M&J Place Hostel Rome Hostel

This was the cheapest place we found at night and it was close to the main station of Rome. The receptionist was helpful and made a small discount. However there was no air conditioning in the room, the locker in the bathroom and toilet was broken, and we had to wait for a while until the water in the shower becomes warm enough to take a shower. When we arrived in the evening other people were on our beds and we had to talk to the receptionist to move those people to another room.

Bed bugs. Please for your own good do not stay here. No matter the price find somewhere different. You absolutely do not want to deal with having bed bugs trust me.

Apart from the clean bed linen, no more good.

Very friendly Staff and family place. Although I stayed two days I felt like home. Very low Prices. Multicultural with the possibility of making new friends Located in the center next to a beautiful square and within 1 minute walk from Termini station. I Ask the staff: does Peter still work there?

Very very very bad, dirty, the bedding a mess, the attention of the worst, a site to not to take into account if you do not want to have a bad time on your trip.

A real dump!
Worse than the rendezvous houses!
Dirty, and Truffaldini. He deserves finance!
Book at a price. Then the owner or whoever for him asks you extra money x sheets towels, arrogantly! Take advantage of events. Non-existent hot water, hygiene office How does it keep it open? Better sleep in a disgraceful dormitory of bums!

Let me tell you something about this place: 1. It’s bad because the service is extremely terrible. How so? They moved our room to another room without prior notice. 2. We paid for the 18 euros service and instead, what we got are, broken toilets, cold showers and only a piece of blanket without comforter 3. The people who work there excluding the cleaners, managers, etc are actually people who don’t get paid for their jobs. 4. You have to pay for city tax in total of 3.50 euros and the tax have to be paid by each night instead of just a one time tax payment 5. The people aren’t friendly, when we confronted them about the services and facilities, their answers are ‘there’s nothing we can do’, ‘the manager is not here’, ‘we can’t help you’. For God’s sake, we paid 22 euros for this kind of service? 6. Please do not come here and stay, I understand the location is great but there are many other hostels in Rome and I wouldn’t mind paying extra, but this hostel has got to be the worst experience so far.

The worst hostal, very dirty, the people are totally desorganized, I pay more for a room with 6 beds and they give me one with 8 beds, in the room was a beggar smells very bad, and the worst thing I found bed bugs very disgusting, this bed bugs bite me everywhere. This hostel makes my experience in Rome the worst in my life! Please people think if u want stay in this terrible hostel. I know is cheaper, but you can find something better with few euros more.

Location is right next to the train station (good or bad depending on what you're looking for), but don't stay here. The bad reviews are true. I ended up staying here because I booked last minute and it was bad. The room was old. I walked into a shared suite with no idea which beds were free and just had to assume. I have no idea if the sheets were new or clean, the shower did not work, and the wardrobe (which wasn't really a wardrobe) was rusting. Not to mention I had to pay when I got there but they still charged my card. I learned 2 things from this experience. Don't be cheap and don't book last minute!

After taking the piss because on the internet there were prices while once arrived from them the prices were different (cheaper) we are at 7 in the morning the type of reception (of which does not know a word of Italian, it seems right we are in Italy) That wakes us up to tell us that they had hurt the bills and we had to pay the difference, taking a accusatory air as if we wanted to somehow make the sly to deceive them more than in Rome terms seems to be in former Yugoslavia given the conditions of the stable, holes in the ceiling, broken intercom, broken doors etc etc…, in Wi-Fi was not going, in the bathrooms lacked soap and hot water, do not accept cards only cash, bunk beds shaky and broken, experience more unique than rare, recommended!

Simply the worst hostel to stay. We stayed only one night. The reception on 1st floor and rooms from floor 2 onwards (not allowed to use the lift which is there to load the bags to the floor accordingly). They gave us a room key so every time we wanted to enter, someone from reception had to open a door of our own room. The Wi-Fi was awful, the signal to only go to the reception. We didn't have a control for the air conditioning. The bed was incómodisima, you felt all the springs. The walls were despintadas and dirty. The bathroom had 3 lights: of which one was burnt and the other had a hole in it directly. So we were in twilight. The sink in the bathroom was losing water so we flooded all over the floor. The shower we didn't use because it was full of scale and dirty. Even gave us soap for washing hands. It is not recommended for anything, the price is carisimo to the quality and "comforts" that are offered.

Only thing I liked about this hostel was the staff. Aurelio, Stefano, Giovanni and Paul were incredibly nice and would do anything to make the stay more pleasant. Aside from that, my experience here was unpleasant to say the least. Very uncomfortable mattresses, no soap in the bathrooms, always very cold, bad smells in the bathroom, water took a long time to warm up. Would not recommend staying at this establishment.

Really not to recommend:
-Everything calcified in the bathroom
— In at least two rooms, the water in the bathroom does not work…
— In the bathroom, the appliances are also broken.
— Upstairs where the water works, the roof is leaking and it moulds throughout the room…
There is no refund even after indications of the mold if you cancel. Only the tax of 3.5 euros per day will be paid back.
As I said, they really do not recommend, if operators of such accommodations have no desire on it, they can make it better be the same.

Would definitely recommend. +They have an all-night desk clerk. This saved my butt when I was looking for a hostel near Termini at 4 AM +The staff is incredibly friendly and helpful. Some of my best experiences in Rome came from their suggestions. +At 15 euro a night, it's a hard price to beat. +I was there off-season, but I ended up with a whole room to myself for multiple nights -Hot water didn't work.

Warm, secure and give a sheet white bed cover and pillow case and the reception staff were fantastic. Slightly more at €15 a night rather than rome average €9 but stones throw from termini. However the bed was dirty, my rome did not smell pleasant. The bathroom was a mess.

One of the worst places i've ever been to. Half of the bathrooms dont have hot water, the place is dirty, the rooms smell very bad, you end up sharing the bathrrom with so many people that taking a shower can mean more than an hour waiting and of course its gonna be completly dirty. The food at the restaurante its average but definitely overpriced. The roof has leaks if you are lucky only in the hall and not in your room. The location is the only advantage of the place, it's not a nice area but it's 2 min walk from termini station, where you get shuttles to the airport, trains and buses. Anyway the area is full of other places that are better deals for same or cheaper prices.

Good Loved the stay. Great receptionist. Metro station and bus station in walkable distance. There is a supermarket near by. Highly recommended for travellers on budget.

It's been a remarkably pleasant stay, very neat and clean. The staff were always friendly and willing to assist. Great location, great atmosphere. Would love to be back in the future. Definitely recommended.

Awesome Hostel. Best location ever. Super friendly staff and very clean rooms. Great value fot money. Just wish the beds were more comfy. Overall, highly recommend.

Site economic near termini station open 24 hours with staff always very friendly and speak many languages. To return.

The Wi-Fi does not reach well to the rooms, otherwise well enough, it is close to termini so I have metro and train to the side.

Bad and to say the least an understatement, the structure and to renovate, the elevator was not working, the internet wrote that the cost of a bed in a room from 10 was do 7 euros and something while I found them to pay 18 euros! It had been a decent structure but not even that, The bathrooms had no where to hang clothes, broken hair dryer, cold water and baths without heating between here as well the room because a small heating in a huge room does not serve to an emeritus Cazz. Or! It Was cold and The beds were uncomfortable when I lay down it felt like I was falling into a chasm, the Wi-Fi took terrible, 2 people working at the front desk didn't know a word of Italian, I found myself having to speak English in Italy °! Absurd! The only good thing was the central location, the nice staff and the 6 room completely empty for 2 days which to me was very convenient, but not so much to wonder why it was empty in the center of Rome Termini.

Very friendly staff just a couple of minutes walk from the main station. Internet connection revelaed to be unexpectedly reliable. However there was no clean water readily available to drink and no hot water in room. There is also a 3€ mndatory charge per night for the sheets on the bed Overall, decent and cheap stay in a sufficiently clean ans quiet hostel.

If you could, you gave him negative stars
Horrible
I stole
Were not in a position to show me the cameras
There are No lockers
Do not accept card, only cash
The water is cold
The stairs are slim for the bunk beds and they are missing steps
It smells ugly
The doors do not close
The internet is disgusting.

Brought bed bugs home! Not happy that I have been bitten all over and now they are back in the uk with me too and I'm still being bitten! The beds are disgusting and you get charged for the linen which is a joke! So that's an extra charge for the extra guests within the sheets, some bugs are so big they are visible! The water is freezing cold never hot so not thrilling when you need to wash your hair. The staff don't really seem to care about that part but they are happy to help you with what to see and do which I guess is nice. This was the last place I stayed in on my 3 weeks inn Italy and it put a proper downer on the whole trip I couldn't wait to pack and leave! On a plus the cafe' downstairs is friendly and it has a good location but is it worth the aftermarth?

A disaster! Tacky the place is falling to pieces is a shame. The. Asensor can not be used because it is of private use climbed 3 floors with luggage. I was charged taxes by the city as applicable and in addition 4 euros more x taxes of the hotel that never was told I had to pay it and failed to explain why they charged. The room malisima dirty without air vaños all spoiled with las bachas beach waters and the showers are half broken. The truth's a waste of money. Before sleep there one more night, spend the night in the airport.

This is actually one of the worst places I've ever stayed. The beginning of my arrival, the staff barely acknowledged me and it took almost 30 minutes for them to check me in. Then they informed me they only take cash. The rooms are horrificly dirty. The staff and restaurant staff are not friendly and not willing to help. Avoid this hostel at all costs.

Great service, confortable bed, good breakfast, one star less because of messy shower.

Very friendly staff and a 5 minute walk from the main station. Though very unreliable internet connection and no clean water readily available. Be aware of a 3€ charge per night for the sheets on the bed (required, not optional). Overall decent stay.

The rooms don't look like in the photos, they're not very nice. It gets 2 stars, because the people at the reception are very nice.

Bed bugs! Old and needs a better common area. Rooms NEED Wi-Fi. Rude owner.

You'd think a hotel would realize there were more than 10 people in the 10-person room BEFORE they assigned 11 people there. After showering in the moldy shower, and getting into the sheet-less bed in the smelly room, we were surprised to find it was sheet-less because it was SOMEONE ELSE'S. So at 1:00 am, we got refunded (which was gracious of them) and had to wander the streets of Rome to find somewhere to stay. You'd be better off just paying a bit more for an adequate hotel.

Worst place ever. One of the staff was extremely rude and racist. I told him that I found his racial commenta towards me offensive and he still didnt stop. I have been backpacking for 2 years and this was the worst place I stayed at.

Central, rooms had no locks, everyone could come in any room. No air conditioning, too hot during summer.

BED BUGS! First night, no sleep. The room must have been at least 35°. Two of our group of 8 slept on the floor due to the abhorrent sleeping conditions. We paid for the MANDATORY linen which we then used to line the wooden floor. One of the beds was infested with a nest of bedbugs. We woke up to the bloodstained linen sheets as one of our members was bitten at least 30 times by the bugs around 3 hours into his sleep. Not only were there bed bugs but the pillows we were given was like sleeping on a bag of tennis balls! The communal showering conditions were pretty pathetic. The shower dribbled down from the ceiling which was barley enough to wash off the bloodstains which covered my friends back and legs. In the morning we went down to the reception to complain about our horrendous ordeal. A staff member quickly responded to confirm the infestation. We were told that they would deal with the situation. After six of us came back from a day out sightseeing in Rome we found out that we had been kicked out the room. We were not allowed to stay in the room or hostel as it was "too dangerous" to return, and the hostel was already full. We got all three nights refunded including the first night and thanks to cooperative staff they also helped to find us a nearby hostel for the rest off the trip (when in Rome b and b which we recommend as a much better, cheaper alternative). All good right? WRONG!

Great hostal recomment it to anyone that wants to come to rome for a great vacation. The owner mario its very cool guy. And the rest of the working krew is very nice and helpfull.

Clean rooms, fantastic service. Beds not so comfy, but a great place to stay while in Rome.

The front desk staff were really helpful, gave great tips on what to do during my very limited stay, and were very friendly. The room had its own bathroom/shower, but didn't have a lock nor a shower curtain. Absolutely wonderful place, and near the center of town (two minutes from the main train station).

I am a very satisfied with the service offered by this structure a very professional staff who always with a smile, kindness make you feel at home. The studios always clean and recommended this property to anyone who wants to have unforgettable memories.

The experience was great, the people at the hostel very kind and attentive. The rooms are beautiful and spacious, and all very clean and tidy. This super well located, close to practically almost everything in rome. The nights in the room common with Mario and Johanes were the most fun in Europe. Super recommended!

Spend 4 nights in rome, I loved the rooms (for 4 people), nice bathrooms, wonderful attention especially of Mario and Johanes in the night who advised us on trips and how to travel. Latinos we want to johanes.

Very good service, great atmosphere, good people, close to the great monuments, and centers are historical, and most importantly, a rest assured, absolutely recommended,

Great place for travelers. Lots of useful information and helpful staff, they answered all of my questions with a little extra advice. The walking tour is a great way to learn how to get around. Ask Alek about the bar/club scene, had a lot of fun with him showing us Rome @ night. I highly recommend it and will be returning some day!

Absolutely terrible experience. Overpriced for quality. The room had no air conditioning and it smelled really bad. Everything such as the floor and chairs were very dirty. The beds were a total joke, they were very wobbly and one even crashed under my friend. Also, the bathroom was very bad: it took very long time for hot water to come and then the floor was flooding as if the drain wouldn't be there at all. Only good thing was the location, but I'd rather walk a couple of miles than get a headache with this kind of lodging.

The filth of the Earth. Shared bathroom where there is no hot water. High cost for the services it offers. The only advantage is the location.

M&J was one of the best hostels I've visited in my entire Eurotrip! The staff is so friendly, willing to help, and eager to please. I was astonished at how delicious the food in the hostel's restaurant was! M&J is in such an easily accessible location, so close to the major public transportation system, that it was incredibly simple to get anywhere in Roma. I highly recommend staying at this hostel for anyone looking to truly experience the warmth and hospitality of the Italian culture. And Mario is the man.

The hostel is close to the Termini train station, with convenient side. Always a lot of interesting young people from all over the world. I arrived from Moscow and I was interested to chat with guys and girls from Spain, Greece, the Netherlands and Chile. We have a lot of fun walking around Rome, chatted in English, because the bad guys knew Italian. When I travel, I try to choose rooms cheap and I didn't hesitate neighborhood with several people in the room (spacious enough rooms), we became friends and now follow the life of a friend of a friend on Facebook. The hostel is a very friendly staff (thanks guys! ), a 24-hour reception, warm atmosphere! When I returned to Moscow, I recommended hostels friends, especially, students, groups and people of creative professions.

Friendly and always available. The hostel is very clean. Is central and suitable for all tourists and locals alike. I would happily.

Lived here 2 weeks and all was happy. 1.15 minutes from the heart of Rome. 2. Clean cozy and nice atmosphere. 3. Twice a week a free pasta party) ) ) In short I loved it.

My stay at M & J hostel was very good. This in a city strategic place. 200 metres this Rome Termini train station and you can go anywhere in the city in a few minutes. Rooms are comfortable and the service is excellent. They speak Spanish, Portuguese, English, and Japanese. A place ' to recommend for an excellent stay in Rome.

The hostel is perfectly located in the Centre of Rome, next to the central station of Termini train, bus, metro and trains to a single step. Hospitable atmosphere at the hands of Mario, bar of the House on the ground floor. Clean and cozy private rooms to enjoy fully your visit to Rome. They speak Spanish and you give all the details so you don't miss anything…

DISGUSTING! a super place dirty, there are insects in the beds, the attention is not good, almost I arriunan my vacation with this hostel, for nothing I do not recommend this place, only the reception is nice, the beds uncomfortable, if you want to enjoy this beautiful city not go to this hostel stinks!
