Like many of the other Italian Hostelling International hostels, location of this hostel is not good. From the train station to the hostel you need to ride two different subways. And it's not close to any of the major attractions in the city. The nearby neighborhood features a supermarket, a McDonald's and a pizzeria - and that's all.
That being said, the hostel is mostly clean. The bathrooms leave a little to be desired, but they aren't terrible. The dorms rooms are pretty sparse - nothing more than the beds in there. But they do provide you with some very large lockers for free.
There is a snack bar in the hostel with some reasonably priced items, including microwave dinners, to go along with the ice cream and beer they sell. Breakfast is better than most, as they actually have some cereal to go along with you rolls and jam/nutella.
This hostel has a reputation for very unfriendly staff, but the owners say that changes have been made more recently and there does seem to be an improvement.
