Wanna get an authentic feeling, how the lodging of a roman prisoner feels like? Go for it! Bugs, broken showers, keyless rooms included. After the stay, it takes at least 3 days of revocery.

A large group of us had planned to stay at Happy Days Roma for 4 nights. First we stayed for 3 nights, then travelled to Sicily and where then supposed to stay for another night before heading home. The location of the hostel was quite handy, very near to the Vatican, and free pasta was offered every night, but that... More

I am kind of surprised at all of the negative reviews on here. I am not sure whether or not I was lucky, or if other people are blowing things out of proportion. On bed bugs: I will say that I stayed there for 8 nights, and did not have a single incident with bed bugs, as many have reported.... More

I stayed at this hostel with a group of friends from my study abroad program in Barcelona after we finished. When we arrived the place was dirty, the elevator hardly worked, and the employees were all males (kind of uncomfortable if something were to happen which....). One of the employees became obsessed with my friend i was traveling with, telling... More

The hostel is located in a nice shopping street. It is nice to just walk around the area and find some nice places. You can also walk 10 min to get to st. peter's which is really awesome to visit at night. It takes about 5 min to get to the metro station but I would consider another alternative during... More

This hostel is unbelievably terrible. Security is so lax that anyone could walk in. There are no locks on the doors and no way to lock up your personal items. They claim that the hostel is open 24 hours, but from 11am to 4pm they lock you out to "clean," when really they don't do anything at all, and at... More

The hostel is very dodgy. It is not clean. There were only 3 lockers in a 9 bed room. The showers didn´t work properly. The breakfirst was not good either. One girl got sick from the food and told the staff and they said is not possible, they have the best food ever. Everything is clean and fresh. But I... More

This place is pretty dodgy. All beds in one dorm, no locks on anything. The shower was awful. The people staying there were really nice thank god but the owner was there all the time and was a weird old guy and yelled at us for making any noise. The only reason I wasn't scared to stay here was because... More
