The price 40 Euro for a bed in a dorm is insane. I found couple private suite close by for the same price

Close to a nice public beach and easy transportation to Roma airport.

If you can find it good luck. The area around is dirty and footpaths can be dangerous if you don't watch your step. Cigarette leftovers are everywhere.

Location is great and just across the beach. Short walk to small businesses. Loved sea view from my room 303.

The entrance is behind the building and is therefore difficult to access.

The room was really huge.

Old hostel and it's good to always be prepared and take care of your belongings. There's no way someone is always snoring.

excellent location near to the beach, restaurants and train station.

The guy at the reception was kindly welcoming me but he spoke loudly all night over the phone which disturbed me a nit while sleeping but he is a helicopter person anyways

Location and easy check in

The beach side however didn't have time to enjoy it. Arshin staff member was great!!

I booked a room with a double-door-type view of the sea, hoping to work with a nice view, but was put in a room with a window where I had to stand up to see out of it (so worked with a view of the wall).

The staff are nice. The hotel is in a good location, where you can sea and hear the sea, which is walking distance from good food from Pizza in Piazza and Zaza Kebab, good coffee at l'Angolo del Caffe, nice beer at Beerocracy and a quieter, greener option for caffeine/alcohol at Kimos.

The navigation took us the the other side of the building. We had to ask for direction.

Very nice staff, they helped us with everything. You can leave your baggage in the baggage room after check out. Everything was clean. Big kitchen in the ground floor, where is coffee machine. Simple, but clean. We stayed only one night and were satisfied. Close to the city center.

There is no locker :(

It’s a perfect location however not much comfortable. But worth the price.

A bit scary surroundings of the facility, empty buildings. Clean but dingy.

Look like from a Wes Anderson movie.

Stayed in February 2024

The beds are too close, looks like together. No privacy to sleep with someone so close like that There are taxes which is not mentioned before, 3,50 euros per day .

Clean and close to the bus stop or 20min walking to the train to Rome (30 min far from Rome)

Showers and bathroom was decent. Good customer service

Decent priced. You get what you pay for. Shower and bathroom where clean and shower temperature was good. It's an old building and probably listed as a historical building hence building work must be approached with care. Needs some investment with prices kept the same. Has great potential

Location is far away what it describe. Seaview but nothing related to this

Nothing

Hidden fees upon arrival that have to be paid in cash. Extra pay for towel + make the bed yourself, for an hostel this expensive it was surprising. Also too many people in one room with only 1 key to share, which resulted in keeping that one key on the door at all times. So no safety since lockers inside the room also have no locks or possibly to add lock.

Bed and pillow were comfortable.

An interesting bullying. German soldiers stayed in the buildings from 1943 to 1950. Later it was used for poor Italien families. It looks alike a huge hostel in Spain. One l have stayed on. Where that luxury doesn't count. It would cost one year of Romes budget to fix it. And make a five star hotel.It is huge. Italys people is poor. Nice people. I am poor too. But not that poor. Pizza. Italian food is good when it has not been cooked by Italiens. But they are a lot more healthy. We ad more cheese, oil, meat etc. Italy. I have been to Italy many times. 20 times. So it can't be that bad? But the hostel. 7 is to low. 8 is too much. But the staff was friendly. An experience. I liked the experience.

It's overpriced. I payed 27.5 Euro per night (tax included) for a place that wasn't worth more than 18 in low season (I was there in November). About the price, notice that it's better to book last minute because the price will plummet and there are very few customers out of season. In fact, what you get is just the bed and nothing else - no towels, no free coffee or tea, no proper cafe - nothing. In addition, Ostia is virtually dead in the winter and the area around isn't exactly a heaven. Right behind the hostel but in the same complex (that is the entrance from via Paolo Toscanelli) is a bidonville full of sinister figures - one of them, the sentinel near the door, made me understand I wasn't welcome so I immediately took the exit. Always get in from via Cozza. Apropos, NEVER leave the car nearby: several people have had their belongings stolen. There are druggies are all around. Make sure you arrange your parking with the personnel, particularly the experienced ones working at the reception in the morning.

The place is quite pleasant, and overall it makes you feel you're going back in time. Many years ago, in fact, that was a colony for children whose families could not afford some sea holidays. The beds are comfortable and the toilets are clean. It's at walking distance from the main station and there are plenty of places where you can buy good food nearby. Finally, it is perfectly located if you're landing or departing from Fiumicino airport. There's a direct bus which costs just 1.30 EUR or something. The seafront isn't memorable, I'm afraid, but it's better than nothing. You can (moderately) enjoy a walk towards the porticciolo, that is the harbour - don't go to the Borghetto dei Pescatori, instead, since there's nothing to see and do.
