This hostel wasn't that bad, but it had its problems. First, you check-in at one place and they tell you that your room is in a building 3 blocks away.... It isn't very well situated but it isn't that bad either (30 mins of walking to the city center). The beds were uncomfortable, it gave my friend sore neck. The... More

We stayed here in August 2009 and August 2010. The staff were friendly and the room was clean although not very modern. You'll have to check in at Hotel Des Artistes and then they'll show you to the hostel which is a 3 minute walk away. It's a great location as there is a metro station just around the corner.... More

This is a very nice hotel for the money we paid. The rooms are ridiculously small but that is to be expected. Within walking distance of the train station and numerous other attractions. I would recommend this hotel to friends - probably wouldn't stay again as I’d prefer to check out what other hotels have to offer in other parts... More

We booked through hostelworld.com and thought we would be staying in a central location near the train station in Roma. However, when we checked in, they said they were out of room in that particular building and tried to have us stay in a building much farther away, down a questionable alley right near an embassy with lots of soldiers...

We stayed here in October 2009 for 3 nights. You have to go to a hotel first that is just a few blocks away from the train station. Then the receptionist takes you another 3 or 4 blocks away to Carlito's way the hostel is more like apartments, in way that there is no reception located in the building, the... More

Had a lovely time staying in Carlito's Way. Decent beds, excellent showers. No AC but a fan. Near Termini station, ok to find, make sure you take a map. Roof terrrace, friendly bar across the road. Supermarket round the corner. Good staff, breakfast vouchers. Luggage storage. All round GOOD. More

Very disappointed with Carlito's Way. I was trying to reserve rooms online using Hostelworld and through a website error that Hostelworld has already acknowledged, reserved rooms for three (instead of two). I called this hotel to cancel immediately and they have insisted on continuing to charge me for that web site error. I am having to dispute it through my... More

This was a great hostel to stay in! It was dirt cheap but very safe and owned by a beautiful hotel (that's where you check in) The rooms were basic, but that's what my travel buddies were aiming for. We spent so much time out in Rome that the basicness of the room was all we needed. REALLY close to... More

Before I found out I was going to have an additional traveller on my trip, I had originally reserved a spot in the hostel portion of Hotel/Hostel des Artistes, which runs Carlito's Way. We ended up reserving a private double with shared bath, which at the time was significantly cheaper than the private ensuite. Upon arrival to a dark and... More
