Really friendly staff and location is far out but very good public transport links. Facilities are ok, kitchen and enough bathrooms. Worth pointing out that there are no curtains to cover beds and lockers aren’t big enough to store bags, only valuables.

read in the Google reviewe there is bed bugs, I know how to check for them, I didn't see any... and I didn't take any with me when I left, but I did get some itchy bumps on my skin while there? could be something they use to clean the sheets? Seems like a bad trend though, the kitchen is just a stove you have to light with a lighter, it's tiny, Rat birds (pigeons) come inside and sh*t all over the place,floor, the countertop, the table. I think the owner likes them? ok for price in rome though
