10/10 Exceptional

It’s very decent for the price. Super clean, in a great area (walking distance to Roma terminal) and plenty of restaurants. Also you can walk to main attractions from there as well and if you get tired there’s always the metro nearby. Super easy.

10/10 Exceptional

Nina was the best. Clean rooms, comfortable beds, nice quiet environment. Surrounding area looks a bit sketchy at night but just take normal precaution. No towel, you have to pay extra seemed not good. I would recommend.

Great place to stay had a twin room
Gary, 3-night trip

8/10 Very good

Good overall no real complaints. Bed was a big broken on one side with a loud popping sound on left side but not that big of a deal. Some guy when I first checked in was a bit disrespectful when I was confused about something, that was a bit off putting but overall a good stay in my books.
Conrad, 4-night trip

8/10 Very good

Overall we thought the hotel was good, we enjoyed the stay. It does say hostel, but we didn’t feel like we were staying in a hostel. It’s right next to the metro as well so easier to get around.

Room cleaning wasn’t proper in single deluxe… not hot but lukewarm water for shower. Front desk is a bit rude.

lilla, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

This hostel was perfect for our family's needs. They let us book a whole room for ourselves since we had 6 people. The staff was friendly and very helpful. Would highly recommend for any travelers. Don't be fooled by the outside neighborhood. It was safe and we walked just fine to and from the metro and train station with our children.
Lorena, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Very nice hostel, rooms are big, beds are comfy and there is a nice bar on roof top with drinks and food where you can hang up and meet people.
Karine, 5-night trip

Lovely staff ! Very convenient location.
Chi thanh, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Stayed for 3 nights and picked it due to it's proximity to Roma Termini. It was an adequate stay relative to it's cost.
Yasmin, 3-night trip

8/10 Very good

Excellent and helpful staff. Needs a real kitchen. Limiting food on premises to only what can be bought at the hostel is a huge mistake. Not many good restaurants in the immediate area. Pre-packaged breakfast served on a tray with no choice allowed is dreadful and way overpriced at Euro 8. Would only recommend this hostel if you need to be near the train station.

4/10 Fair

The restroom was in pretty bad shape; the shower leaked water onto the bathroom room floor and it remained wet the rest of the time. There a smell of mold all over the bathroom and it wasn’t clean properly. They charged per extra towels 5 euros just so I can have a towel to dry the wet floor. The “fresh” towels also smelled bad. Very disappointed on this property.
