This place has been like a home to me on every trip I've made to Italy in the past 10 years. Yes, there are probably cheaper places to stay. Yes, there are definitely "nicer" places. There might even be places to stay that are just as centrally located. But i have never met a more friendly and accommodating staff. They... More

If you aren't expecting the Hilton, which you should not given the low prices, this is actually a nice dorm-style accommodation. Not the best place I have ever stayed, but there is far worse in Rome.

Stay away from this place! The website is totally misleading... no breakfast and drinks provided, no spaghetti parties, no ice cream events... no one at the front desk during the posted hours... no response if called for an emergency... TV and wifi did not work most of the time... place was cleaner when I left it than when I got... More

I’m a student and stayed in Casa Olmata during an archaeologically excursion. I have seen lots of horrible accommodations these last years but Casa Olmata is beyond every description. Everything you can read here is correct! Including the fact that our group also shared our private area (bath room and kitchen) with a couple, a man and a women, probably... More

I had the best time in Rome thanks to Casa Olmata, where I met amazing people and had the best dinners and parties in the top of the roof!

My partner and I stayed at this hotel for 10 nights, while traveling around Europe for 5 months. I would recommend this hotel to others. The room was decent as it had a comfortable bed, a ceiling fan, mirror, cupboard and enough room for luggage. A few things we weren't happy about was the amount of noise that came from... More

I was in Casa Olmata last week, and the reviews here frightened me a little bit. However, the room where I stayed with my girlfriend was acceptable. Queen bed, clean sheets and nothing in particular negative to declare. I stayed in the main building, in Via D'Olmata, so I don't know if the problem is the other building, but everything... More

There were no working kitchen facilities, not proper curtains over the windows, everything was filthy and smelled!

First, we are a young couple who likes to travel 'round countries. We have visited a lot of hostels on our trips and are not used to high standard. But this hostel was by far the worst we ever stayed. We stood here for three nights. When we first arrived at Casa Olmata, we saw a slim run down house.... More
