    far from Vatican by walking, but not a big problem

    The location is good, close to the termini(bus and train) restaurant and bar nearby, not too far from the place to visit But yes, far for walling but not a problem

    Unfortunately, there is a bar downstairs. It’s very noisy at night from 12 to 3 am. You need the earplugs for sure to be able to fall asleep

    The place has a great location, very close to the train station and the Metro station. Also there are lots of restaurants nearby very convenient. The staff members are very helpful and nice It’s nice to have air conditioning in the room

    The bathroom has no ventilation, so it was a bit stuffy. The bed was not the most comfortable and the blanket was too thin.

    The staff was friendly and nice. The location was great, a 10-min walk to Roma Termini station and another metro station.

    Dorm was cleaned daily, and location was good.

    There's no kitchen to use, but they have a fridge and a microwave. The fridge is too small, there's no room for everybody's stuff, and the microwave was usually dirty.

    The staff was very kind and willing to help. The room was clean, we had a functional airconditioner, which was essential, because the temperature was so high.

    it's fine if you want to spend a few days in Rome and not spend too much money.

    there was only one electricity point in one room and no individual lights near each bed only a hanging lamp with a very bright light. there was also not much space to store luggage within the room. Underneath the hostel is a bar that plays loud music every day of the week so good earplugs are a must. there was one small fridge for at least 4 rooms with multiple people so this fridge was always packed (I was also not sure if they cleaned it out regularly).

    The location was great! it was near the train station and large bus station. The staff was friendly and helpful. you could determine the settings on the air conditioning yourself as long as you can agree with the rest of the room. The bed was comfortable and clean however, it also creaked badly. Compared to other accommodations in Rome during this time it was not expensive.

    I stayed in a room with 4 beds. It was quite small and sometimes it was getting hot because the outside temperature is hot too. Another thing is the staff just throw away my shampoo bar and she said you didn't put it in the bathroom so I don't know what to do. But I disagree with that if it's not in the trash bin why would you consider that trash and throw it without asking. She paid for it but of course, I couldn't get the same one in Rome. So I was pretty upset about that. There is no common room or anything so space is limited within the room.

    Location was good.

    It was quite expensive for the services they provide. I had some red bites in the morning which could be due to some bugs.

    The location was quite convenient, being 10 min walkable from the main station. The staff were very nice, I couldn't arrive on the first night of the stay because of transport issues, so they were quite flexible with my arrival time and didn't cancel my booking.

    The elevator was broken for most of my stay. It was 32 - 34 degrees outside every day & they refused to allow the a/c to be used until after 9:00 pm, except for the last day when it was 34°c all day. It was horrible to be in the room most of the time. Staff were not always pleasant to deal with. The cost of the beds/rooms is severely overpriced for rooms with no a/c.

    The bed was ok. The wifi was good. Lots of hot water in the shower.

    There were only 2 plug sockets in the whole room for 6 people. Lots of small repairs needed e.g. the toilet lid fell off every time. After I'd checked in, it was impossible to find a staff member to talk to - I even tried using the booking.com messaging feature but got no reply.

    This place is fine if you're not inclined to sweat the small stuff. The rooms were fairly clean and comfortable. The air conditioning worked well and the blackout shutters were excellent! Perfect location.

    a refrigerator would be great

    I stayed in a 6-bed shared room. at first I was a bit sceptic, but everything turned out great. location, very friendly and helpful staff, price/quality. the place was clean and quiet, even though there’s a bar below the windows. I recommend 👍🏼
