Comments (English): I actually didn't get the chance to stay in the hostel as my parents have arranged for to stay with them instead at the last minute. But eventhough i didn't even stayed there for more than 15min, i must say that the staff are very accomodating.

Comments (English): we were for 4 nights and we expected a new B&B but when we arrived, we realised that it wasnt true. firstly, staff did the check-in at the supose B&B, but one of them tell us that we will have to wait in a laundry because there was overobooking (something really extrange because we've already booked)and we will stay in another hostel. someone pick us up to the new B&B and when we arrived, we were in front of Tiburtina's cementiry, an ancient neighborhood plenty of poverty (families sleeping in cars...) if I know that before I DIDN'T book it because Tiburtina is dangerous and uncomfortable. on the other hand, the staff from Tiburtina was really really kind and nice!

Comments (English): This hostel has a rather low standard, and some of the equipment need to be mend. The room keys fitted in every room, even the bathrooms! Our room was not properly cleaned for av very long time, and the wardrobe was nearly in pieces. The room was equiped with a TV-set, but this one was out of order. We even saw some cockroaches in the kitchen, in the morning when we served our selves breakfast. Breakfast was minimum size, some french toast, marmelade, organe juice, butter and te or coffe. We never tried dinner even though we were offered this too. This was served at 7 em, when we often strolled in Rome. But: The bed was good to sleep in, the heat was on, it was warmwater in the shower, peace and quiet, it w a s afterall some breakfast, the price was right, central placed, AND the host that took care of the guests was PERFECT - always happy, serviceminded, around and a very nice person - simple as that!!!
OBS! The place to check in is NOT in the hostel - its on a different street (a laundry)

Comments (English): we were not given half the things they offered on their website. we had selected this hostel based on what they had advertised, so we felt very ripped off. we endured the inconvenience of having to move rooms half way through, and not even to a comparable room. this was not what we had in mind for a romantic trip to rome.

Comments (English): Though I booked at Korean Hostel I was not lodged there but in another hostel owned by the same Bangladeshian company, called Friendship Place. They were extremely friendly and helpful people and they really did everything to make our stay pleasant, but they couldn't make up for the fact that the whole place doesn't look at all like in the advertisement pictures... The place was very dirty and run down, and you should also not expect the free breakfast and the evening pasta to be something big. However, the location was absolutely perfect and it's also true that you could hardly find another accomodation in Rome where the 10 euros per night include an even minimal breakfast and dinner, free Internet access and a location close to basically everything. Korean Hostel (or what you get instead of it) is a good bargain and I would recommend it if low price is the first you are looking for, but noone should expect too much else.
