to get started.

I have been to many hostels in my life, that's how you make a social hostel right. The bar is buzzing every night with discounts and later even parties downstairs, some decent (don't expect too much yes) late night food options also in the area. The activities are well organized and no surprise it's an option to go out even for locals especially the Saturday night karaoke. The volunteers and the staff do a good job in being welcoming and informative. Location is good, close to the train station (where there's also a metro) so it's relatively easy to get in or out. It's a ~20 min walk to the main sights (you will walk a lot in Rome if you want or not). It's not cheap but i think all in all it's good value for money if you want to socialize.

The room is very clean and comfortable. There’s a safe for each bed which is very nice. Many events held at the hostel. Suitable for people who like to socialize and party.

I’ve been to many party hostels and this one basically owns the entire block with laundromats, restaurants, bars and clubs, and the facility is fun and engaging. The staff is very helpful

The location is perfect! Near rome termini the main train station. The facilities around the hostel are pretty good and the bar across the street from it it’s so much fun. I had a really good time there.

The hostel is near the train station, so I can manage to reach there easily. The staff was kind and very helpful. The room was clean and well-designed. It had its own bathroom, that made my time there easier. There was a deposit room for after the check-out.

Everything about this place is amazing! Rome is amazing , the people of Rome are great, I loved it !

The hostel is conveniently located within 5 minutes from Roma Termini and about 20 minutes walk from the main attractions. There’s a bar right downstairs (apparently they party every day), manage to check it out one night. Good vibe. If you’re looking for a place to meet cool people and party, this is the place for you. I’m also glad my room was towards the back. I didn’t hear the commotion outside. I can imagine it being a problem if your room is towards the street. Make sure you have ear plugs.

The location was close to TERMINI, a real plus, the staff was friendly and informative, open 24/7, kitchen in the basement, the elevator was unique, all in all, a wonderful stay.

Posizione centralissima, common room comodissima, ottimo il bar convenzionato. In the heart of Rome, comfortable common room and good pub in front of hostel!!

There isn't really a common area, most interactions happen in the bar across the street. I think they should add a shelve to put things near the bed in the dorm. It was a bit annoying. The hostel is located in 3 different buildings that are very close. I stayed in two different building on different occasions, I didn't notice any difference but you should know. It's not very cheap.

One thing I didn't like about the bathroom was the curtain. Personal preference for glass doors so that it ensures your stuffs outside don't get wet all all. Would appreciate a small rack to place own toiletries in the bathroom too
The hostel is situation in a central location very close by to Termini station. Rooms were clean and the yellow square basically has most of the things you need to find, a bar, restaurant, gelato place, laundromat etc.

Since there is a bar outside, there is an inevitable noise. However, it is not unbearable. Also, you have to wear a wristband the whole time. Although this is for security and it can be useful, I'm not sure if it is hygienic.
Somehow, I felt secure staying here. There were too many people ready to help (shout out to Tiago who recognized I had a Canon AE-1 camera -I hope I took some good pictures Tiago, let's see- and Anastasia who showed me around). Facilities were amazing. Kitchen was ready to use and clean (I made coffee with a Moka pot for the first time in this kitchen!). FREE PASTA at 6.45pm! What can be better than that? Overall it was a great experience staying here.

When you take into account that this is a MEGA hostel (Facilities span over like 5 buildings), not just a small family run one, you understand why some of the restrictions that others complain about, are in place. It's pretty expected that they'll charge you to hold your luggage (the hostel houses SO many people that securing your luggage requires extra resources/security), it's expected that they won't give a FREE towel to everyone, however when you rent it (3 euro) you can have it replaced with a fresh one as often as you like, and you get a tote bag which was handy to take my cosmetic stuff in and out of the bathrooms with. There is lockout from the bar and you can't bring alcohol into the dorms and common area, again so things don't get too crazy with the amount of people there. Yes, some things seem pricey...but this is Rome guys! Despite the size of the place, I never had to wait for a shower or toilet, and they were always clean, pretty dry, and stocked with soap and toilet paper. There's an area to actually sit (there's chairs) in front of a mirror and do your make up/dry hair. The staff were young, kind and willing to help.

Beds in the shared room is a bit too close to each other. Only one bathroom in a 6 bed shared room might cause some waiting in busy time. The people downstairs at the bar could be a bit loud. Consider it if you’re a person sensitive to noise when sleeping.
The room is very clean and comfortable. There’s a safe for each bed which is very nice. Many events held at the hostel. Suitable for people who like to socialize and party.
