Sunshine Hostel Reviews

this experience has been so far the worst one cos the receptionist was pretty rude and shouting at all the time to us, even though we did no stay there because of this issue the hostel charged us for a really bad service they gave as the day we approached the hostel. when the guy showed us the room he did not allow as to turn on the lights so how he expected us to see properly the place? by the way our flight got delayed so also the guy was angry cos we did not get at 11:00 as we supposed to be

This place was BAD. The manager called me by my last name on check in and when I explained it was my last name she responded "yes, I know, but I don't like your first name!' There were no lockers although it says so under facilitates. The owner told me "not to worry, everyone else leaves their things out". Female showers were a shower curtain between you and the whole bathroom, you had to get dried and dressed in front of others. I wish I walked out of this hostel as soon as I walked in.

They have nothing... no internet, no kitchen, no lockers, no microwave... just a room and a regular bathroom. The good thing? Localization. The price was very high for what they offered... like all hostels in Italy.

Très bonne ambiance, et accueil chaleureux, comme si on arrivait dans une petite famille !

Most important: Arrive before 14:00 or anounce your late arrival to the Hostel. Me and my friend have been arriving late and it was no problem after I got E-Mail confirmation that they excpect us at 18:30. If you don't anounce yourself, the lady from the hostel would not be there: No chance! In general this hostel is very basic. It is hardly more than a flat but a very cosy place. You would not get anything but a bed. No kitchen. No Computer, but there is a nice internet caffe close by.

The member of staff was really rude. It seemed as if he/she were doing me a favour working there! Absolute nonsense! Never seen that kind of attitude. The location is very bad (do not mind the dodginess of the area), it's just very inconvenient. It was clean, though. It was the cheapest option, but there are certainly cheaper and better hostels out there.

very comfortable stay. thanks!

Close to the train station but farther from most attraction. It was a little difficult to find because the numbering on the streets got confusing. Coming from the train station once you get to where you think it should be based on the number just keep walking and it is on the other side of the street. The bed I slept in sagged in the middle from so much wear but after so much walking during the day I still slept like a baby. No kitchen which is unfortunate because it is so expensive to eat out.

Clean and fun hostel with very (very) friendly and kind staff. The lack of lockers in the rooms and limited reception times are the only downsides.

Everything is gorgeous and staff are nice. Just the location is not very convenient. But still not a big problem:)

This hostel was like walking into a horror film. It looks to be decorated by satan's grandmother. The manger there was very short with us and kind of unpleasant. It's called the "Sunshine Hostel" but there is not one inch of sunshine to be seen in the place. I don't really think I've got too high standards for hostels but the dim lighting, strange decorations (a plush tiger watched me as I slept) and poor location made for a depressing stay in Rome.

This place was weird...I don't know how else to put it. It isn't really a hostel, but an apartment they have decided to run as a hostel. It has no sign outside so hard to find, and the staff are only there until 2pm. There is literally NO privacy in the dorm because they bust in at 9:30am to wake up the people who have to check out at 10am and start cleaning the room! One morning I really wasn't feeling well and wanted to sleep in but they woke me up early! Not ok...and barely any hot water.

Frustrating that the staff isn't there after 2.30 PM, so people knock on the door and you aren't sure if you can open it. The owner herself knocked on the door and no one knew what to do because we were told not to open it for anyone. Lots of spare blankets and pillows. A bit of a walk through an empty area, so you do question if you're actually going the right way. About a 20 minute walk from the station, so it's okay but not ideal. No breakfast and no kitchen isn't very ideal either.

The hostel was great, Florinda is great. It would be good to have an area like kitchen or a commong area. That is the only thing which is missing. Everything else is totally great. Especially the price.
