Pop Inn Hostel Reviews

One of the best things about the Pop Inn hostel is the location. It's directly opposite Termini, the hub for getting around Rome. If you don't have a car (and you'd have to be pretty nuts to want to drive around Rome or anyway) then to get around you either walk or take the buses or Metro which all leave from Termini. However, being opposite the Termini does mean there is a fair amount of noise during the night especially if you have a room facing the road, so if you have trouble sleeping with noise bring ear plugs in the summer when it is way too hot to close the shutters!

The Pop Inn is very clean, they even provide you with sheets and make the beds every day. The bathrooms are new and kept very clean. The showers are great, although more bathrooms would be handy. The common room is very small, but it does have a reasonable library of tourist-type books and two computers that you can use for free internet. The atmosphere is reasonably social, particularly around reception and the common room, but it is nice and quiet in the dorm room areas (apart from the continual traffic and outside noise if you have the shutters open).

There is a big sign outside, so you won't have any problems finding the place, use the buzzer at the door, then head up to reception on the second floor. The staff have to buzz you in to the main door downstairs and you also have to get them to open the doors for the individual floors every time you come in, but this is a good thing for security and there is someone there 24 hours so it isn't a problem.

Breakfast is included. It's a croissant and drink from a cafe just down the street, not a big meal but very nice, if you can handle sweet stuff for breakfast go for the chocolate croissant, it is filled to the brim with chocolate and very tasty!

Description

Pop inn guys! We want to give you good reasons to choose the Pop Inn Hostel, which is one of the most popular hostels in Rome.

First of all our price covers all:

- 15 minutes free internet per day in an internet cafe around the corner PLEASE NOTE: due to a new Italian terrorism law, there are new strict rules for hotels & hostels to be allowed to provide internet to clients in their property, so temporarily we are forced to not offer this service in the hostel anymore, but everybody receives a voucher for 15 minutes free internet per day at the laundry place around the corner.
- Free 24hr Italian breakfast available (Do you leave too early? Do you wake up too late?)
- Free hot showers 24hrs (you can enjoy Rome until late!)
- Free security lockers (please bring your own padlock)
- Free city maps (you don't need to buy one, we provide it for you!)
- Free luggage storage (the day you check out we take care of your luggage until you leave)
- Free linen and blankets (…& you don't have to make your bed because we do it for you!)

All the services above are included in the rate, plus with us YOU SAVE MONEY & TIME getting around the city, eating & drinking:

We have no curfew and a 24 hours reception - you can check in at ANYTIME. Rooms are ready and cleaned by 15:30 (if you check in earlier you can use our free luggage storage or hang out in the common room). We give you a map, we show you the best way to enjoy Rome & we give you discount cards for restaurants, pizzerias, laundry nearby, pubs, rent a scooter & bike, exchange money, garage & +.

We have no curfew & no lock-out, so you can stay out as late as you want, sleep in as long as you like & we will be happy to party with you in our nice, spacious & comfortable common room with plasma screen tv.

In our hostel each room is taken care of down to the smallest particulars, here you won't find sterile white walls surrounding your bed, but a rainbow of colours and pop art prints that are sure to brighten your stay. We offer dorm & private rooms (Please note that we have an age limit of 35 years for shared rooms only) in a very clean & comfortable environment, & all our bathrooms are kept spotlessly clean so that you don't have to be worried if you want to book a room with shared bathroom. All of the rooms are freshly cleaned everyday & the beds made. We have fans in the summer & in the winter heaters keep the rooms warm and cozy.
Towels provided for private rooms.
-Hair-dryers in the rooms or available at the reception (so you have extra space in your luggage for gifts)
