    The property is not value for money. The room is practically empty with just 3 beds and gives an old vibe. The room door does not have a lock and you need to get your own lock for your luggage. Also, irrespective of the number of days of stay, you have to leave your room at 11am for the cleaning staff. The entire apartment could do with a bit of renovation and redesigning.

    The location is good - close to Roma Termini and ample of food options nearby. Bed was comfortable and clean. Locker facilities are provided at €5 per person outside of your stay timings.

    The staff must behave more welcoming. The rule of kicking out everyone from the hostel from 11 to 13 with the excuse of cleaning time is not pleasant for the guests

    Cosy hostel making most of expectations come true.

    extra expensive! no towers for free, no lockers for free. crazy for this price! Kitchen opening time is not comfortable - not allowed for morning using. Noise from the road.

    location is perfect! enough toilets and showers. Very clearly, every day cleaning. Only 3 beds in our room.

    When you first arrive, they will trick you into thinking you must pay with cash. But this is something common in Italy, they just prefer to receive the payment in cash because that way they don’t pay some of the additional charges that come with a card machine, if you don’t have cash, just tell them and insist and they will eventually give you a card reader. The place isn’t divided between men and women and the first night I slept with 5 men in the room. (I was the only woman) I felt a bit unsafe but everything went well. The next day, without asking, the person in charge, changed me into a better room. One of the bathrooms smell a bit bad, not extremely bad but a bit. It was one of the drains. I got stuck in the old elevator at 6:00 am in the morning, it was scary but the person in charged came (after I called) and instructed me in how to get out.

    It seemed safe, it was clean. There were enough bathrooms and showers, it has a kitchen with a fridge and other appliances you can use.

    Kitchen area was rather dirty and for all two days of my stay there was a guy sleeping in a kitchen area. That was unpleasant and made using the kitchen difficult in the morning. There were no screen or curtains between the beds in the room - not even minimum privacy

    The room was spacious, bed linen was clean, toilets and showers were old but clean. NB! You need to bring your on lock for the locker

    Reception starts late in the morning. The staff sleeps in the kitchen. You have to pay 5 euros to leave your luggage, first time I ever had to do this and they don't allow you to use any facilities after checkout, also first time I see a hostel with such restrictions. It is a place for a night or two.

    It is close to central station, bathrooms are big, only 3 beds in the room, safe.

    The one and only thing i have to complain is that the room is hot. There is only one weak fan for the whole room. But besides that, everything was great

    Everything was clean and the doorman was super nice.

    Staff were a little awkward and appears to sleep in the kitchen on the sofa. The kitchen could have some labels about where things are. Kitchen doesn't open until 1pm which was bothersome to me as I cook most of my food (lunch and breakfast) Wifi is super patchy, didn't work where my bed was in the room. .

    Great location, about a 10 minute walk from the main train station. Spacious room, had lockers big enough for my big bag. No aircon but didn't find it obnoxiously hot with the window open. Some street noise but nothing that disturbed me while sleeping. Fully equipped kitchen. Secure building and room. Has elevator. Overall I would stay again and better compared to other hostels I looked at for the price.

    They charge 5€ for keeping your bags once checked out, even for an hour. Not the coolest thing.

    Perfect location, really close to train/metro station, and walkable distance from main attractions in Rome. Super clean hostel, kitchen. There’s no a/c witch may not be terrible if is not so hot weather, but in summer just keep in mind you are going to be sweating at nights. Big lockers.

    Was farther than thought from Termini and the lack of AC was felt as Rome was very hot during my stay and the non-revolving fan didnt really cover the room of 3.

    I was availed a space with qibla signage to say my prayers, which was quite touching. Check-in was smooth and the night guy on duty was kind

    There is only WiFi in the common room. As i was there in july, it was really hot and the first night there was only one fan. The second night they brought in a second fan, this night was really ok. 92 euro for two nights is way to overpriced for a hostel, but i guess that's just Rome

    Located near the Termini Station. The rooms are quite clean, also the bathrooms, except the first had fungus at the ceiling (probably because many people shower and there is no windows. Reception is neat and common room is also nice to meet people. There's an elevator where you can also store a bike. There are cabinets in the rooms for which you need to bring your own locker.
