only one block from the vatican!

this is a small hostel that's only one block from the vatican, is close to transportation and right outside your door are busy, well lit streets for window shopping. at night, the area is safe. the staff is helpful and friendly, although that staff changes frequently (because many hostels hire travelers). there is free internet access, clean bathrooms, a small lobby with a tv and plenty of booze to share. the staff live there, so they will definitely point you out to local interests. there is also a delicious pizza place downstairs, and bars nearby.
Ottaviano is a great hostel with a convenient location.

Great place to stay in Rome

This is a great hostel – the first hostel I’d ever stayed. While the rooms are nothing to rave about, and the fact that there are only 3 bathrooms for everybody is a little unfortunate, you learn to live with it.

The location is so fantastic the rest pales into insignificance. Close to the Metro, it’s in the very atmospheric Ottaviano area, where locals hang out, and there are lots of little bakeries, gelaterias, pizzerias. Plus, it’s a block away from the Vatican and another to St Peters, which is fantastic. In the evening, grab a gelato and sit by St Peters – doesn’t get much better than that.

by rkearns about pensione ottaviano

if you need advice, i know of a super cheap guesthouse in florence just a 5 min. walk from the train station. i have stayed there a few times and really enjoy the owner's son, who runs the front desk. there is something to be said for hospitality. you get a room, and have the opportunity to share the room or have your own. it's really tidy and comfortable, simple. shared bathrooms, one male, one female. it's called ottaviano.
here's the link:

One particular hostel that I would recommend is The Beehive which is close to Termini.

I've have NOT stayed there but while i was searching for accomodation in Rome two weeks back, i came across this pension and found its environment very nice and friendly. The owner is very helpful.

I hope you'll have more fun in Italy than I had in my recent trip.

Best Wishes,
Umer.
