bom na medida do possivel
Bem limpo, localização até boa ( 1,5 km caminhando até fontana...1,7 até coliseu ) quarto tamanho médio, banheiro bem simples, instalações no geral antigas.se tiver procurando algo mais novo e aconchegante aconselho desembolsar um pouco mais
El personal súper amable!
La habitación grande y cómoda.
El lugar no es nada elegante pero es práctico, te atienden súper, y cuenta con todo lo necesario.
Esta muy cerca de la estación de tren y todo tipo de transportes, es muy conveniente, aunque la zona no es realmente muy linda, y sobre todo en la noche se pone bastante desierto.
Fomos muito bem recepcionados pelo Staff do hotel que sempre foi gentil e solícito conosco. O quarto e banheiro estavam limpos. O hotel é bem localizado próximo a estação Termini e outras estações do metro.

Not bad!
It is not a hotel..it is a hostel...it has not been mentioned in the booking page...we had our room with private bathelroom but the room was in the same hallway asthe guest room!
The breakfast was very disappointing and Free local cuisine breakfast was a lie! I attached the breakfast picture....the staff was very good...
Läget var bra och personalen ok men resten ... De tog inte emot kort betalning. Rumsdörren var lövtunn med en flera centimeter springa, med andra ord otroligt lyhört. Kontakterna i rummet gick knappt att använda till att ladda telefonen, fick hålla kontakten helt stilla så gick det, glappt. Badrummet ville vi knappt gå in i, lortigt och super låg standard, galon lock och ring!!! Sämsta hotellet vi bott på i Rom och för det betalade vi €90. Hotells.com borde inte ha sådana hotell på sin sida.

struttura molto semplice ma posizione ottima; ottimo rapporto qualità-prezzo; personale molto cortese
Chambre très simple, équipement très succinct. Il suffirait de rajouter une chaise ou deux pour pouvoir poser ses vêtements, un porte manteau derrière la porte et une étagère dans la salle de bain. Une des prises de courant était arrachée du mur. Juste pour dormir quelques jours c'était suffisant. Les points positifs: la localisation (proche de la gare de Termini mais un peu bruyant) et la qualité de l'accueil.
It was in the middle of Rome cententral 6 mns walk from the train station. Really nice rooms very safe very friendly staff would definitely recommend people to stay there
Es más bien un hostal en la primera planta de un edificio,quienes lo regentan son muy amables e intentan ayudarte en todo.La habitación es muy sencilla pero limpia con aire acondicionado y camas cómodas, muy cerca de bares y a unos 15min caminando del coliseo como mucho.
Desayuno muy sencillo.
The stuff is very frinendly, that is very hard to find in Italy.

Different location
The receptionist was nice, but we had some issues. We did not stay where the property is listed. Our room was in another B&B 10 minutes away from the original place. Although it was a wide room recently refurbished, it stank cigarette. Even if the ad said breakfast was included, there was no breakfast. When we got in touch with hotels.com, we received an answer straight away.
À la réception, ils sont assez accueillant. Mais ça ne comble pas, le manque excessif d’hygiène de la chambre et de la salle de bain. Les murs sont remplis de taches, le sol est sale. L’armoire pour ranger les affaires est en dans un état critique. Pour l’eau lors de la douche, il fallait atteindre au moins 10min pour qu’elle se chauffe. Le prix est très attirant mais la qualité est vraiment penible. Et le petit déjeuner est très restreint.

Friend House, Rome Italy
We were forced to find a last minute place to stay for a night. This hostal was right in the area we needed and I booked online. The staff were very belpful, even able to find our traveling friends a night at another location.
A basic breakfast was also provided.
