10/10 Excellent

Staff are exceptionally friendly and helpful. The lack of an elevator is really the only issue.
Alan, 3-night trip

10/10 Excellent

We loved everything about this property. The owner was wonderful and very welcoming. Our stay was very comfortable.
Melanie, 2-night trip

10/10 Excellent

We greatly enjoyed our stay at Blue Hostel. Alessandro was super nice! He went above and beyond to make sure we had everything we need and was ready to help with any questions and recommendations.
Andrea, 3-night trip

10/10 Excellent

Nice spot in Roma.

Ercole and Alessandro provide great maps and restaurant recommendations. The location is excellent for access to Termini train station and the historical district.
Jeffrey, 1-night trip

10/10 Excellent

It was a great location and friendly staff members
Stanley, 2-night trip

8/10 Good

Malto bene! Host was very kind, location right next to one of the four major basilicas/chuches, don’t skip going inside!
Daniel, 3-night trip

2/10 Terrible

I was on the impression that this was a hotel. Of course for someone that lives in the US and that doesn’t know what a hostel is this place was a disappointment. It is not what is advertised on the website. This is a room in a building with no elevator and my 72 year husband had to climb 3 set of stairs with approximately 20 stairs each. The air conditioner did not work properly and Rome was super hot. I think the description should be more accurate this way people can decide whether they want to stay there or not.
Tammy, 3-night trip

8/10 Good

We had two adjacent rooms which fully met our needs for our 4 night stay and felt welcome and well looked after.
Nigel, 4-night trip

10/10 Excellent

We had a very enjoyable stay with a wonderful host. Will be returning for a couple more nights prior to the end of our vacation.

Value for money

Excellent location! Great staff! Recommend staying here if you are a family of 4 and on a budget.
Aman, 3-night trip

10/10 Excellent

Great 2 day stay

It's not a hostel, more like a family run boutique hotel. It was exactly what we needed for 2 days in Rome. Great recommendations from our host. Comfortable, clean and convenient to Roma Termini. Would stay here again.
Jose, 1-night trip

10/10 Excellent

Great serviced apartment

Had a fantastic stay here. Excellent location. Spacious apartment with everything you need and also serviced every day. Very helpful and kind host. Would highly recommend and would definitely stay again if ever back in Rome
Ian A, 4-night trip

8/10 Good

Nice place but watch out for stairs.

Great location near the Termini train station and a nice place to stay. However, there are 4 flights of stairs so you have to be in shape as it is a climb.
Paul, 6-night trip

8/10 Good

Even with the street address and Google Maps, we could not find this place. We wandered for 20 minutes looking for it. (It's between the Chinese restaurant and the barber shop.) Alessandro to the rescue! I texted him on WhatsApp, and he literally came out onto the street and waved down. He then carried my heavy suitcase up three flights of stairs like it was nothing. He was so kind and friendly. We LOVED the location near Santa Maria Maggiore. Three blocks from Roma Termini and Metro, and we felt so safe through three locked doors. The neighborhood has a grocery store and laundromat within 2 minutes, plus lots of restaurants and gelato close by. Cleaning service came every day and refilled our water bottles. The only downside was the a/c fan never stopped blowing, so we were freezing at night, and there were no extra blankets. (No, turning up the temperature, didn't help. It was the fact that the fan never stopped blowing.)
Amy, 4-night trip

Beautiful building! Walkable distance to colosseum and city center :)
Paulina, 4-night trip

10/10 Excellent

Amazing stay! Our host Alessandro was incredibly friendly, accommodating, and responsive, and helped carry our luggage upstairs. The location is superb with easy access to all the major attractions. We were able to explore the historic sites and charming streets with ease. They provided us with a detailed map that included recommendations for nearby restaurants and cafes. Would definitely stay here again!
Patrick, 5-night trip

10/10 Excellent

Responsive and professional host. Within 10mins walk to Roma Termini and walkable to Colosseo and Trevi Fountain. Spacious and safe room. Highly recommend it!
3-night trip

10/10 Excellent

Very friendly and helpful host. Alessandro welcomed us and helped us bring the luggages up to the 3rd floor as there is no lift in the building. The room is very clean and cozy. Alessandro showed us their own tourist map of Rome, very helpful and useful.
Matthew Man Fa, 5-night trip

10/10 Excellent

The hotel was in a central part of Rome, a nine minute walk from the train station and walking distance to the many of the sites. The hotel staff was friendly and recommended restaurants for us to visit and also gave us advice for how to visit the sites for the least crowded entrances. The room was clean and comfortable. Be prepared to walk up three flights of stairs with luggage though!
1-night trip

10/10 Excellent

Recommended.

Stayed here for 4 nights in a twin room. The room was comfortable. Very clean. Beds made daily and towels changed. Good shower. Location excellent. The host was very friendly and helpful. Would not suit anyone with mobility problems as there are 3 flights of stairs. I would stay here again and I would recommend this property.
nuala, 4-night trip

10/10 Excellent

What a gem. Ercole and Alessandro are wonderful hosts who clearly have a passion for what they do. They provided a map of Rome with locations of all the main attractions plus locations and descriptions of their dining recommendations. A true locals guide to Rome. I went to as many of their spots as I could get to and wow, such treasures. The Blue Hostel is perfectly located close to everything including metro, but just outside of the crowded fray. This was my first trip to Rome, but surely not my last. I know where I’m going to stay for all future visits! Ps the room was charming and gorgeous and clean, with ac and quite a comfortable bed.
