Ostello Brikette is a lovely and cheap place to stay in Positano for those on a budget. Italian Cristiana and Brit Peter make excellent hosts, with their well-stocked and very inexpensive bar, and Cristiana is a superb chef, whipping up splendid pasta dinners each evening. The dorm is fine -- it is apt to get a little noisy being adjacent... More

The staff was extremely knowledgeable and proactively provided assistance to us. After studying in Rome for 4 months, I had not found better mixed drinks and/or drinks that are more affordable than I did at the bar in Brickette. The wife cooks homemade dinner every night (as an option to avoid going to an overpriced restaurant in the area) for... More

Staff very helpful and friendly. They were more than happy to offer advice on where to visit and places to eat. Rooms were fine and clean as were bathrooms. The hostel has a lovely terrace which has an amazing view, perfect for sitting out and relaxing both day and night. Positano itself was a lovely place, admittedly not a great... More

Stayed here a couple of years ago and nice to be back. Staff really helpful and plenty of help and suggestions about what to do. last time went in August and it was busy, this time it was quiet so help and suggestions were really useful. great views and a good base to travel from.

Spring was a beautiful time to visit Positano and Hostel Brikette was a great place to stay. There are amazing views over the town and the bay and the terrace is a great place to sit with a book and a drink from the hostel bar (great prices!). Breakfast is available i tried different items which were all tasty and... More

The day I arrived I felt something was not right when they insisted on searching all bags of newcomers for bed bugs, then on checking in, all beds in all rooms were covered with plastic taped to them. The first night a... More

Very nice place for backpackers travelling on the Amalfi coast. Clean, decent and a nice terasse. Helpful, young team but matresses are covered with plastic coating, so sleeping is very noisy and not very comfortable (at least in the 8-bed-rooms). But it is ok for one or two nights.

I had read up on this Hostel before hand since I had had some bad experiences at others. From what I read, there were no lockers available and the doors didn't lock. That was completely accurate. I stayed in a 12 person dorm, which gave way on the terrace (very loud at night) and it was a door with shutters... More

Stayed here for a week this past summer, and couldn't sleep because the rooms were too loud. Front desk kindly offered to upgrade my room for free which I was very surprised at, and was looking forward to a pleasant experience. After they changed their minds because they realized they had overbooked a couple days later, they attempted to kick... More
