I'll make this short and sweet. This place pretty much ruined my very short trip to Rome. We had two days to see everything, and when we showed up to check in, there was no sign, not even a buzzer to indicate that we were in the right place. We had to ask an old guy standing on the street if we were in the right place. We followed him down the street and after a few minutes of yelling at someone who stuck their head out the window, someone showed up to show us to our room. We followed him back to where we were, and he proceeded to kick a group of about 5 angry people out of our room while we stood there. We waited while they argued for a while, but eventually decided that if we were going to see any sites, we needed to leave, so we carried our bags all over the city. When we came back the room was at least clean, but I feared for my safety. I've showered in some weird places, but this one takes the cake. I felt like someone was watching me the whole time, and when I left, I still wasn't sure the place was legit. I've been to Rome since then, and you can find some fine hostels. Definitely avoid this one.
