    There is no hot or even acceptable warm water in the bathrooms. Apparently the temperature gets turned really low (I guess to save money?). The effect is unbearable cold water. This might still work in the warmer months but we had a couple colder rainy days in mid September. We couldn't even shower those days because it was way too cold and the rest of the days it was also more of "let's get over with this as fast as possible". I asked about the water once and it was turned to a warmer temperature but this took around 20 minutes in total - not suitable for every day to go and ask for warm water if one doesn't want to waste lots of time. And still it was only lukewarm and by far not hot. I checked the reviews afterwards and apparently this seems to be an ongoing issue.

    Room was clean, staff was very friendly. Silent at night. Location was also fine and we were able to walk everywhere.

    Very uncomfortable and short beds. No possibilities for breakfast in the facilities, while being placed in an expensive neighborhood. The common area is not very comfortable for resting. Price is above average for a sort of hostel without many services and suc uncomfortable beds.

    Nice staff members, and quiet rooms not facing the street.

    The bed is a bit short, probably only about 1.9 meters Cell phone signal is very poor and WiFi signal is also very bad The automatic coffee machine downstairs made me a terrible cappuccino with only a little milk.

    There was no breakfast facility except a coffee wending machine being kept for coffee. The funny part is it is available for a few hours in the morning only. That area was not fully clean either. As far as room is concerned, it is fine but the scary part is the Air Condition in the rooms gave a pathetic performance. The brighter part is none of the tourists seriously objected and were more generous in this regard. Toilets have very few facilities and could be improved for the visitors' convenience. If these are taken care of, it is a very good place to stay.

    I liked the rooms [but not the AC], the ambience, the friendly staff and the perfect location of the hotel. I should appreciate the elevator facility too.

    I think a better cleaning level in the room will be greater and more comfortable but it’s ok also in this way for it price

    The price is very low and the position is pretty close to the Termini train station. It has also a bus stop nearby so it is easy to reach other places

    i stayed at the 4th floor and there's always loud banging from the floor above us, even in the middle of the night. acoustics are bad, so you can hear the upstairs people talking when everything is quiet. so, if you're ever staying at the same floor, bring some earplugs cuz you'll need them. the bathroom shower was broken and the toilet bowl has a permanent stain from the water flow that needs to be checked.

    staff were nice. room was spacious. location is convenient and close to a lot of bus stops, even train and metro stations. i had no problem with going back late. they clean the common areas daily which is nice.
