Lecco Hostel uses the Welcome App to register guests online prior to their arrival at the hostel via self check-in. Through this app, each guest must provide their details and a valid photo ID. Online registration is mandatory and those who do not register before arriving at the hostel will be asked to do so at the front desk.
For each reservation made, the reservationist will receive an e-mail with all the instructions to follow to complete the registration of all guests online before they arrive at the hostel.
To check in at the hostel and receive your room keys, be sure to bring the same ID you reported during online registration.
Guests without a valid ID will not be allowed to check in and the reservation will be cancelled. You will be charged for the first night of the reservation and no refund will be given in this case.
