Liked: Nice people working there (Marwa and Dasha are awesome!). Clean rooms and excellent environment. Very close to the Termini. I want to come back there one day! It was the best hostel I've stayed in Italy!
Disliked: Everything was perfect!

Liked: The perfect hostel in terms of : Clean, safe, good location, helpfull staff, etc.
Disliked: Only two things that were not so good. - you have to pay an additional 2 euro per person per night which is rome tourist city tax I believe this is true (amsterdam where I lived has something similar) but it wasn't communicated that it was not included in the price wich i didn't found proper...- also, there is for the entire hostel (4 rooms for 3 persons so 12 visitors) only one bathroom (toilet and schower), which is okay if they are seperated, but now you couldn't go to the toilet when someone was using the shower :s. The rest of the hostel was nice, clean, friendly, we got good advice, etc. Thus besides the two downers it was the perfect place to stay.

The property's response is
Thank you dear guest for your review, it was a great pleasure to have you among us at La Controra Hostel. We just want to clarify two things : 1-the City tax: it is actually mentioned on hostelbookers (please see Accommodation Information) it is so obvious. 2- The fact that we have only one bathroom for the entire hostel is absolutely not true and you can check that on hostelbookers as well, because all our rooms have a private bathroom except the one that you booked it has a shared bathroom.

Liked: It was really well located a short walk from the main station, near a tube station and walking distance to all the main attractions. The hostel was very clean throughout. We had a four bed dorm that was spacious and clean with its own bathroom (really nice hot showers). The main office and bigger dorms were two floors up so kept private but still accessible. we enjoyed free internet and watched a movie in the evening. All up a very good hostel with a well deserved reputation.
Disliked: Honestly if I was really looking for something I would say the pillows. They were rather lumpy and thin and they could do with getting some new ones. Also a larger sign at the door of the hostel as we did walk past it the first time. Basically if you are coming from termini and hit the back of the american embassy (big gated building) you have gone too far. It's really easy once you know where it is.
