Liked: The location is just great. Close by the Termini Station from where you can go to anywere. It's also really clean and the showers are always hot, i don´t understand why i read, before i, go so many rates who said that the watter was cold :S!!! NOT TRUE AT ALL!!! Last thing, pay attention to your things in the metro because my wallet was stolen. Beside that Rome is secure and LOVELY :D!!! Thanks...

20 January 2010 Jay would recommend this property

Liked: Great place. Free pasta dinner at night and free breakfast in the morning. Great place to meet people if you want to. The other Alessandro location has a bar attached to it as well and is about a 20 minute walk away. Room was clean and nice. Showers were also nice. Location was ok, close to subway & bus at Termini station. Staff was super friendly. No locked storage outside the room if you are leaving your luggage before/after checkout, but we had no problems with our stuff while it was in their luggage room. Also bring your own lock for lockers in the rooms.

Liked: The free pasta at night was a great little bonus (although they should do the same in the weekend!). They close the common room at midnight so you´re left with nowhere to socialise or drink beer with other guests unless you head out (which I don´t suggest doing - it´s a pretty seedy part of town!).

Liked: Big, lots of people. The only bad thing was two out of the three nights there, we had no hot water on our floor. And also the heater in our room wasn't working (which wasn't a big deal since it wasn't too cold, but it was winter)

Patrick Sullivan

06 December 2009 Patrick would recommend this property

Liked: Showers were good for me. Location is fantastic being close to the Termini train station and not a long walk to several big sites. Breakfast was free, so I can't complain much, rolls were better than typical white bread. Plenty of common room space and affordable internet prices. Enjoyed my stay here.

Johann Renner

01 December 2009 Johann would recommend this property

Liked: This is a really nice place to meet people and is really well located. The bad things: two commons bathrooms (male and female separated) so they are not that clean, limited internet access, limited availability of outlets in the rooms (really useful to charge the batteries of your gadgets). I didn't know they have fridges available to put your own food and the kitchen is open too. You can visit Alessandro Palace; they have free pizza there! (instead of free pasta)

Customer review

21 November 2009

Liked: I would not recommend ppl this, it just over crowded, where ever you go just too much ppl. It is like a hell during the night. that time was about early September, the room is just too hot at night, can not sleep properly, sweating thru out the night. no air con, too hot, 1 ceiling fan is not sufficient for the room with 8 or more beds. Tried to open the window, but not much help to cool down the room. and it is located in a street where constantly car are moving around and it just too noisy thru out the night. I am serious this is the worst hostel I stayed so far. Will avoid this kind of hostel in the future.
