The RomeHello - Hostel
9.6 out of 10, Exceptional, (664)
"I booked a stay in The RomeHello while i was finishing my day trip in Rome so I could sleep before my next stop. The place was really clean, it looked very welcoming, the staff was kind and it's really well located, in walking distance from the main train station. They also have a kitchen with appliances to use and many vending machines as well. Overall, very convenient and had a great experience."

Hostel Trastevere
8.0 out of 10, Very good, (118)
"This was my first time staying in a hostel. Overall I give it 4 stars because it was generally clean and there was AC (I came in August and it’s the hottest month in Italy). I stayed in the 8 person room with boys and girls. Listening to some of my other friends who’ve stayed in many hostel, they pointed out that this hostel wasn’t very sociable. There are common areas for people to mingle, but there are no events or specific meet up times, so it can be clicky. But once the weekend came there...

Palladini Rome
7.0 out of 10, Good, (26)
"This place is absolutely disgusting. It’s falling apart, don’t be fooled by the pictures. The bathroom is a room with a few showers that is shared by the entire floor, it was so dirty, wet and gross that I didn’t even want to step in it. I was placed in a room with other 4 big men and the vibe in the entire place was just shady. At night it was impossible to sleep, you can hear every little thing from the entire property. The bed and pillow are just plain horrible, the “lamp” was just a hanging...

Sentho Roma
10.0 out of 10, Exceptional, (15)
"Lovely little hotel in a great area for bars and restaurants. Very clean, quiet and comfortable. Room was spacious and delightful with balcony overlooking courtyard. Welcome treats were included in the room when we got there. Highlight was the rooftop bar where Ludovika serves up delicious cocktails. Staff always very helpful and friendly. Good coffee pod machine, though didn't always get replenished daily. Breakfast buffet is a bit limited but good for a small hotel with a handful of rooms....

"Clim très bruyante (donc mise en off par moi) parties communes d'accès aux chambres, laissant a désirer... (photos fenêtre sur parking et l'escalier avec sa cascade d'eau!!! ) Petite SdB correcte, malgré le manque d'eau chaude et le peu de pression de la douche... Très belle vue sur le parking clos. "

New Generation Hostel Rome Center
8.2 out of 10, Very good, (79)
"The hostel is okay, if you just want to sleep it is a great option. Kitchen facilities are pretty awful, literally two forks, zero glasses, and nothing to be able to cook. For me the worst issue is by far there are only bathrooms in the rooms. So if you are drinking in the common areas and need to use the restroom, you can only go to your room, and if someone is showering, you might not be able to pee for 30 minutes. Which honestly is pretty awful for a hostel not to have a backup for. Staff...

Hostel Melting Pot Rome
7.4 out of 10, Good, (46)
"Staff at check-in was quite disinterested and did not provide any information about the property or local area. Security is quite poor, door to the room did not lock and no lockers available for personal belongings (apparently this is being renovated). Reception staff offered to store any valuables, but I discovered afterwards that the "safe storage area" was a completely open room where anybody had access. Nonetheless, property was quite clean. Would be a reasonable option for budget travellers...
