Funny Palace Hostel Reviews

It's a good hostel because it's located close to the train station. The reception is not available in the night and I think it's a bad thing.

We had a really great stay! The hostel was clean, the staff was very welcoming and friendly. Additionally, the hostel is perfectly situated, not quite in the city-center (which means it's a quite area) but it was nevertheless possible to go to the main touristic attractions by foot. If I go back to Rome, I certainly will go back to Funny Palace!

Johnny was extremely helpful and super nice. Would definitely recommend this unique hostel to others. Thank you!

Great place, and very central and close to train/bus station. Staff was very helpful with where to go, and updated our room so we didn't have to share a bathroom. Also threw in a bottle of wine! Only advice to fellow travelers is to take earplugs.... the street noise starts VERY early in the morning.

The shower head cannot be hanged up, which is very troubling.

Great location, everything is clean and well kept etc. unfortunately cleanliness doesn't contribute to hostel atmosphere, of which funny palace has little. Also no cooking facilities. If you want to socialise this probably isn't the place. Would not recommend for solo travellers. Groups will have no problems however.

I liked the people works on the place are very nice, friendly and kindly. The hostel is clean.

Lovely hostel, highly recommended! Each room has safe box for keeping personal belongings! Convenient location!

definitely more of a bed and breakfast - no common area or kitchen in this hostel (although our room had a mini fridge). it was great though - got tons of sleep and quiet there, and the manager helped us plan what to do based on the number of days we spent there. it was a lovely place.

Joni (proprietor) made every effort to make the stay enjoyable. Highly recommend.

Good place to stay but little expensive for the offered price.

Joni is very polite & goes through an ideal itinerary for you based on your length of stay in Rome. Basic clean rooms, no lockers, but a safe was nice. One bathroom for 12 people, so if someone is taking a shower and you gotta go, you gotta wait :/ surprisingly very clean bathroom, & constant, running, hot water! The pressure was lacking, but could be fixed by maintenance. Location to train station unbeatable, sights are a hike, but public transport is supposed to be great, I opted to walk.

Our stay was very good! We stayed in a private room, which was very clean and functional. The main inconvenience is that it was in a third floor, with no elevator. When we arribed the staff from the hostel helped us to carry it upstairs, but we had to carry them downstairs when leaving. Johny, who recieved us is very friendy and helped us a lot to organize our visits in Rome! However, as the hostel does not have a kitchen or a place to hung out there is no "hostel atmosphere".

Depending on where your preference of staying would be, location experience could differ. Since it is near to main train terminus, it was excellent for me. i would gladly stay there again :)

We had a nice stay at this hostel. The hostel it self has good, safe, quite and very clean rooms. Mabri, one of the owners, was helpfull and gave us many informations about Rome. He also upgraded our room to a better one with no extra charge and gave us a bottle of wine. The only negative point is that they didn't give me the receipt of the payment when I asked, saying that will do it later, but never did.

This place was great. Lovely, clean accommodations right near the train station. The free bottle of wine with check in was awesome, and the staff was SO nice. Discounts on laundry, free internet, free breakfast at a local cafe. No complaints other than that it would be nice if the hostel had a common room, and if the free wine came with a free wine opener :P

The hostel and staff were very nice; I staying in a private room and it was almost like a hotel. The only complaint I have is that the check-in was located next door and only had a small sign saying so, and would have been difficult to find if I hadn't run into someone else staying there on my way to check in.

Great hostel with very friendly people who run it.

Interesting setup checking into an Internet/laundry joint but the staff are all friendly and helpful. The free wine was awesome and Mabri helps with setting up daily itineraries. The neighborhood is forgettable, but the five minute walk to Termini makes up for it. Great staff and great hostel.

Don'y get scared, your check in is inside a laundry place, but the hostel is really nice! Staff were really helpful, giving suggestions on how to spend your time, where to go, and gave tips on scheduling museums and everything else! The bedroom was great, bathroom as well, everything was pretty clean! The kitchen is small, and the common area could be bigger to! Location is great, just next to the train station! I've done everything walking, but if you want is pretty easy to get a tube or a bus.
