10/10 Exceptional

This place is really fantastic, just 5 min away from Metro station. We're allowed to have check-out extension to 1PM so it helped a lot on our schedule. The room was clean, comfortable and the surrounding was reasonable quiet too. But being at this part of town, don't expect to have glittering neighbourhood you can find mostly immigrant community here. But we have no problem at all.

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.

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.

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.

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.

Lovely and safe hostel. I stayed in a 4 bed female dorm and felt so comfortable and safe. The room was so clean and the area was very quiet. The hostel is close to the metro and train station so was convenient to get around Rome. There were also luggage lockers which were very affordable if you want to leave your bag there after checkout. The only downsides were the lack of self catering facilities and the rooftop was only open for breakfast and then 6pm-midnight.

6/10 Good

The location is great for walking to all the tourist areas and is right next to the train station, but I don't think this is a 4 star hotel as Google maps indicates. It is a very pricey hostel with shady surroundings. No amenities are provided and need to pay extra for even towels.

6/10 Good

Staff were friendly and helpful.Location close to Termini and Ancient Sites was great. It was a shame that there was no access to the roof terrace between 10:00 and 18:00 and the bar was shut. Single room was adequate,bathroom good and bed comfortable.The lack of a fridge was a real shame. Probably wouldn’t go back.

4/10 Fair

Sillly rules about eating and drinking in the room. Food available looked poor, We ate outside during the holiday. The area looked run down with lots of grafitti and litter. If you are prepared to walk about 1 to 2 kilometres there were many good restaurants,

6/10 Good

Overpriced

We stayed 3 nights in a twin. It was essentially a hotel room, big and spacious with private bathroom. No problem with noise and very close to the train station. However, no breakfast included, no kitchen and the washing machines are 4 euro per wash or dry, expensive. I wouldn’t stay again as I think it’s very overpriced, I’d just stay in a regular hotel.

6/10 Good

the evenings with extra music

What, in my opinion (matter of taste), is that during the evening / nights they play really loud "stupid" eurotechno pop. So you don't really want to hang out in the lobby/foyer, or in the bar either. It would be okay if they kept the music in the bar, but now it's all over place. But it's my opinion and a matter of taste. Otherwise, it's really a nice and friendly place. Will most likely choose it again when I come to Rome

They were building or fixing something next to my room and it was a little difficult to sleep with the noise. There were some problems with the shower and the lamp on my bed didn't work but there was an extra wireless bulb in case it was needed. Everyone was very friendly and it was easy to get there from the Termini station.
