Too noisy streets around, needed earplugs. Cabin-unit ideal (2-bed en-suite) but is shared with neighbours, each movement is felt which led to sleepless nights. Easy bus/metro facility to Rome.

Good campsite and value for money - you are at least 30-45 mins out of the city though (with bus waiting time etc maybe an hour sometimes) but they have a fantastic pool and facilities.

Completely out of rome, not good if ur on your own and want interaction. Good if u want to get away from the city hostels and maybe some time on ur own. Staff were good! Wireless and internet was down whole time. which means going into the city.

This place exceeded all of our expectations! It is far from the center of Rome, 30min-1hr. But it makes up for that by being close to the beach, 15 min. Also there is volleyball, tennis, and swimming pools. It even had a mini-market and a restaurant. I would highly recommend it if you have been... more This place exceeded all of our expectations!

It even had a mini-market and a restaurant. I would highly recommend it if you have been to Rome before and know the area. Even if you have not been to Rome, I would recommend it, however, make sure you know how to get around and ask for directions and help from the front desk. Enjoy!close

Sorry!: Because of a bed information and misunderstanding of the receptionist, we have to pay 50 € more to last day. We demand pay back, because not are our fault. For the rest, good. Thank you. FAMILY ROIGE DÍEZ (4 members). CATALONIA, SPAIN.

NOT near anything you want to be near. It was VERY loud during the day---like bird mating season or giant crickets. When I asked the staff what that sound was, she replied "What sound" and then later said if you are wondering that sound goes away at night. I think they are taught to...

I loved that it was outside the city even thought it took a while to get there. There needs to be toilet paper provided especially in the communal bathrooms. The water temperature was very tricky, I either burned myself or froze. It was nice quite location, very pretty with lots of trees.

Shower was broken, toilet was broken, airconitioning was broken, and in the trees were insects that eat your skin and burn it! Too far from the city and unfriendly staff.

Camping Fabulous was Fabulous! The pool is amazing, the trailers are clean and air conditioned. The staff was great! I liked being out of the busy city, it is a good spot between Rome and the coast. The only down fall is having to take a bus, the bus system in Rome was slightly unreliable.

The directions to get to the hostel were a little vague and that made it a little stressful to get to. The location outside the city is very nice and it is very beautiful. It was convenient to have a restaurant and mini market right there. Really enjoyed staying in our little mobile home.

Quite popular with the locals (the few people that were there appeared to be Italians) but should pick up as the weather improves. The self-contained huts are great at this price and bar/restaurant was handy. Book airport shuttles 24 hours in advance. Didn't attempt to get into town from here.... more Quite popular with the locals (the few people that were there appeared to be Italians) but should pick up as the weather improves.

This camp ground was ok. You don't have to have a tent; there are mobile homes. The rooms were clean. The only complaint is the campground is far away. You have to take a long trip on the metro and then another long bus ride to get to the camp ground.

This was a very nice hostel to stay in for a relaxing stay in Rome. It's a bit far from the city- but it's pretty easy to get there via bus and metro. This is basically a place to stay if you only want a place to stay at night. For that it's perfect. I really enjoyed my stay.
