Muchas gracias por la hospitalidad a todos, el hostel se encuntra cerca de los puntos turisticos y de la estacion de trenes, se puede acceder facilmente caminando.

La verdad, que cuando vi el barrio, me asusté un poco. Pero el trato con la dueña fue muy amable.
El lugar es limpio, cambian las sábanas alrededor de las 10 am. El desayuno incluia jugo, lehce, café, pan, mermelada, nutella!!!!
Hay dos baños para ducharse. Obviamente, recuerden que hay que esperar el turno para bañarse y relajarse luego de un agotador día de visitas.
Que lo disfruten!

The room was NOT as expected, we had the private double room which did have an ensuite however was not as advertised on the web. The hostel has NOT been recently renovated, is very shabby and to a poor standard. The area around the hostel is very close to the station however is not the safest, especially at night!! Also the woman who runs the hostel speaks very little English and there is no breakfast nor food available at any times.

Walked up 5 flights of stairs (elevator opened by key only) then was told I was double booked and was told to go somewhere else. Not a very nice atmosphere.

it pretty good with the service in Dino, but it was very pity that after my 2 days staying in dino hostel, i got the bite of insect. i think it is because of the bed sheet. until today, it is more than 2 weeks time, but still make me fell so itchy. i have to use the medical cream for that. Actually, it was not the good impression for me about dino.

We made res. online for this hostel and when we arrived in Rome we found out it was located in a terrible terrible street without security. Our reservation was for 3 or 4 days i dont remember but we only stayed for one night then got the hell out.
If you go to bed early and wake up late maybe you can underestimate the location because daytime is rather more secure so to speak.
Overall, our concern was mainly about the dangerous neighbour which made the hostel "unstayable".

We booked two beds and when we arrived over there, only one bed and a woman who didn't understand English where there. So we had to move everything to another hostel...
So I would say, book a bed in another hostel if you don't want to walk a lot with your heavy backpacks.

Dino hostel is the worse hostel we have ever experience while travelling Europe! We have booked a room for 4 people but was told there that the room reserved for us is only for 2 people. They then insisted on charging us (per person) a higher price for the room for 4 people. The staff at the main building (the address stated on their website) were rude and were openly exasperated with the room problem.

The room itself is also not very impressive. It certainly does not fit the image shown on the hostel website.

Stay in the hostel: Dec 2006
