We were transferred to Moshi Moshi hostel when we checked in due to water problem in Wow hostel. however, Moshi Moshi's location is even better! just across the road you can reach train station! Really great for us to take Metro to major spots and take early train in the morning! and Maki is really warn and nice. She gave us many suggestion when handed us the Rome map and she even let us store our 2 huge luggage with only little cost for one and half day! really recommend to stay here!

Wow Roma is literaly above everthing. Though we did not stay in the original booked place, the new place was more close to the train station. It is clean and close to everything we needed. Maggie is very friendly and informative. I have no hesitation to recommend it to others.

This hotel was extremely clean and well kept. The breakfast was prefect and we really enjoyed the coffee machine. It was also nice having access to snacks in the refrigerator for the afternoon. Maki is extremely helpful and gave us a lot of good tips for traveling around Rome, namely the Roma Pass. Though it was a shared bathroom, we hardly noticed, as the bathroom was kept extremely clean.

We were sent to other same owner's hostel named Moshi Moshi due to Wow Roma had water problem. This is not the problem ! Host Maki was extremely helpful on our delayed lugguage caused by airline. Her trip advice was also impressed. Excellent location as the hostel was very near termini, however, it's drawback was noisy at night time from lots of street guys hang out at the termini. Rooms in the other side must be better.

The room was spacious and quiet. The location is an easy walk from Termini station, right next door to the National museum. Our host was extremely helpful in getting us a cab to the airport and personally seeing us off at 3:00AM

We were moved to the owners other hostel when we arrived as there was a water problem and it was quick and easy. The room we were given was very cute and clean. We were given a mobile phone to ring Maki if we had any problems while we were out and the wifi was free and worked well. Breakfast in the morning was fairly good, nowhere to sit and eat though. Only problem was the shower - nowhere near warm enough and you had to sit down in the bath to use it. Overall, we enjoyed staying at Wow Roma!

Very close to Tremini Station, so convenient access to trains, and both Metro lines. The staff were lovely! As we had told them our arrival time, they had someone waiting (usually no reception). We were given our own keys, city map (+ advice), and a cell phone in case we needed to reach them or make local calls! Towels, hairdryers, and laptop provided. And of course, 24 hours breakfast buffet is wonderful! Would highly reccommend for quiet and pleasant stay in Rome.

The hostel was average. Just average. The people who managed the hostel were nice enough but entirely unprofessional. The availability of the staff was erratic and undependable. They also were foreign to Rome and could provide few suggestions of things to see or restaurants to dine in. The hostel is CASH ONLY which is inconvenient, and the staff does not carry change for larger bills. They expect you to accept an "I owe you", and ask you to leave them with your passport.

The hotel was superbly located and the staff was really friendly and helpful. We just wish we'd been able to pay for our balance with our credit cards. Apparently the owner had trouble with the bank. that's what he said. It gave us the impression that he just needed the cash and had no machine to processes cards at all. It's not technically a hotel but a remodelled apartment, so I guess it's understandable; but the website should clarify that you can't pay by credit card there.

Excellent place to stay! My friend and I had a great time. The owner, Maki, is so helpful. She lent us a cellphone in case we have questions during our stay. There's also an all-day breakfast table.
