Shared bathroom is a problem
There is a 24 hour desk reception even though the reservation says there is no one present after hours. We checked in at 11pm. But no one picks up the phone because the phone is at a different location. There is an elevator to take luggage up to the 5 floor where the hotel is located. The front desk was very nice and accommodating and even provided us with 2 bottles of water. The AC did not work as it is controlled centrally . But it was okay as we left the balcony door open to let in cool air. The only problem was the shared bathroom. There were many people checked into other rooms so it always seemed occupied and it was not clean. I didn’t feel like using the shower as the bathroom was not clean.

Very bad service and room condition
I booked a night to have some rest before I go to airport. The local area is very close to Roma Termini Train station which is good. But there are rubbish and homeless everywhere, bad smell too. The service is very bad, the staff asked my arrival time, I made it clear I will arrive at 2 pm and leave at 8 pm, so I will not stay a night. When i arrived at 2:15 pm, there is no staff here and the elevator service has to request in advance, which is totally unacceptable. the hostel is at 5th floor!! I waited until 3pm to checked in. No towel and no amenities at all......... I called the staff, the staff said he will give me after 30 mins which he doesn't. I went out to shop in supermarket, when i came back, the staff shut down the electricity and did not notive the guest at all. No AC and nothing is working.

It's near from Termini station walkable..But bathroom is out of room, and breakfast bar is out of the hotel building. They will serve you 1 Croissant and 1 cup of coffee: however if you ask more, they will offer you. ^^ Nice hotel..

Don't expect more than an affordable place to lay
Nice staff. Was not aware we would have a shared bathroom. We were not wanting on and the listing said external not shared. It should be more clearly stated in the future. Although the staff was nice, the room was difficult to sleep in because the walls were paper thin. I could hear people walking. talking, and breathing in the hallways and their rooms. Also, people tend to arrive late back to their rooms... which is fine, except that every single night, a guests forgets or doesn't have their key to the door, so they just stand there pushing the buzzer for what seems like forever until they successfully wake up a guest who can let them in, because staff leaves around 5-530. Breakfast wasn't that great but Rome is expensive so we were grateful.

Less than expected
The reception desk was never open and therefore there was never anyone to get help from. The walls are paper thin and there were some very ignorant guests making a lot of noise, but with no staff on site there was nothing to be done and we were given no way to contact them if needed. The showers looked as if there was black mold on the roof. Location was good but that's about all.

When in Rome Accommodation
We had a room for 5 people. Very close to termini station but quiet. The room was basic and clean. The guy in the reception was nice and helpful and we could leave our luggage in the hotel before check in time which was good for us. Included a breakfast with coffee, orange juice and cake. good price for the room.

Great stay at When in Rome
Arrived later in the evening, but took no time to be checked in and was told about a place to go grab a pizza and beer. In the morning, there was a great spot for breakfast across the street. First time to Rome and was staying for the night before catching a train the next morning up North. Was super easy to find and easy to walk to and from the train station.

Budget & OK stay in Rome
Considering it's Rome, the proximity to Termini station and the price - the overall stay was fine. A little attention to details could make it much better: we got one key for a family of five, the room was cleaned once though we stayed 3 nights, the towels weren't changed once. We did got help from the staff in finding kitchen utility.

Great Location ONLY
Besides the location that it's close to Roma Termini, this place is not ideal if you are looking for a good night sleep like that. First arrival, you will be greeted with smells of the building, the elevator is slow, and room itself has smell too, but granted, they are bearable. What bothered me the most is that when there's a guest check in at night, you can hear the guest and the receptionist talking, waking you up in the middle of the night. If you have problem falling asleep back, then this place isn't for you. The room has thin wall so you can hear anything. I won't go back to stay there!

Won't go back
The hotel was near the central train station, which was convenient; however, it was not comfortable to stay in - the single room was so small that it could only hold one twin bed and nothing more. The room that I had was in a different building a block away from where I checked in, so if I need anything I would have to go to another building to find the staff. Breakfast was in a restaurant another block away from where I stayed. The staff didn't know much and couldn't answer most of my questions.

Sono stato anche buono
Arrivo in questo palazzo con due valigie pesanti, l'ascensore non funziona; salgo 5 piani (doppia rampa) di scale a piedi, con le valigie sulle spalle e arrivo sopra. Mi fanno aspettare mezz'ora perchè non risulta la prenotazione, dopodichè mi accomodo in 4 metri quadri di camera. Provo ad accendere la tv ma non funziona; il bagno condiviso non si tratta del classico bagno grande (da camerata per intenderci) ma è proprio una stanza bagno con una doccia un lavandino e un wc, che per andare dovevi prendere il numero della prenotazione (per chi non l'avesse capito questa parte del numero è ironica, ma serve per rendere l'idea). Vicino le chiavi mi danno anche un telecomando per mettere in funzione l'ascensore (che bello), il problema però è che al piano terra e al primo piano questo telecomando non funzionava, per cui dovevo fare 2 piani a piedi per poter poi fare i restanti 3 in ascensore. In conclusione, per quanto possa sembrare economico, è assolutamente soprapagato per i servizi che offre, e data l'enorme concorrenza nei dintorni, sconsigliatissimo

Prezzo contenuto ma servizio discutibile
È stato difficili comunicare con la struttura nei giorni precedenti al soggiorno. Il mio problema era il bagno che, dopo la prenotazione effettuata, risultava in comune. Avevo necessità di cambiare la camera. Ho impiegato tre giorni prima di poter parlare con qualcuno, in quanto c'è solo un numero fisso e nessuna mail a cui scrivere. In realtà il responsabile è stato poi disponibile a cambiare la camera senza aggiunta di spese. All'arrivo abbiamo atteso quasi venti minuti prima che arrivasse il ragazzo per fare il check in. La camera era veramente essenziale: solo un letto e due mini comodini. Nemmeno un armadio dove riporre i cappotti o un appendiabiti. Nel bagno un odore disgustoso e nauseante proveniente dal water. La colazione si effettua in un bar convenzionato che però non ti dà la possibilità di scelta sul cibo: solo ciambellone.

I had some very noisy and chainsmoking young Italians as neighbors. They seemed to be living in their hotel room for a longer period and treated the place like it was a student dorm. The smoke crept into my room, the corridor and the bathrooms. Apart from that: A centrally located place in need of repair, but cheap and with a helpful receptionist. Via Varese is a nice, relatively quiet street.

B&B an günstiger Lage
Wenn Sie gerne in der Nähe des Bahnhofs Termini residieren möchten und etwas sparsam sind, ist diese Unterkunft gut geeignet. Wenn es Ihnen egal ist, dass kaum Personal da ist und sie geniessen, machen zu könnnen, was sie möchten, dann buchen Sie im "when in rome". Sie müssen dafür in Kauf nehmen, dass selten geputzt wird, Wc Papier oder Seife fehlen kann, die Dusche nicht immer funktioniert oder dass sie min 30 min warten, wenn sie etwas vom Personal wollen (wie einchecken oder auschecken). Das Internet ist unbeständig und beim Duschen muss man gut aufpassen. Nicht das halbe Haus unter Wasser zu setzen. Dafür wird man nach dem Treppensteigen in den 5. Stock mit einem eigenen Balkönchen verwöhnt.

Great location,and convienient for a quick visit.
I picked this accommodation because of it's close distance to the Termini station which offered good transportation possibilities through out the city of Rome, and also transportation to the two airports. When getting to the reception, and seeing how there was no one there,first I waited for a short while, then I rang a bell, but no one was there. It took me about 20 minutes to see a sign with a button on the wall just outside the reception door that gave a call signal to the receptionist, who showed up very fast right after. Even though it was not managed 24/7, I could be out late and come back in with no problem as I was given my own keys to the bulding and my room. The walls between the rooms were obviously thin as one could hear very intensively when someone was in the shower, or played music on the next room. Rome can be very warm during June, but thankfully it was just about 20-24 degrees and I did not need the AC, but it would have been nice to be able to turn it on by myself as. I did not find any button or remote to turn it on. Overall if you are stayin in Rome for a quck visit and plan to spend fairly little time in the room, then this place is a convinient choice - good value for the money and its location.

良いです
入口が分かりづらいです。通り過ぎてしまうと思いますが、大きなホテルの横に小さな看板があり、インターホンを押すと開けてくれます。お部屋は部屋ごとに国の名前がついていて、その国の雰囲気で装飾しています。朝食は別の場所ですが、近いのでとくに不便ではありませんでした。イタリアンブレックファーストはコーヒーとジュースと菓子パンのみですが、近くに露店でフルーツを売っていたので、ミネラル補給は買い食いでできます。Wifiは無料ですが部屋ではほとんど使えません（場所によっては使えるかも？）フロント周辺は問題なく使えると思います。

Excellent rapport qualité/prix!
Honnêtement je pense qu il est impossible de faire mieux en rapport qualité/prix! 55 euro la nuit avec petit déjeuner inclus et dans Rome! Le réceptionniste était vraiment gentil et dévoué à nous conseillé tout ce qu il y avait de mieux. En terme de beauté et d esthétique, ce n était pas le grand luxe pour la chambre et la salle de bain..mais c etait vraiment correct. La salle de bain était à partager avec 2 autres chambres et elle était nettoyé chaque jour, il y en avait même 2! L hotel était situé à 3 minutes à pied de la station de métro Termini..à partir de là vois alliez où vous voulez facilement. Le petit déjeuner se fesait avec un ticket dans le bar du coin, comme c est le cas pour beaucoup d hotel...avec un café ou thé, et une patisserie. Tres peu diétetique mais à 2 minutes à pied il y avait un magasin " Connad" , qui correspond à un genre de carrefour express..on y trouvait de tout à un prix correct..de délicieuse saladz de fruit frais pour 3 euro par exemple. Décue de la saleté à Rome ( boUteille de verre sur les trottoirs,odeur d urine,déchets partout) lieu fort touristique et donc pas toujours évident de trouver quelque chose de bon pour dinner.le restaurant "Sofia" à 3 minutes à pied de l hotel était correct. Il y avait juste à coté un genre de restaurant luxueu oû nous sommes allé également.on y paye vraiment la déco. Chez Sofia ca ne paye pas de minne coté déco mais il y a une terrasse dehors qui ne se voit pas de l.exterieur et la nourriture était bonne.

Buona la posizione e il prezzo ma per il resto...
Il B&B si trova in un condominio tranquillo in zona Termini, quindi comodo per raggiungere tutte le zone della città. Ci sono alcuni servizi vicini come farmacia, ristoranti, noleggio moto e bici ecc.. La camera era pulita ma in condizioni pessime: muri da reimbarcare, pavimento molto danneggiato, tv non funzionante, pareti sottilissime... si sentivano distintamente le conversazioni degli altri ospiti, materasso buono ma rete sfondata, personale dell'albergo non rintracciabile dopo il check in...
