Reviews (n/a Fair)
In the middle of nowhere. Got lost on the way there every night. Not in a good neighborood. Not what they advertise at all. Slept in cubicles. Dirty, awful showers, no outlets that are convenient. Owner doesn't speak much English at all. No toilet paper or soap in bathroom.
horrible! never go there!!!!
The staff here were really great. However, it is very far from centro. It was at least a 15-20 minute bus ride and another 15 minute metro ride to get anywhere of historical significance. Despite this, my husband and I would still probably stay here again. We were almost alone here and they gave us a single, lockable room together even though online it said we would have to sleep in separate rooms, which they called women and men dorms. We basically only slept and showered here so we didn't have to travel back and forth much. And really, if you are in Rome you'll want to be out all day! And, for the price we could not have asked anything better! And the water was hot :)
I so loved that hostel, away from the fuss of the city, I felt at home from the first night, the swimming pool was available only after my departure, but it will be definitly a plus for who stays in full summer. All the staff is very very friendly. The population of the area helped me a lot when I got lost. Enjoy it !
Very far away from the center of Rome. The bathroom is not clean, the room neither. The swimming pool is dirty. The location in the map that they show in the booking is not correct and the service was so regular, i do not recommend this hostel even if you want to keep money, you will lose it travelling in the metro and the bus for getting from Rome to there.
