Liked: ASIA room is big enough so my friend and I had enough space :) the bathroom was clean, and i am happy for this. the location is just perfect coz it is near metro bologna, which is 3 stops to go to termini. it needs about 30 minutes by walking to go to termini if you decide to walk (this is based on my own experience) it is near a supermarket.

Disliked: the wifi connection was in trouble during my stay, probably those were not my lucky days..but the rest was OK! OH! they also need to repair the lock for the ASIA door, and check regularly the conditions of all the properties they have :)

Liked: There was a big room where was the kitchen, reception, computers, tables... So was good to stay talking while something was in the microwaves or while we were at the computer... The staffs were always ready to help and the reception was 24h open! The hostel is very close to the Metro station, so it makes easy to go to the historic center. The bathroom and toiletes were clean! Good hostel!

Disliked: one locker in my group was broken!

Liked: walking distance to underground but I wish it ran later. Had computers to use for free. Met a lot of people in the common area.

Disliked: The underground closed by 11:30 so it was hard to go out and there weren't many bars around it. I think I saw one bar/restaurant. The wiifii was iffy

Liked: Really close to the metro station, fast wireless connection, didn't charge us the tourist tax in Rome (2 euros a night)- don't know if this was just an oversight though, generally clean, free lockers.

Disliked: Wasn't particularly friendly. We wanted to check out a night early and the staff weren't very helpful. Neither me or my boyfriend really liked this hostel, but it's hard to say why. There are better hostels out there.

Liked: The rooms were spatious and clean and the beds and lockers were ok. The free internet is also good. The price is ok. If you want a cheap hostel this can be your choice. It's not so close to the center but from Termini and other places you have buses during the night.

Disliked: The hostel is mainly a bunch of 5 or 6 rooms with 6-8 beds with a reception and some kind of common room. The in-room toilet+shower is not so good. It's very small and it can be always full. There's only one common toilet+shower outside for all rooms. The in-room toilet happens to be many times busy and not clean, because after some shower it becomes totally wet and, without any window or so, it never gets dry. It's can also be very noisy for the room. The facilities in the hostel doesn't help much for interaction between people so it's not so much good in that sense.

Liked: Most of the staff were friendly and helpful.

Disliked: Bathrooms were smelly. The beds did by have any support and sank in the middle. Matresses were not comfortable. My friend got badly bitten by bed bugs. We were playing cards in the common room at 1am with some other backpackers we met and they turned all the lights off so the guy on the supposed 24 hour reception could sleep.

Liked: There is a supermarket around the corner. It is expensive though. The rooms are clean and some people from the staff are friendly.

Disliked: Wifi is not good. There is no oven to cook. The hostel is not at the center fo Rome but it is quite close to the metro station, so it is ok.

Liked: To be honest the only thing i liked about this property was the fact they had nice vending machines in the lobby and that the internet was free. that's it...

Disliked: the staff is amazingly incompetent, i went in at night and then went outside to have a cigarette. when i went back the guy looks at me like i'm the ghost of christmas passt, or maybe some robber. the beds were the squeaquiest i have seen in my life. i actually felt sorry for the girl sleeping under me, because i had to climb up and then adjust myself to sleep. i'm glad i only had a reservation for one night because otherwise i would have cancelled and looked for somewhere else to sleep in.

Liked: good location as it is close to a metro station

Disliked: the wifi dropped out frequently. The fridge wasn't very cold and it was dirty. the staff were not very helpful at times and the air conditioner n the rooms didn't work so it was so hot at night the bathrooms smelt of mould and mildew but I guess it's good enough to sleep and wash if that's all you wamt from your stay not very easy to meet travelers or socialise

Liked: Hot showers with strong water pressure. Power and outlets and lights beside each bed. Communal toilet/shower and toilet/shower in each room. There was air-con but it wasn't very cool.

Disliked: At the time there were no maps available. Beds weren't great, a little uncomfortable and noisy. Internet dropped out occasionally. Kitchen facilities are just a microwave, sink and fridge.
