6.6Verified guest“Stayed over Easter and was surprised by the low price. The location is very handy – just a 15-minute walk from Termini. Staff were friendly and helpful. My room was spotless, and the shared bathroom was clean too. No breakfast, but there's a kitchen to cook in. Despite being tired, I slept well since traffic noise was minimal. Great value for money.”

The communal dinners created a relaxed vibe. Rooms were always cleaned well, and beds were comfy. Free breakfast and dinner saved me money. Had a fantastic time and met lovely people.”
6.6Verified guest“Wonderful stay at this budget hostel in a great spot. Staff were friendly and helpful. It's near the Underground and within walking distance of sights like the Colosseum. Plenty of restaurants and a supermarket nearby. Shared facilities include two toilets and a kitchen. The dorms were spacious and comfortable – perfect for families at €25 per person. The community feel, with communal dinners and breakfast, saved money and helped me make friends.”
