When we arrived, we were told that that an additional tax to the city of Rome would be assessed at 2euro/person/night. Also the owner only accepts CASH payment for tax reasons. The breakfast at the bar down the street is a decent croissant and coffee, but not very filling. The hotel staff were always available when we came to the front desk. The rates were still relatively cheap for the size and quality of the rooms.

Very nice hostel with a good location, only a few minutes walk from Termini. The room was clean and nice. We had breakfast in a cafeteria nearby the hostel, it was excellent. The staff was great and very kind, they always fixed our problems and we got a bottle of wine as a gift. Thanks again : ) Highly recommended for everyone who wants to stay in a great hostel and don't want to pay a lot. Rome, we will return soon!

I don't recomend this hostel to anyone. We arrive at 10AM and they told us to leave the luggage in the reception until the room was cleaned. Then, we come back at 20hs and they told us there was a problem with our room. They send us to a different hostel (Beautiful 2) worst and cheaper than Lella. We asked for the difference in the price, and they refuse to give us the money. The breakfast (1coffe and 1croisant) was served in a bar with no available tables or seats.

Very pleasant room. Clean bathrooms. Extremely friendly reception staff. Close to Termini station and perfect as a base for exploring Rome.

Actually everything was good, specially for the amount we paid, but the guy at the reception wasnt that friendly and we had to ask for every information. a bit noisy from the streets at night, but ok.

I stayed there with one other person and we have to say that we had a great experience. The staff was very gracious and generous and very friendly! They did everything they could to accommodate our needs. We even got a free bottle of wine! The rooms (because we stayed in a double ensuite the 1st two nights and a twin double shared the last night) were very clean and nice. I would definitely recommend this place to anyone going through rome!

My mother and I had a really fun time at Hotel Lella, largely due to the wonderful and helpful concierge/hotelier who told fantastic stories and made us laugh a lot. We were sorry we didn't get a chance to say goodbye. The hotel itself feels very secure and for budget accommodation the room was clean and comfortable.

The one good thing about this hostel was the location. It was a close 10 min walk to the Termini, Metro, and bus stop. The rest of the hostel was a joke. The male staff member was very strange. We would come back at night to find him passed out and snoring with an empty bottle of wine next to him. Once, he didn't answer the doorbell to let us in!! Another hostel goer had to open up for us! On top of that, our private bathroom reeked like spoiled salami to the point we couldn't open the door.

The staff is very good and always available to help you. It is not so far from Termini but it is not so closer... There is no internet in the room (only in the Lobby) and in the Lobby there is no much space to stay and access the internet. The breakfast is just about a voucher to have a coffee and bread in a bar close to the hostel, but it seems to be a practice there in Rome.

I stayed in this hostel for 3 nights from Sept 1 to Sept 3. The hostel is pretty close to station (10 mins walk from Roma termini)and at a good location. The receptionist were very helpful and freely changed my room to AC from initially booked one without charging extra. Only downside to this hostel was the cleanliness of the toilet. When the toilet is visited after roaming in the day, there is a smell. But we were helped in this regard by the room spray given.

This is a hotel not a hostel. Friendly staff although very unorganized as they did not have our booking when we arrived.. The room we stayed in was in the middle of renovations. Not that clean. In terms of tourist information help that had nothing and offered nothing. Breakfast was average. a coffee and pastry down the road at a cafe. In terms of location if a single female is traveling on her own, the surrounding streets seemed intimidating a night time.

It was actually like a hotel..Really nice rooms,big enough, with balcony and ecxellent view!! The room was cleaned every day(sth that i haven't seen in other hostels) and it had 24h reception. Just a 10 minute walk from stazione termini.The most impressive thing was the bathroom,so big, clean and artistic!!! I would definately stay there in my next visit to Rome.
