Got a great price and the photos looked good. We got a free upgrade from a room with shared bathroom to another with a private bathroom, without having to pay anything extra! The breakfast is included in the price in the café nearby, just ask for the slips of paper. (Café/cappuccino and a variety of croissants) Also make sure to... More

The lobby of the hostel was an internet cafe/laundromat. It seemed a little shady especially when they ask for all cash up front, but not to fear, the business is legit! We had a large group of 8 people, and the employees were really helpful with moving our bags up to our room and letting us check in early. Instead... More

BEWARE! BEDBUGS! We laughed out loud when we finally found the "office" to Funny Palace as it was in a shady looking laundry mat. I was willing to overlook this considering the 5star reviews I kept reading about. However the receptionist (if you could call him that) Johnny caught us off guard when he said they only accepted cash... although... More

Location is very near the train station, so the neighborhood isn't the nicest to walk in at night (I stepped around more than one pile of vomit), but great for getting to an early morning train. The room was shabby, but it seemed like they tried their best to keep them clean. To be honest, it was the vibe of... More

Hard to find & may feel a bit misleading, you arrive & check in in at a laundry mat, but hostel is amazing! Laundry mat is also where you can access internet, they have set of desks & computers. Also there's wifi access in rooms. They offer breakfast coupons for coffee or juice & croissant (or pastry of equal value)... More

I really enjoyed coming here. I didn't pay much and felt like I got my money's worth. The staff helped us organize an easy itinerary to see all of Rome within two days and the main train station is less than a 5 minute walk from the hostel. The directions will lead you to the internet cafe and from there... More

Because I had booked so many hostels I thought this was a female dorm. After checking in I changed in my room and then a guy walked into the room and I asked him what he was doing in the female dorm and he said he worked there. He should have told me then it wasn´t a female dorm but... More

I actually enjoyed staying here, but I feel like there is a lot of misinformation about this place on the internet... first off, calling it a hostel is a bit of a stretch. They have a bunch of apartments in the blocks around an internet point and laundromat. I saw two rooms as I was asked to change for one... More

The hostel is located near the Termini Station- from the airport you can catch a bus which takes you straight to the station and it is only a 5 minute walk. The Hostel is not well signposted as the reception is located in a laundry mat, and it seems like random people are checking you in. However, their knowledge of... More

I stayed one night in 5 beds dorm in this hostel because I have to catch the flight early in the morning. You can take the shuttle bus in front of the train station to CIAMPINO airport. The bed is not bunk bed!! Great location, nearby the train station. You will be given coupon for breakfast and 1 red wine... More
