  • "Decent location, plenty of freebies"

  • (4 out of 5 stars)
  • The M&J Hostel, located north of the Termini Station, has been in business since the mid-90s. The hostel offers free breakfast, free internet, free hot showers, and free maps (did we mention they're free?) The movie lounge has satellite TV and movies playing all day long, if you need down time. There's also a bar next door.

  • The M&J has a convienient location for the metro and has a very friendly, very knowledgable staff, but other than that we couldn't recommend it. If you book beds for 2, expect to share a bed; good perhaps for a couple (though not for their roomates), and a bit awkward for a brother and sister (like us). Also, definately skip the free "Italian" breakfast, unless stale rolls and spoiled milk are to your liking. Not much opportunity to meet other travelers in the hostel either. Also the custodial staff for the building can be downright rude to the hostelers. Not an impossibly uncomfortable place, but not recommended.
  • "OK Stay"

  • The hostel is ok, nothing more nothing less.

    Room: The bunk beds are not as good as beds at other hostels. Any slight movement results in the whole bunk bed shaking. The room was full and the hostel did not do a good job in assigning beds. As a result, I was woken up in the middle of the night by someone who didn't have a bed.

    The bathrooms were pretty filthy. They definitely need to clean it more often. Way too many people were sharing each bathroom.

    The good: Free internet and free breakfast. No in room lockers, but small safe available by front desk. Close to the train station, very convenient for late arrivals.

    Don't go to the restaurant/bar downstairs. Anytime someone tells you "I'll give you a discount only because you are my friend," they actually mean surcharge. I was overcharged by the less than honest staff, but was too tired at that point to fight over 2 euros.

    Its a hostel and its cheaper than their competitors, but be aware of its shortcomings. It is only acceptable because I stayed here one night and didn't use the showers.
