Liked: I felt really safe. You need a card to enter and the doors are always closed.I really didn't like the location. It was far from everything and the area was not well-lit. Bad value for my money!

20 October 2009 Alicia would recommend this property

Liked: Make sure you bring a padlock for your locker. No one could tell us where the nightlife in Rome was, and there wasn't much around the hostel but they made up for it with the bar downstairs. Cheap breakfast as well. The rooms were clean and tidy. Good hostel, no complaints.

19 October 2009 Daniella would recommend this property

Liked: Great amenities - the cafe for food - AWESOME happy hour, the laptop rentals, the helpful staff, the location (man if you need to get somewhere early in the morning out of rome, you're stoked). Negative is that it doesn't have THAT much character, the beds are kinda eh, and seriously, it's called bleach, the bathrooms do not constantly need to stink like urine. And you WILL be in a mixed room/bathroom if you say mixed, but it's fun being with the boys and gals.

11 August 2009 Adrian would recommend this property

Liked: Very good atmosphere and character. The streetside bar has very friendly staff and is a great place to meet people. The main weakness of this hostel is the amazingly hot rooms during the night which make it difficult to sleep. A place to go for a good time but not a relaxing one.

Donovan Thorpe

19 July 2009

Liked: For me there were three really bad aspects that have totally outwayed any good things aout the hostel. The six bedroom dorm is an oven and after complaining to four staff I got the feeling that none of them cared and that they were used to the complaint. Basically there are two fans in the room at the bottom bunk level. They do not swivel and they cannot be ajusted to benefit the poor mug on the top bunk. Fans do not work sufficiently when you have the airconditioning units from outside pumping all of their hot used air into the room. It is much coller outside. I had three cold showers during the night and was up at 6am to complain and was told that there was nothing they could do but to come back at 9.30. Another point is that the showers go from hot to freezing cold with no warning and then take ages in some cases to turn back to warm and finally it is an expensive exericse staying at a hostel with no kitchen. I would strongly suggest staying elsewhere as we have stayed at other hostels in Rome that provide much more for your money. ie a kitchen, a room the same temperature as outside or cooler, working showers an finally staff the give two hoots.

Liked: It's a 5 min walk from termini station- stayed in ensuite room- clean, good bunks, but room was stuffy & warm due to no air flow. Met some nice people there and recommend the bar/ cafe downstairs- good breakfasts and specials. Would return!

15 July 2009 Danielle would recommend this property

Liked: The Yellow is conveniently located near Termini Central Station in Rome. Other than that there is a Yellow Bar, in which you can hang out and meet other people. The hostel also has cabins under your bed. Bring a lock and you can protect your belonings. In the room we stayed in, it was not at all necessary, but I can imagine you would want to. You can have internet for free for half an hour each day (for which there are laptops available) and the reception is really cool with super friendly staff.

Disliked: Danielle left no negative feedback.
