No fan was provided (unlike what it says in the description). No laundry facilities whatsoever (unlike description) and no laundrette close. Owner was lovely though!close

it's rather accessible, but it's located alongside a road and can get rather noisy in the night and early morn. other than that, it's a good place to stay in. the staff helped me to locate certain places i wanted to go at night to plan my next day's trip. thanx! ;)

Disappointing. The room was pretty spacious, but looked empty. granted, it was well equipped (not too well tho) - but it looked ugly, and kinda took the fun out of the little time we spend there. The location is great (near colosseum and central train station). but! its window is looking at... more Disappointing.

The location is great (near colosseum and central train station). but! its window is looking at a main street and the noise from the street is almost unbearable if you want to catch some sleep, even at late hours. air conditioning works, but due to the size of the room it doesn't do anything.close

Name pretty much says it all. A bed in Rome. Location was excellent as it was right by a metro stop and we were able to walk to all the main sights. Not much else to say about it, not the amenities as some newer hostels, but it was cheap and clean

Great! Mauro is so helpful on check in, full of suggestions. Good location about 100m from metro station. Would be hesitant to stay there again in midsummer though, Rome is brutal and there is no A/C (there is a ceiling fan but it doesn't spin that quick). Free wifi is fast and reliable, good bonus.

Close to the Colliseum, about 8mins walking distance. And close to the metro stations you need to go to other places! Price is reasonable and Mauro is quite nice and helpful!

The owner was extremely helpful. He gave us a map and circled things we may want to see, and was available to answer questions we had about the city. We would definately go back

This place was great. It was very close to the metro and in walking distance to the Colosseum. The manager was great and did what it took to make your stay great. I would stay here again.

I had a very pleasant stay at the hostel. The rooms were very nice and clean. It is a 7 min. walk from the colloseum and a 1 min. walk from metro Manzoni. The area is quiet, Mauro was very helpful and for me it was a sort of home in Rome.

We are very satisfied. The host (Mauro) was kindly and helpful, even when we loosed the keys of our room and the front door at sunday evening. We can recommend RomeBed. Bert

please change the direction to get there, the metro station is not the second one, but the stop right after Termini (the name of the stop is correct though)
