I stayed in Daniel's Sweet Home B&B for three weeks total while I was in Rome this year, between late May to mid June while I was the visiting on scholarship for my research. I stayed in one room without en suite bathroom and one with en suite. Neither suffered from predictable issues like lack of hot water, mess or lineups-the rooms and bathrooms were always clean and never populated with more than four to a room. There isn't a laundry facility, but there is a laundromat nearby with drop-off and do-it-yourself rates. The rates were reasonable and with it you have use of a shared kitchen-this helped me save considerable coin on food expenses. There is a large grocery store no more than six minutes away on foot and pastries, cheese, bread, etc. within two to three blocks. Great and (less) expensive dining than what you would pay in most neighborhoods in the city can be found in Trastevere, which is an easy walk down the river. The rest of the city is easily accessed from either the bus or train or walking-bus and train can be reached across the street. This is a quieter hostel than the ones downtown, which was perfect for me, as I was staying for more than a night. The owner was very considerate and fluent in a variety of languages, which made it simple for booking. Remember to call before you show up, so you don't have to wait on the street for too long, while the owner. The hostel is located directly across from the train station-look for a post-it with a phone number on the buzzer box by the gate-there are pay phones in the train station that you can use.
When I return to Rome, I will certainly return to this hostel without hesitation.
