I wasn't a guest of the hostel but its owner, Monty, is a really nice person. I left my lagguage to his Washing Machine Self service for a couple of hours and I paid less than half of the price of Termini station deposit lagguage. We had also a nice conversation and he was really helpful.

We stayed here because it was pretty cheap and close to the center or Rome. First of all - it is impossible to find the place. There is no sign outside. The only reason we found it was because "Monty" was out front calling our name to tell us to come up. When we got the room it was small,... More

Our room was very unconfortable: small, dark and in our bath the WC didn't work! There aren't common spaces or kitchen, and the luggage left after the check-out was for pay! Simply the worse hostel I've ever been!! The only good point for this hostel is the location, but in the same area you can find a lot of better... More

Good location is only thing I can really say. Staff (males) entered room "to check on things" while we were in resting. Bathrooms literally open to desk and have slated doors. When we checked in we stood in the hot moist air from a gentlemens shower. One shower curtain was moldy, other shower didnt have a complete glass door acrossed... More

I stayed in this hotel for 1 night only.. I was supposed to stay for 5, but I had enough after the first night. Like some other girls wrote before me, the hostel owner comes into rooms without permission. I was also a girl travelling alone and he offered me a coffee (he said they do that with every guest)...

Stayed in this hostel a couple of days ago for one night. I was only there for a few hours and I am so glad I did not have to stay there longer like some of my friends did. The only redeeming thing about this hostel was the location which was a one minute walk to the Termini station. The... More

As a previous reviewer mentioned, this hostel is in a great location (ie a few minutes walk from the main Termini Station). It's also cheap. However the rest was disappointing: it has two tiny old, not very clean, shower room/toilets with cold water and manky loo seat. A cramped dorm with upper beds unstable (my friend almost fell through the... More
