Very charming place in the heart of trastervere. I ll definetely book this hostel if I come back one day. Staff is very helpful, everything is clean. Even if it is not closed to a metro station, it is the perfect spot for me. Nice view at day time see the pics.

Liked: Cleanliness
The entrance passcode provided in the email was incorrect. Had to wait at the front gate for 5-10 min and called a couple times before someone finally picked up the phone and gave me the correct code to enter. They have charged my credit card before my arrival and I wasn’t given the option to pay by cash. The lock of the front gate was malfunction on my 3rd day of stay hence people couldn’t go out and were stuck inside for 15 minutes. The room I stayed was next to the stairs and there were door closing noises throughout the night. Overall a clean and safe place for backpack travellers.

Quiet, air conditioned and central

Stayed one night, loved that it was central to so many good places to see in Rome! Easy to find, easy to walk from, around the corner was the best small restaurants. Felt super safe as a solo female traveler. FYI- bring your own towel and small (skinny) lock. My normal storage lock was too big.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service
Our room was big with tall ceiling height, but this being a hostel meant that everything was quite basic, no fridge, and no shampoo or shower gel. The drawer by the bed was also broken, and the room is next to a highly trafficked road. On the positive side, the location is very good, with waking distance to all the sight we wanted to see. Overall, an okay stay for the price.

Nice place in a great neighborhood. We had a big private room. I didn't rate 5 stars because the pipes would knock very loudly at night when guests in a nearby room would run their faucet. Even so, I would stay here again.

Première fois pour moi en dortoir, j'ai pu connaître d'autres personnes et échanger, Par contre pour les douches communes, propres le matin mais après le passage de certaines, déchets multiples, il manque un distributeur de papier pour s'essuyer les mains ainsi il n'y aurait pas de morceaux de papier wc un peu partout sur le sol.
