I, and my father, rather enjoyed the Asia Hostel in Rome, Italy. While it's kind of in a sketch neighborhood, the place itself is great and the access to the Termini Train Station is great. The only problem I had with the hostel is that there was no air conditioning, but we got along just fine. The management at Asia Hostel is VERY accomodating and very nice. I forgot about the free breakfasts in the morning, so those were nice to have as well. If you need somewhere to sleep in Rome for a cheap price, I would stay here.

Not at all like described in the website. We booked a room for four people and ended up in a room for seven people. And the breakfast, what in the **** was that?

This is a great place to go to if you speak their language, but bad for only English speakers. Every time I needed something, I had to go to the reception so that the person their could call the owner for me to speak to b/c she is the only one that spoke English. Also, the reception was never open in the morning, so when I needed to check out at 8, I couldn't return the keys, nor get inside the building to slip them under the reception door. I ended up giving them to someone who shared my room. However, they are very friendly and helpful. I thought this was a 24 hr check in but when I got there, they said I couldn't. They did find me a place to stay though, so that was nice. It was very clean and they serve you a roll, coffee, and juice for breakfast.

we have booked a double room asking for a private bath, but when got there we were told that we did not arrive at the precisely hour that we have estimated to be there and our reservation was cancelled (we arrived at about 3 pm and we said we would be there about 12pm)
the only choice we were offered was a room with 5 beds and shared bath in a three room apartment having a bathroom and one shower.
this of course kind of ruined our first impression on Rome so pay attention when you cooose your stay. this was located just across the station and the neighbourhood was really lousy and noisy at all times.
conclusion:
if you are a student and you have a low budget, then you might want to consider this as location for a short visit to Rome.

I payed the reservation, but the Asia hostel cancelled my reservation whitout any contact. The adress was incorrect, there wasn't any person capable to explain about the situation (Only a women which speak just chinese). The women responsible for my reservation, arrived three hours later and said that my reservation it was cancelled because I didn't answered her email. But I did not receive this email and I received only emails confirming my reservation and my payment. She said that I will be reimbursed, but until now I did'nt received any contact. I wished that the Asia Hostel will be banned from this site, specially because they were irresponsible with their guests. Moreover, I had to pay a daily three times more expensive than my budget in other hotel.
