Liked: It was clean and secure.
Disliked: The staff are extremely unfriendly and unhelpful. The breakfast is so bad it is almost offensive. There is nothing to do through the hostel - no events, etc. for young people and it is virtually impossible to meet other travellers outside of your dorm here. The hostel is also in a sketchy area near Termini. On the other side of Termini, we saw so many better hostels at similar prices. I don't recommend this hostel if you're young, looking to go out and meet other travellers at night in Rome.

Liked: FREE PIZZA on one of the nights we were there :) large common areas, friendly staff, promotions of things to do and nights out in Rome.
Disliked: Kitchen area open but not available to use in the evenings. Very expensive for what you actually got ( a bunk bed in a large shared room). breakfast was average at best.

Liked: The staff are quite nice and speak many languagues, the hostel offers great things like free pizza and breakfast and its really close to Termini. The only bad thing is that compared with hostels from around the world, it could offer the same things for less money.
Disliked: My sheets were not very clean.
