“Lovely hotel for a weekend break. The owner was incredibly helpful and spoke fluent English. The 4-bed dorm had only 3 beds, a pleasant surprise. Each bed had its own lamp, plug sockets, and locker. The Monti area felt safe and lively, with great bars and restaurants nearby. Conveniently close to Termini station.”
