access to toilet/ bathroom during our extended stay. Breakfast was the usual European style and the area always had adequate seating. There was a guest fridge available and a number of travellers would eat dinner that they had bought in downstairs (food is not allowed in the rooms) Access to iron and ironing board - only noticed this on the last day. Location is excellent, staff friendly and very well priced for the area and time of year that we travelled.

Elea, made the experience unforgettable. She was so sweet and thoughtful especially knowing that our trip was coming to an end. She took her time to research a beautiful quaint town nearby that she suggested we visit, I believe it was called Villa France. Now regarding our overall stay at the hotel. I definitely love the other rooms that I was shown and if I visit again. I’ll definitely stay in a regular standard room. I HATE my dormitory experience and shall never book this type of room again. My trip was for a few days and I enjoyed the first group of roommates but the next group was horrible. One person had a strong odor and it really affected me. It was very difficult to sleep with the odor. There were no curtains in the rooms and the windows were so large that you can clearly see the other buildings outside. I always felt like someone was watching us change our clothes from their veranda. I did like that the beds were comfortable and concept is pretty dope. Love that each bed had a covering and a lamb inside and charging station. Lastly the ventilation system is horrible. The air is very dry and dusty. And unfortunately I got sick the final day of my trip. Overall, the location is great. A little walk to the beach area. I enjoyed the shops along the way to get to the beach. Lots of cool places to eat as well. Convenient location. Nice staff. Great hostel layout. Nice bath areas. Horrible breakfast. The best part of my experience at this establishment was meeting Elea and enjoying her hospitality. We also had a great time being outdoor most of the time.

Fabulous hostel in a great location close to Nice station and main shopping but only short distance to historic old town and beach. Stayed in a double room with shared bathroom. Bedroom was beautiful with 3 twin beds, lovely design and very clean. 3 bathrooms across the corridor also modem and clean. Could pay to store Luggage after checkout. Breakfast available but ate elsewhere. Not the cheapest hostel but very nice and comfortable beds!

Spent 6 nights in a female dorm at Slo Hostel while visiting the French Rivera and overall, I had a great stay. Hostel looks very new and is clean and modern but in a historic building with lots of charm. Bed and Wifi are very comfortable. The pod beds are awkward to make and the drawers underneath are a bit awkward but honestly the attention given to designing those beds is commendable. The little mirrored chest in the beds for makeup and storage was a great idea. Never seen that before! Location is perfect for the train station, but it's about 10 minutes to Old Town with the nearby tram. If you're doing lots of day trips, it's a great spot, but to access some buses and the water, it's a bit far. That said, I didn't have an issue with it. Hostel does NOT have a kitchen, but there is a small fridge for guests. Hostel also does NOT organize any activities or events, which personally I was fine with. Breakfast is about 10 Euro and looked pretty good and well stocked. I didn't get it but saw it daily when I had my own breakfast. Dorm room also had good AC, which was so nice to have in late June in Nice. A few things to note: - Elevator is functioning but makes a VERY loud weird noise as it approaches the third floor. - The shared bathrooms and showers are fine, but some doors stick or don't lock well. And the ventilation in there is weird because it can definitely linger smells. - Hostel has NO guest laundry but there is a laundromat nearby. - The female dorm has huge windows that overlooks residential buildings. There are NO curtains in that room, which made me uncomfortable at times. They should really add that because changing in the bed isn't easy. - There can be some loud street noise in the evenings, but it's not too disruptive, just be aware. - Dorm room doors automatically slam, which shakes the walls and beds. I get why they do it (for fire protection) but it is really disruptive given how hard it slams. Staff is very helpful and willing to answer questions, just double check some of answers because I did get misdirected a few times. Overall, I had a great experience at the hostel and would definitely recommend it plus stay again.
