Perfect hostel for backpackers, groups of friends and solo travellers. Reception staff are welcoming, professional, and available throughout the night. My mixed dorm was clean, comfortable and all the amenities were much appreciated (Large, free locker with lots of storage space, 2-plug socket right next to each bed, chairs, a table and clean fresh bedding.) Downstairs there is a bar where guests hang out, have a drink and talk with other travellers & from 10pm-1am there is karaoke. There is a free-to-use kitchen with loads of seating space, a large fridge and is equipped with all the cooking utensils one might need, as well as a microwave and 2 hobs. A huge surprise for me was the showers, which were just perfect in every way. They were clean, spacious, the water pressure was just right and no issues with the hot water. Make sure to bring your own towel as this is not provided, but that is expected as it’s not a hotel establishment. Toilets are equally as clean and accessible. The hostel is located literally less than 5 mins walk away from Rome Termini which is the main train station with an abundance of bus stops - very convenient for if you’ve booked a bus/coach ticket from the airport to the station or vice versa. It only took me ~25 minutes to walk into the centre of Rome (where trevi fountain, pantheon are) so this is also easily doable if you’re struggling to navigate the metro. Alessandro palace and bar is absolutely worth the money and i can’t recommend it enough.

This is a fine place to stay. There’s nothing spectacular about it but for a stay in rome it’s good. It’s nice that it’s close to the train station but a pretty far walk to anything else but we don’t mind walking.

Great location to the station, but the bathroom looks or feels a bit unclean or disorganized. It has wide lobby and good reception and paid lockers, but prepare some EU€ coins before your trip to operate the lockers.

ممتاز، ولو رجعت لروما وادور هوستل بسكن فيه

الهوستل نظيف، تعامل الموظفين على مستوى عالي.. تبريد المكيفات ممتاز ، يعيبها انهم يطفونها النهار. شخصيا مدينة زي روما فضلت اني انوم شوي الظهر عن الحرارة وقلة الفعاليات خلال هالوقت، خاصة ان روما حية مساء. ميزته اللي خلتني اختاره قربه من محطة روما ترمني وهي المحطة الاساسية يبدو لي ومنها القطار ينطلق لبقية المدن والارات ، وايضا فيها محطة تجمع باصات ومترو.

Great location for the hostel and great hostel! They came in and cleaned the beds/sheets as well as the floor and bathroom after every checkout I witnessed during my stay. The staff were helpful and friendly and spoke English, too. There is a tax you have to pay in cash (I believe it was about 4 euros a night) and 2 euros cash deposit for the room key. But you get that back if you return the key. There are free maps of Rome, they have a bar and vending machine. There are some restaurants right outside of the hostel, too. Great place.

Friendly staff and reasonable rates!

Location and price was great. However, no towel service and the elevator not working made a little bit uncomfortable The kitchen was not a pretty picture either, but the staff is real friendly so that was good. Overall I like it, since I only stayed there for two nights and it was only to sleep and go.

Easily accessible and clean!

It was a short stay and we were exhausted after touring the city all day, so no interactions with other guests but the hostel seemed to put on a number of social events throughout the week. Private room was clean and comfortable.

Great Location, but had some sacrifices

The location was the best part about this hostel. 5 minute walk to the train station and easily acceaaible to transit or a brief walk to the tourist attractions. The rooftop patio is something everyone has to go up to when staying here. Happy hour is very cheap, but the experience alone is fantastic. On the negative side, the rooms were pretty bare and the lockers were too small for my bag (45L backpack). The washroom also didn't have any pressure in the shower and it was either really hot or hot for the temperature settings.
