The guy who is at night is zero polite, doesn't care about nothing, he's only watching you-tube's videos. There is no transport to the airport on sundays, so bad idea staying here if the idea is to take a flight that day..and on saturdays the first bus or train to go to Rome leaves at 10 hrs, so, you should anticipate this if the idea is to begin the city's tour early..there's nothing near from there,totally boring.

Idriss (the receptionist) was awesome! He was so helpful! And definitely made the visit more enjoyable. The location is very close to the ciampino station... Our flight to CIA arrived at 1030pm, and we took the shuttle for ~2euros and it dropped us off at a very walkable distance to the inn. The inn is very clean, and the rooms were spacious. two (-)s: 1) stairs! To get to the receptionist/rooms.... And with our luggage, it was a little tiring. 2) broken showerheads.

Very easy to find from Ciampino station. No one was there at check-out and it wasn't clear where I should leave the key, but aside from that everything was very clear.

Staffs were nice! They helped me a lot! and the room was neat and nice :) Even though the breakfast was a little bit disappointing, but except that, everything was fine!

It's very easy to get to the airport from here, but it's in a really sketchy area.

The room was big enough and so was the closset. Their our 3 common bathrooms, but as soon as 1 is in use, no one else can take a shower, because only little water comes out. The staff told us we could have breakfast at 5.30am (we had to be at the airport at 6am), but when we arrived at the bar, it was not open. ( we payed for breakfast, but did not get one) In their description they say it is less then 2 km to the airport, but actually it is almost 4 and we had to pay 20! euro for the cab.

I just stayed here for one night as I arrived in Rome really late, but it was a nice hostel and close to the airport. The guy at reception was really friendly and helpful!

The only positive thing about this inn is the good location as it is located just outside the station. The bedroom was also ok. However the bathrooms were very dirty. The toilets were a mess, and the showers weren't clean either. Also at first glance the price seems good, however then you have to pay extra money for each towel you use and also extra money to use internet. Moreover the breakfast included only coffee and a croissant. I don't like coffee so I had to pay extra money for a juice.

Location of hostel is very close to the train station and the bus stop (if you're going to Ciampino airport). My room was very nice and clean, but the only one minus - it was very cold. But there was unexpected cold in Roma in that time, and I found an extra blanket, so it wasn't very big problem. If I need, I would choose this hostel again, it was very nice.

I imagine if you're flying out from Ciampiano during the day, this airport is great. However if your flight is around 6am, you might as well save your money in the city. This hostel was pretty average for it's twenty euro price tag. And you have to pay twenty euros for the taxi because the bus doesn't start running until after five am. I was not impressed.

There were only two other people in the hostel, aside from myself, which was very weird. I waited about 10 minutes before someone appeared at the reception. He was very unhelpful and sarcastic and placed me in a room I did not book (6 beds v. 4 beds). When I pointed out the mistake, he made me show the reservation before I could move. Overall a creepy-weird experience and a taxi to the airport costs 20 euros from this hotel. You will not actually save any money by staying at this hostel.

Perfectly located if you're to take a flight from Ciampino early in the morning, very elegantly furnished with a lovely design. Idris, the desk staff, was extremely helplful with our Bengali roommate who needed a charger, and very interesting to chat with (we were about the only people in the hostel at the time :) ).

You do have to take a train into the center of Rome, yes it is only a 10 min ride but you may have to wait addition 10-20 mins for a train.
