I don't know why Rick Steve's listed this place in his book. He made it sound like a fun place to stay, but it wasn't fun, unless you idea of fun is staying in a dirty and run down room. The walls and ceiling were dirty and stained and had holes in them. The toliet seat wasn't fastened properly and... more

We went to Rome on a whim so we had no reservations or idea of where to stay. When we arrived in the Termini station from the airport we only knew that there were many places to stay nearby. We used the tourism service, Enjoy Rome to help us find a place for the weekend. Our requirements were only that... more

Had to have an overnight room after our flight in from Germany before we could get into our other lodging. Chose this one as one of the cheaper ones close to the train station. Definitely paid for it. The bathroom smelled horrible and was covered in a 1/8" layer of water over the whole floor. Our room opened up to... more

Reading the reviews now for Fawlty Towers I can't believe I stayed at the same hotel. I came to Rome a couple of weeks ago and had a relaxed and overall pleasant experience. I have to say I am a huge fan of the television show Fawlty Towers and the name of this hotel did catch my eye. For a... more

After a delay on the train coming from Arezzo to Rome we were tired and picked the name of Fawlty Towers out of an old 'Rough Guide'. Things have gone downhill since they recommended it. Imagine a place run by Basil without the steadying hand of Sybil - yes, it is even worse than the fictional Torquay model! And not... more

The worst hotel I have ever set foot in!!!! Air conditioner didn't work, fan didn't work[although I didn't think I wanted it to as it was so dirty]. Kitchen was not clean, no hot water for cleaning, no dishes that looked clean enough to eat off. We booked a triple bedded room and we got what looked like 3 army... more

First, if you, after reading this, decide to book this hostel, pls make sure that you are accommodate in the place you are booking. They have 5 different buildings and they send clients wherever they want upon arrival, with no reason and whitout explaining you why. People at the reception are very rude, don't help you and their only answer... more

It was fairly inexpensive but there are other cheap sleeps in that neighborhood of Rome which are nicer. The hotel can't help the street noise but we must have been right over a bar or something...? The bed was cramped and had one pillow for a double. Hmmm. It was clean enough. I personally won't return but it wasn't hideous... more
