Hostel Happy Days Roma Reviews

they change to us of hostel, when I arravied they told me than there was not my resevation number, i hd to show them mi confirmation e-mail, and then they changed to me to another hostel that i didn´t reserved, i was smaller than the original, the recepcionist does n't speek english, only italian. there are only 2 toilets and 1 shower for all the people in the hostel.

This is a strange hostel. We were asked to be out of the hostel by 7am each morning. They remove all the beds from the rooms each day and kept saying odd things about govenment inspections. We also overheard them say that they had more people staying in the hostel than they were legally alowed to. There are no locks on the bedroom dores and a strange small man comes into the room at between 6am and 7am and pokes you. The girls complaned that he was touching them in an in-appropriate way.

DON'T EVER GO THERE. most horrible hostel we've been in during our one month travel. We were woke up at 7:00 am by the hostel staff taking the beds away from the room for no understandable reasons. For example, I woke up at 7:30 am and went to the WC, when i came back, my bed was no longer there. The day before, they asked me to change bed because they had to remove the bed... Really horrible hostel with 3 showers and 3 toilets for around 70 people. I would never recommend this place.

This hostel would not allow you peace. Very invasive, the staff constantly wakes you up and makes it difficult for you to have a proper night of sleep. I would highly reccomend staying else where. The head of the desk (ALEX) would never answer your tourist questions and avoid and real helpful conversation. In all honesty this hostel ruined my trip to Rome. Because the staff was lousy, the atmosphere sucked, and most importantly, good luck falling asleep, they kick you out at 7:30am every morning

ALEX IS AWESOME !!!!!

This hostel was great. the staff were friendly and very helpful and knowledgable about the city. the hostel is a VERY short walk from the Vatican and a few blocks away from 2 different metro stations. The lock out time is nothing to complain about and other reviews have noted. Because even if you wanna stay at the hostel all day, you can. You just have to be out the rooms while they are cleaning. The only downside of the hostel is that there are only 4 bathrooms shared among all, which gets busy

What a lovely hostel. Staff were great. Free pasta was great too! I only stayed one night but would stay there again for sure! The lockout policy is a little annoying but most Roman hostels seem to have them.(kick you out of your room during the day for cleaning). They even brought espresso and baked goodies in to our room. Breakfast in bed in a hostel! Amazing!

Bad: Is very unconfortable that you have to evacuate the rooms at 10 AM also there aren't enough bathrooms, for sure at least once you will have to wait for your turn. Sometimes wifi didnt work properly . Good: 5 min from a metro station, 10 min walking to Vatican and they give you a little of pasta at night and the staff is very very nice, funny. If there is not a cheaper option take it.

Need to improve their lockers.

Definitely not my most enjoyable hostel experience. While lockout isn't a huge inconvenience, I dislike having my items touched and moved. They also don't provide a sheet to go under the blanket, and I had a different blanket ever time I came back to the room, making me doubt the cleanliness. Furthermore,while I understand a new staff being trained, it is still not justification for me living in 3 different rooms for the 4 nights I was there. Ridiculous!

Good location, not my favorite hostel. There were only 2 showers for the entire hostel, and they were in the bathrooms which made it difficult at times, especially when one bathroom light burned out. The common room smelled of cigarettes since they had a "smoking room" attached. They do spray every day, kind of weird, so we left our stuff in the common room. I believe staff was there somewhat monitoring it all day. There were lockers in the rooms, but they were fairly small- bring your own lock.

The hostel is terrible at all. They have a stupid lock out rule, bathrooms are terrible. But the location is good, and fortunately i met a lot of nice people there.

everything excellent, the staff were awesome, but the bathrooms were not very clean, but I really recomended this hostal

The staff are extremely warm and accommodating. The location is great, about 10 minutes walk from the metro. There is a great, relaxed atmosphere and if you want to save money they cook pasta each night for everyone for free around 9 pm. Thanks guys!

They greeted us in a friendly manner,they served a lot.there was no problem about anything,i recommend to everyone,enjoy!

First of all, there´s no registry of the actual nature of the reservation. We booked a mixed dorm for 6 (we were 3) and after the first night we were told to move to another room but half the staff was unaware (they told us there were orthodox musulim girls that didn´t want to share the room). The staff is not bad, but is not very helpful and uses room drawers for personal storage. Also they use the same key for every locker. The bathrooms were not plenty (had a 15-45 min queue every time).

Great location and near public transport. I would recommend just walking. It's near the Vatican and the Vatican Museum. The staff was great and friendly and really encouraged guests to interact and get to know one another. They tried their best to get people out of their rooms (free pasta and sangria). The only complaint I would have is the lockout and bathroom situation. Because their is a 10am lockout (really 1030-11am) Everyone tries to use the bathroom at the same time and there are lines.

Great Staff, friendly atmosphere. Rooms are fine. PASTA and SANGRIA is free!! In the morning they give you free coffee/breakfast. Cool place to stay. Ask for ALI baba and he will hook you up with discounts for restaurants. Chef Muhammad and Ali are doing an amazing job. I will definitely be back.

The Hostel was very durty in all places: bathroom, kitchen and rooms. The Location is good. They don't offer you lockers to rent. Few bathrooms for all gasts.

This is a party hostel with a capital P, so don't expect any peace, cleanliness or security. Great location. Good atmosphere. No sense. I could recommend a short stay there put it is not good for your health in the long run. It tries so hard to be a party place but then there is the lock-out during the day for several hours so you are unable to sleep late nor take a nap. Like I said, no sense whatsoever in their business but the character is still worth a check in my opinion.
