    One blanket only on the bed is a bit cold for winter stay. The other guests kept the window open, saying the room was too hot, which didn't help.

    Excellent location. 20 min walk from Plaza de España where the airport bus stops. Many tapas bars, supermarkets, and takeaways are around the corner, yet it is quiet. A few minutes walk to the metro station. Within half an hour walk to many tourist attractions and the sea. The bed is comfortable. Free breakfast and all-day hot drinks. Organised activities in the evenings, though I didn't join. Staff is kind and friendly.

    It is a good hotel given the high cost of accommodation in Rome. The male staff was especially friendly and breakfast was perfect.

    It would’ve been a really nice day if not on one of the night the receptionist brought a new tenant at 11 o’clock and was speaking in really loud voice it would’ve been nice if she could’ve have minded the noise level for people wanting to sleep and on a convenient basis, it would’ve been nice for them to have washers?

    Nice location, welcoming staff, and it was nice to have blinds for privacy

    Cleaning of bathrooms is not bad but it’s not great either, some hair was stuck on the shower door a few days in a row. Also the shower turns off almost every 10 seconds (due to drought in the area), so it’s really hard even to put soap on yourself before the water shuts down again. I understand needing to limit the water but I think 10 seconds is insane, should be at least a minute or 30 seconds as a bare minimum, it’s impossible to wash hair. Also would be great to have a little shelf on the bathroom wall opposite the shower, not just the hooks (to put your telephone, etc)

    Cosy rooms, curtains on beds give privacy, locking drawers, lamps and little shelves above each bed, AC keeping the room fresh, free breakfast, tea/coffee with different types of milk, kitchen, laundry room, little courtyard, friendly and welcoming staff always at reception, nice location

    The sound insulation is not good. We heard the noise in the room if someone’s talking outside the room or using toilet

    The bed is comfortable and the staffs are hospitable and friendly. The location is also good, easy to get to the main attractions.

    Everything great but requires some renovation

    The facilities look old and could use some renovation, the beds in the room I stayed in were metal and produced noise easily. On the side note, people I stayed with in the room constantly opened the balcony for the night and the placement of my bed made the cold air from outside flow despite having the bed curtain shut, so I caught a cold, luckily only on the last day of my stay.

    Very helpful staff, especially Abraham from the reception. The number of bathrooms is enough, hairdryer available, small breakfast and tea/coffee available in the morning, you can rent lockers to the storage space under the bed and towels. The localisation is great, with metro station nearby and relatively close to the beach and attractions.

    Metal frame of the bunk beds very loud, storage locker is underneath the beds this would be useful having these separate as they are very loud opening and closing and can disturb others. Room can be very hot at times and we had a little door you could open for fresh air, only issue with this is neighbours are noisy at night think. Better solution like a fan or air on would be useful as it was only May can’t imagine the heat in the summer.

    Location of the property was great, near lots of public transport making it easy to go sightseeing Was a quiet hostel my room wasn’t filled only had four other girls in which was great. Free WiFi works amazing from room three and staff were lovely giving recommendations and felt safe at all times there. Great as a female solo traveller.

    If you are in one of the bunks close to the door, it's a little tight when people are coming in and out and you're using your storage drawer. It was also pretty warm in our room overnight (we stayed in early May) and we couldn't agree on keeping the balcony door open because of the noise from the neighbors. A small tower fan might solve this?

    Conveniently located near the bus line and the metro, with plenty of affordable restaurants, bars, and grocery stores nearby. Rooms were very clean and the common area was comfortable and had a fun look. The free breakfast was a nice surprise as well. The staff was great, very friendly and helpful. My towel blew off the drying line outside and the staff washed it for me and loaned me a towel for free while it dried.

    The lockers are underneath the bed and make quite some noise when opening so it is a bit disturbing.

    They had some free things for breakfast from 7.30 - 10.30, also it was really nice that there were curtains in front of the bed!! There were many bathrooms and a nice kitchen:) The place is reachable by foot from the city center and also easily accessible by metro.
