Stay in the Heart of Rome –

Generator Rome is set a 10-minute walk from Termini Central Station and even closer to the Vittorio Emanuele Metro stop. This hostel set over 7 floors of a 19th-century building and provides free WiFi, a café and a bar.

The Generator Rome is great for visiting Rome as you will have plenty of bus and Metro links.

This hostel offers rooms with a private bathroom and dormitory rooms with an internal shared bathroom.

The Basilica of Santa Maria Maggiore is around the corner and you can walk to the Coliseum from here.

Central Station is a great choice for travelers interested in architecture, history and Roman Ruins.

The location. Although it's near the main train station, the neighbourhood feels dangerous and dirty. You can't take outside food in...which kind of defeats the whole purpose of the hostel. My bunk must have been located right next to a pipe, because all night you could hear water pouring down it. When I had a shower in my dorm bathroom, the water started filling up in the bottom and I realised the drain was clogged with hair. It made me wonder how frequently it gets cleaned. The door to the bathroom wouldn't lock out slide all of the way open. I read previous comments that were similar, and a staff member always replies to say "oh, thanks for letting us know" or "you can bring your own food in!"...but nothing obviously changed and there are still signs up everywhere. And whatever you do, don't order a hot chocolate from the cafe there... I don't know what was in it, but it tasted awful. They did refund my money though.
The rooms were large. That's it.

Room light is quite dim. The sink in the bathroom is rather small. The floor would get wet when washing face and there is no drainage. The drainage is only in the shower area.
Hostel is located near Vittorio Emanuele and Termini station. Common lounge and bar area have good vibes. We stayed in a triple room, room is spacious. We had a comfortable and quiet stay.

Receptionists are cold AF. Our stuff were stolen and when I reported it, receptionist was super unaccomodating. The bathroom is our room was broken, the flush was exposed. I am a big fan of Generator hostels, and i’ve stayed in a couple all over Europe but the Rome branch was utterly disappointing. Breakfast was more expensive yet less quality. Bread was either as hard as the table or as sweet as a spoonful of sugar. It was better last year. I do not know what happened to this place. I had high hopes and I was disppointed to the core.
Interior design was really amazing. Cleaners were more helpful and accomodating with my problems than the receptionists. Maybe they should switch jobs.

“Enjoyed my stay at Generator Rome - quite satisfactory for a hostel- Might explore Generator in othe”
- • Leisure trip

The rest space behind for guests could have been more interesting for recreation or it is a ' wasted area'
The room was quite big and with high roof. Four of us had ample space to our personal needs. The best advantage was the presence of a 'BIDE' in the toilet- it was a definite plus. The eateries were nearby so we were never left hungry - you can choose your favourite food. I would recommend Generator Rome to new-comers!
