We booked online with Blue hostel, arrived on time at their "24 hour reception" which is a doorbell (unanswered) and a phone number. We telephoned the number, were informed that they had received our booking but had no room for us! The man on the phone said he hadn't bothered to contact us despite having our phone number and that we would just have to go elsewhere. Despite this, they still had rooms advertised online! Do not book at this hostel if you actually want a room to sleep in!!!!

Stayed at Via Labicana 29 Rome in the 2 bedroom 2 ensuite apartment with kitchen and lovely terrace only minutes away from the Colliseum. Spotless, simple and extremely convenient. Andrea arranged our taxi from the airport and met us at the apartment where he gave us an informative session on recommended places to visit and eat - very useful. Lovely location and will definately recommend - we travelled as a party of 4 including our 2 sons. GREAT!

Absolutely brilliant. We stayed at the apartment owned by the hostel. There's a view of the Collesium. It has a little lounge, bedroom, kitchen, dining room and a great little terrace ...stay there? I'd like to live there! Nicely done out, modern but authentically 'roman'. Perfectly clean, great service form the owners including lots of tips for restaurants etc. No more than a five minute walk into the main tourist spots. At just £45 each, it's only a bit more expensive than some of the hostels but is a huge step above.
Fantastic option for couples. HIGHLY recommend.
