    Our mattresses were not the most comfortable but we slept well.

    Everyone was friendly and helpful. They were quiet at night when we had gone to bed.

    • Bunk Bed in Mixed Dormitory Room
    • Stayed 1 night

    The bunk beds are really sketchy, a lot of movement, no ladders to climb up and down. I felt, value for money there are better quality properties around, but for one night and as a last minute booking it was sufficient.

    Location is very central to Roma where you will find various bars, clubs, restaurants and cafes all within walking distance. The check in was very easy and staff were very accommodating and friendly. 30mxn to hire a towel, the property is cash only. There is space in the public areas to do some office work and the wifi was good and reliable. Showers had hot water, though it took a little while to come through, there wasn't any need to wait for the facilities. There is a good vibe, but not much for party.

    The 8 bed dorm has no windows. There is 1 fan but the air gets veeeery think in the night. Suggestion: more fans/a fan for every bed. My bed had no ladder and I had to get up and down with a climbing-action. Upper bed had no electricity to charge phone. When the person under me turned, the bed was shaking so hard, it felt like an earthquake of level 5. I guess for the person beneath me it was the same, when I turned. I have stayed in hostels the past 9 months and this was the most unstable bed I have slept in. Does not match the price for me as beds are (other than windows) sth you can fix/replace.

    Great atmosphere, super cozy living-room, lovely neighbourhood and very friendly volunteers. It really feels like home!

    Such a shame that because of the layout of the property, my 8 bed dorm had no ventilation or windows. It was fine going to bed but by 1am every night with 8 bodies breathing and sweating I couldn’t breathe. I did have a sore throat beforehand, to be fair, but the stink of that room at night with no air flowing in was awful. I ended up sleeping on the sofa in the living room just to be near a window

    Amazing staff, amazing location, clean and tidy, and the free tea and coffee is a nice touch.

    The dorm has no windows and can be quite bad when 8 people sleep in it. The bunk beds are ok but quite flexible so you feel every movement of your neighbour.

    Staff was very friendly and the hostel itself is quite nice on a great location.

    Lots of fun in an old-fashoned hostel.

    Well, it's a very old building, and the dorm rooms aren't up to modern hostel standards (just plain old bunk beds with no dividers or curtains). The circuit breaker on the water heater sometimes trips and the water goes cold until staff reset it. Shower water comes from directly above, so hard to keep all your orifices clean :-).

    The staff are great, and the setup of the place makes for a lot of opportunities to meet other travelers. They have a full kitchen available for use, but there are so many eateries and food stands nearby you may not get to use it. It's located in a great area, and I actually never used any transport the whole 10 days I was there. I walked everywhere as the place is so centrally located. The showers use an on-demand water heater so no worry of the hot water running out. Power outlets next to your pillow.

    We had the private room, which was located right off of the living room. This was awkward as there was always someone asleep on the couch or watching a movie (not the other guests), and we constantly felt like we were intruding. Bed was a little hard. Probably not enough bathrooms for the number of guests.

    Great location! Lots of options for food and drink nearby, but still on a nice quiet street. Very easy to walk to a lot of cool stuff.

    The hostel could have been a little bit cleaner (it’s not dirty though!). The wifi didn’t reach the back bedroom. And there needs to be better access to drinking water

    Only 3 toilets and 2 showers for the whole hostel which means you’re often waiting for a free bathroom. The bunks are really shaky and you can’t sit up straight in the bottom bunk

    Such a good communal atmosphere which makes it super easy to meet people. Great location.

    1-beds are squeaky and old. if the other person moved my bed shook like there was an earthquake 2-They ONLY take cash. i stayed 3 years ago there and since then they still dont have a credit card machine! maybe it’s because they want to escape paying taxes or to save a few pesos but in that way they definitely chose their convenience over the guest’s convenience. 3-The 8 bed room has a big noisy fan, strong also that itll make you sick if pointed at you 4- internet signal in the room was bad

    1-staff were great. nice & helpful 2- I like the Roma area
