    A nice room in a great location!

    The kitchen was missing a bit of convenience, such as more mugs (especially big once), or more types of plates, a towel. But overall one can enjoy a cup of tea/coffee or make a meal no problem. There's also a fridge, so you can do groceries 😊

    A beautiful place in a great location, the centre of Rome is just a stone's throw away. The place has a nice design and a home touch (in the best sense of the word). You can see that things, furniture, fabrics were chosen with intention and a heart. The staff was wonderful, helpful and friendly. Definitely saving for future trips!

    One night curfew was not observed. There was a really loud noise in the kitchen. Songs played, singing, etc. This was not a pleasant situation when you have a challenging flight ahead of you.

    The price corresponds to the quality. I appreciate information via WhatsApp, even with photos. There was also a nice hairdryer in the bathroom.

    Bathroom is a bit old and could be cleaner. Some people were noisy on evening : a hostel is a place to rest and sleep well after a long day visiting the town, everybody should respect it but it's unfortunately not always the case :-(

    Friendly staff Charming room, with beautiful decoration Well located : walking distance to Vatican, close to the shuttle stop for the airport

    Not much. Just the shower in our room didn't run super hot and had a bit of a leak. But it was clean and functional.

    The bed was unbelievably comfortable!! We honestly did not want to get out in the mornings. The member of staff greeting us was very friendly and efficient. She also gave us a nice restaurant recommendation. The location is fantastic! There are some great bars and eateries close by, and your short walk to the very centre (<15min). The place was fantastic value for money. We didn't use the kitchen area. It didn't look too elaborate, but it is a nice to have. We would definitely stay here again.

    I have came pretty late, but it was not deep night. And I had a problem with password from big door, with key from the hostel. I was tired with my heavy bag, I disared to sleep and I was disappointed this delay...

    I have spent two nights almost near (0,5 km) Vaticano and Kastello Angelo! The room is not for 6 person. The hostel room consist from two rooms with three bed in the each room. The Supermarket PAM is located not very far, just on the opposite side of the street.

    Although outside doors were locking properly, the inside ones didn't which caused the mosquitos to enter the room at night. The price was too high for these standards. Wifi wasn't working at times. There was electricity shutdown 1 time. But all in all I had a very good stay there so if u r looking just for a bed to sleep i totally recommend it :))

    Everybody in place was very helpful. Common area was beautiful. Beds were cozy. There was electricity and lamp near every bed in 6bed room. There were quite large secure boxes opening with a key. There was a kitchen to use. Staff was answering their Whatsup. They gave me a towel. Decorations were beautiful

    Nothing.

    The location was great. I arrived by plane and caught the bus into the city. The bus stopped like 50 metres away, which was perfect. The entrance was a bit hard to find, since the Hostel is in the courtyard. Room was cozy and nice and staff helped me with everything I needed. I was also able to leave my luggage there after my check out.

    Things to note- the doors can be a bit hard to open and unlock but you get the hang of it. There are mosquitos and the kitchen is only open 9am-9pm so plan accordingly.

    The whole place has character! I was really comfortable staying here - good aircon, the beds are comfortable, staff are friendly, it’s a good location and I felt safe in the area.

    There were no divisions between the beds. I had to be very cautious in turning on the light so as not to disturb my room mates. There were no lockers and I just kept my luggage and bag under my bed.

    The location is very close to the Vatican. There are many options for restaurants and cafes around the area. There are buses passing and the nearest Metro is about 10 minutes away. I never had the chance to meet the caretaker but he made sure that I get into the hostel by reaching me through WhatsApp.
