kellie standing.. the hostel is in a great location and very easy to find .. its clean and the majority of people who work there are friendly however there seems to be alot of maitenance needed to get it to a useable state! the rooms were bright and colourful beds made each day and the common areas were tidy BUT the bathrooms left alot to be desired!! during the 3 days i stayed there were just 2 showers working in the whole hostel... and even then only 1 of them was really useable as the other had clogged drains and filthy smell when u walked pasted the door.. the toilets dont flush properly and you can imagine the ques to use the bathrooms!! the staff tried to pretend it wasnt a problem however you can imagine the guests werent so happy... i think for the price you can find better places in the same area especially if you are after a twin room rather then a dorm |

Customer reviewThe position is great! In short time I could visit all the most important points of interest just by walking, also thanks to the detailed informations and map given to me by the staff. They're kind and very helpful! My room was nice and clean, had lockers for luggages and bed was comfortable. There are several bathrooms in different floors to use, so fortunately the situation wasn't as i read in some comment, maybbe they fixed it. I felt safe and comfortable here, everything was great, especially the breakfast available all day, since i had to leave 6 am, i was very happy to know the place for breakfast was already open. Really recommended! |

Customer reviewLocation is good but poor value for money - 80EUR for twin room with shared bathroom, we have certainly had MUCH BETTER places. |

Customer reviewThe hostel is very convenient (right next to Termini) but that means that it's very loud at night! Also not many bathrooms, no internet on site. And our electricity failed one morning!! However, good breakfast at a cafe on the street below. |

Customer reviewWe had a great stay at Pop Inn. The hostel was clean and the rooms were modern and nicely presented. The location isn't the best, but we walked almost everywhere and it wasn't a problem for us. If you don't like walking, the hostel is right next to Termini Station so you can get the metro really easily. It was quite noisy at night, and you get a few dodgy characters in the area round the station, but we had no problems. Really good location if you are flying into Ciampino, as the airport bus drops you on the same street as the hostel! |

Customer reviewVery entertaining staff, very affordable. Bathroom cleanliness left rather a lot to be desired, however the dorms were decent, if a little cramped. Attracts a young, friendly crowd so great for meeting people to go out with. Rooms overlooking the station get a fair bit of noise, but as expected. |

Customer reviewThe staff were friendly and cheerful, and they seemed very knowledgeable about where to party/drink until early morning. We were given bad advice about when to visit the Vatican, which thankfully we did not follow. The storage places for your bags on the day you leave are just shelves, which are only partially visible from the front desk, however we still used them and there was no problem. Pop Inn is a good, but not amazing, hostel and is perhaps better for the younger party crowd. |

Anthony Olivierigood but didnt have an eftpos facility and when guests arrive late at night like we did at 1140pm we had to go down to the train station to withdraw a 100 euro, not a safe thing to do late at night! |

Bruno SilvaThis is a cool hostel right in front of Termini - the main metro station in Rome. It's literally a 15m walk to the door of the station, which is great because from there you can go anywhere, but not so great if your bed is located on that side of the building - the noise at night is really loud. However, that's not a big problem for me, in general. The staff was GREAT, really friendly and helpful, they offer breakfast somewhere close (although I haven't tried it), and 30min of free internet in two places close to the hostel. I thought the lockers were a little bit smaller than the average locker (it didn't fit the bad I usually bring with me to hostels), and neither the locker on the room nor the "safest" one, by the reception, fit my own lock - so I had to buy two locks from them. I don't think they do it on purpose, of course, but be advised to bring a lock that's not big, and that maybe you'll have to leave your luggage outside a locker in the room. Overall, however, I think the safety was great. The price was great, they don't have a curfew (you can go out and come back anytime you want), etc. Unfortunately for my first 2 nights there, people in my room were basically going there just to sleep, so I couldn't say it was a great place to meet people. I did meet two nice guys on my last night, however, so I guess it depends on how lucky you are. Overall I think this is a great place to stay, and I would recommend it to friends, and would definitely go back. Ah, and as I said, great staff! |

Ophelia Martinezmany thanks to babylin for being so helpful and accommodating! will certainly recommend this place.. very near the termini station, and our room, although small, was eye-catching. we requested for an additional room when we checked in with a private bath, and babylin did her best to accommodate our request. also, the restaurants around are plenty. and they have discount cards to most of the eating places. it's a fun place! |

Customer reviewReally close to the main train station. It makes things really easier in big citties like Rome. There are two tube lines that you can reach most of the turistics places. And you can be sure that wont get lost back to the hostel! |
