In the hostel is a very good and friendly staff. Very atractive location (7 min. to the Coloseum, 5 min. to the Termini station and the Cavour underground). I can recommend sightseeing the Rome from this place to every one. You can take breakfasts as the snack on the trips.

the building, rooms and facilities are old and not quite clean - that's the only real shortage; the location is more or less: close to a metro station, and near a nice church, but not in the city center; free spagetti parties are good; security is good; the staff is really very friendly and helping, they give you a map and some advice on where to eat etc. The staff is excellent. The breakfast is a take-away set, good. The price is a little bit high but nevertheless Ok for the service.

It's a prett lived in hostel but the location is great just round the corner from the main train station and the people are really nice. The spagetti party every couple of days is a cheap alternative at 2 euros and the rooftop terrace is a great addition. The breakfast pack is really good and sets you up for the long day of walking around. The beds are pretty creaky and the rooms are very basic, there are not enough lockers in each room for every person but the hostel itself is pretty safe.

Good hostel, and a lot of fun with their spaghettiparty and loads of nice visitors from all over the globe. But be carefull not to piss of the owners. They explode! Scary shit. But all in all, a really good place to stay.

This place was great. The staff was super friendly and helpful. We arrived late our first night and not only did they let us in but they heated up some pasta for us and gave us wine and desert! They also give you a sack lunch in the morning filled with all sorts of goodies. There is a rooftop terrace where you can see all of Rome, it is absolutley amazing! I will definitley stay there again next time I am in Rome!

this place was great! i got there later than expected after a hellish day of travel and was well welcomed with a bottle of cold water and free pasta (delicious) on the rooftop terrace. the showers were cold but it felt great after the grime of travel and walking around the city. it's really well placed for all the tourist haunts and a quick walk from the station. also i left to go to the south for 8 days before returning to rome to stay in the hostel and they let me leave one of my big bags ther

First, you have to know that if you book a room for 2 or 3 persons, it is not located as said, but in an other street (via merulana). The residence here is very noisy, due to the street and the other imhabitants.
