I would not recommend this hostel. The only thing it has going for it is the location. Other than that, the hostel is very poor. There is a lock-out between 10-17 due to "cleaning", however the hostel is not very clean. The rooms have no locks and there are not enough lockers in one room for everyone in the room. The staff often come off as rude (especially one of them) and I caught one of the staff members trying to steal something that was lying on my bed.

The hostel is located in a very nice street of dowtown Rome. It is within walking distance (from 5 to 15 minutes) to San Pietro, Castel Sant'Angelo, Piazza del Popolo and Piazza Navona. Staff is nice and practical. I expected a bit more cleanliness: though the rooms and toilets are cleaned daily, it get can get pretty dirty by the end of the day. Nothing terrible though! For me the location was balancing all the rest, very very good!

The hostel is allright, nothing amazing, but definitely worth staying in due to the location. The other guests seemed to be having a good time, I just didn't like the fact that it felt more like being in someone's old flat and not in a hostel.

A guest burst a pipe the night before I arrived; I received no email informing me, but was moved to their "sister hostel" Mamma Mia - That place was ridiculous, I do not recommend it unless you're willing to pay for a 4 or smaller room. A bunk broke with a girl on it in the middle of the night, luckily no one was hurt. And the ONLY desk worker smelt of musty body odor, wore the same outfit for 8 days in a row. If it's anything like it's "sister hostel" Happy Days is not where I'd stay.

The hostel is a bit far away from the center. You'll have to walk there if you miss the last metro at 11h30 on the week, but it's quite safe, and almost no body on the street after this time. Anyway it;s the best place to avoid the tourist. For the rest, it was quite correct. I'm sure to recommend to my friends.

Bathrooms weren't great but functional - though wasn't staying here for that. Location is nice and I liked that there was a gas stovetop even if I didn't use it :)

This Hostel is incredibly unclean and had bed bugs! The staff were completely inconsiderate, and irrational, our only assumption was that they must have been on drugs. The security for personal belongs is completely non existent. On one of the nights we stayed here the staff had triple booked a bed, resulting in multiple arguments and rearranging of rooms in the middle of the night. The bathrooms were absolutely disgusting and the staff blasted Ricky Martin music late into the hours of the night

The hostel was super close to Vatican City, but about a 20-30 minute walk at minimum from anything else you might want to see. Also, the metro was a good 10 minute walk, but rides are only 1 euro. There are lots of bars, restaurants and gelatto places on the same street as the hostel, which was really convenient. The guys that worked there were pretty nice, and they gave out maps and directions. Definitely bring shower shoes though, the showers take forever to drain!

BEST HOSTEL IN ROME!! The atmosphere here was extreemly friendly, as said by other reviewers it is a good place to meet people and have a social drink. Location is very good, walking distance to most places. Supermarket just 1 min walk away, high street for shopping. There was a decent kitchen for cooking. Computers in the common room with free internet usage was a bonus. Rooms were cleaned daily to a high standard. Raul was really helpful and friendly ..... If I come back to Rome again, I kn
