I had a mixed stay at Retrome. The property is centrally located right next to Termini station. Breakfast is included at a nearby cafe, and consists of a pastry and coffee/juice. You also get 15 minutes free internet each day at an internet cafe close by.

The room I stayed in was not cleaned in the week I stayed there - including no change of towels. The rooms were hot and stuffy despite having a small fan. The hostel is also rather run down, the sheets really need to be replaced.

Although the hosts were pleasant, I had some issues with one - for eg. he noted he would come to the hostel and take those who were staying there to watch a soccer game, but he never showed up. The other host does a magic show each week, which is entertaining but probably more so for younger guests.

We loved our place! it was very well located and stylish (original decor). Make sure to talk to the hosts as they have an intimate knowledge and pointed us to some places we would have never gotten too. I'd stay agian (i want to come back to Rome asap!)

Average hotel whose main highlight is the decor. We had some difficulty with access - our plane was delayed and we were 1.5 hours later than what we had stated we would arrive. Unfortunately the owner had left even though the website said to let them know if you would be >2 hours late.

The room was basic, bathroom shared and kitchen facili ties if you wish to use them. The best part about this place is the location - we were after a place close to the station which which made it ideal for getting back to the airport.

The mirrored ceiling in our room was quite mesmerising.

it's was an unbelivable stay. the design of the rooms is very creative and fun- one of a kind. the owners are young and cool guys that know and make everything so you will enjoy your stay- they told me a bout there favorite hang out places so i could feel like less than just a regular tourist. the rooms are very cosy and relaxing,and u feel like u in kind of a -50's movies with the wall papers and the colours.so not just the sighting outside get u stimulated...
the breakfast is a good italian one... what can i say it was a wonderfull stay

  • Liked — the design and the friendly owners
  • Disliked — none
  • Tips/Secrets: — ask the owners a bout there favorite places in rome so u can feel like a local

Retrome...
The good - location (termini in literal steps) funky interior, fridge, benji & moti and their sincere willingness to help and knowledge of the area, limoncino shots, breakfast credits at the coffee shop down the road (italian coffee.... mmmm)
The ok - first night in another hotel due to technical difficulties with retrome but the fact we had to checkin in-out-in twice in 12 hours restricted what we could do with our time.
The bad - no reception (´the reception is not here - greets the sign on the door) you have to ring moti or benji if you dont arrive exactly when you say you will (in an advance email).
The ugly - shared bathroom. The facts: toilet and shower were in the same room. up to eight people in apartment. Editorialising: Between eight people its always going to be a problem but even when we tried to ameliorate the problem by showering in the evening you still have to take your morning ablutions and get in line. I wish there was a better way
