It’s very decent for the price. Super clean, in a great area (walking distance to Roma terminal) and plenty of restaurants. Also you can walk to main attractions from there as well and if you get tired there’s always the metro nearby. Super easy.

Nina was the best. Clean rooms, comfortable beds, nice quiet environment. Surrounding area looks a bit sketchy at night but just take normal precaution. No towel, you have to pay extra seemed not good. I would recommend.

This hostel was perfect for our family's needs. They let us book a whole room for ourselves since we had 6 people. The staff was friendly and very helpful. Would highly recommend for any travelers. Don't be fooled by the outside neighborhood. It was safe and we walked just fine to and from the metro and train station with our children.

Good overall no real complaints. Bed was a big broken on one side with a loud popping sound on left side but not that big of a deal. Some guy when I first checked in was a bit disrespectful when I was confused about something, that was a bit off putting but overall a good stay in my books.
