The hostel was very good signposted! Gianni and his staff were helpful and gave us a lot of information on what to eat while in Siciliy, where you can get it, where the best beaches are and so on.

The food that Gianni makes is fantastic, and we even got to try local Sicilian specialties as a treat from him. The place is very... More

Gianni House is amazing! This hostel has everything you need Nice roons, very clean, great and delicious food, laundry service, wi-fi and specials people. Giardini Naxos is a paradise.
