Nice hostel, but it's at the back of beyonds
Once you complete the whole odyssey to get to where it is, the hostel is not bad at all. The building has been recently renovated, or so it seems, and the rooms are very big. The problem is the access. If you travel around in Italy you will know about how "well" everything works, especially the public transport or anything public. It took us an hour to figure out how to get there, and we were driving. And if you don't have a car, prepare yourself to pay a taxi, because the last bus from Ciampino to the hostel is ridiculously early. One piece of advice. Don't expect to find anything nice in Ciampino for your last night in Italy before the flight -- it's a complete dump.

Nice place, pretty hard to get to.
I stayed here in order to be close to the Ciampino airport for a Ryanair flight early in the morning. The hostel itself is pretty nice. Our room was spacious and clean and linens were provided. The staff was helpful and they let us use the internet for free. There are lockers in the room and there is some kind of breakfast provided, but I left before it was served. The only catch about this place is that it is hard to get to. I think it's the 1b bus that you take to the last stop but figuring that out was a pain. Also you have to take two buses to get to the airport which is probably about a thirty-minute trip. We chose to take a taxi for €15. And the bus system is pretty unreliable. Plan on it being like ten minutes late. So overall it is a great hostel, but it's a bit hard to get to.
