Guest Reviews
Location
The building itself is a large, historic structure with a distinctive charm, described as having a nostalgic, classic touch. The location is strategically beneficial for short stays, perfect for travelers arriving or departing from the airport, which is just a short taxi or bus ride away.
In terms of accessibility, Litus Roma provides direct proximity to the beach and free public beach access just across the street. The hostel is also close to the bus stop and train stations, facilitating easy connections to Rome's city center. The centrality within Ostia allows guests to explore the town's main attractions, as well as local eateries and beach cafes, all within walking distance.
Overall, guests consistently highlight the hostel's excellent location, being right on the seafront and central to everything necessary for a comfortable stay. The combination of a convenient position, friendly staff and beautiful seaside views makes Litus Roma Hostel a well-regarded choice for visitors to this coastal part of Rome.
Breakfast
COVID-19 regulations have also limited some of the services, including breakfast, which might explain the current setup. For those who are open to it, there is the option to prepare breakfast on one's own using available facilities. Despite this limitation, everything else at the hostel is noted as being really great, making it a solid choice for travelers who prefer flexibility and are not dependent on having a breakfast included in their stay.
Rooms
The shared facilities, including the bathrooms and kitchen, are generally well-maintained and clean. Free parking and a strategic location close to the airport make it a convenient choice for travelers. However, some aspects require attention. Many guests have noted that the rooms and furniture are quite outdated and in need of renovation. Issues such as broken hangers, minimal furniture and low-tier bunk beds detract from the overall experience. Additionally, the absence of air conditioning and occasional issues with cleanliness, like windows dirty with pigeon droppings and rooms with a musty smell, have been points of concern.
Despite its flaws, the hostel’s affordability, ample parking and scenic views make it a viable option for budget-conscious travelers. The large, comfortable rooms with daily cleaning services are advantages that potential guests can look forward to.
Beds
The beds are often said to be small and relatively short, but still manage to be comfortable. Some guests noted that the pillows were not very comfortable, while a few mentioned that they had to make their own beds, which was an inconvenience. The issue of mosquitoes was raised multiple times, causing discomfort during the night for some guests. Despite these minor drawbacks, the consensus is that the hostel’s beds provide a decent level of comfort and the proximity to the beach is an added bonus.
Cleanliness
However, there are contrasting reviews indicating issues with cleanliness. Some guests report dirty clothes, moisture problems and unpleasant odors in the rooms. Complaints also include dusty environments, dirty windows and outdated facilities. Specific concerns are mentioned about moldy shower doors, rusty fixtures and general feelings of neglect in some areas. Reports of cockroaches and full garbage cans with no bags add to the negative feedback.
Despite these issues, the frequent commendation of the cleaning staff's efforts and the overall clean atmosphere in many parts of the hostel suggest a degree of diligence in maintaining cleanliness, even if inconsistencies are apparent.

This close proximity to both free and private beach areas allows for easy access and plenty of opportunities to bask in the sun or take a refreshing dip in the clean public beach waters. Several reviews highlight the practical and comfortable accommodation that complements the beachfront experience, as well as the pleasant sounds and sights of the sea available from the windows.
Visitors appreciate the convenience of being able to quickly walk to the beach, describing it as a lovely and nice place to spend the day. While the seafront may not be widely memorable, the immediate access and beautiful ocean views make up for any minor shortcomings. The hostel is also highlighted for its practical features like the option to borrow beach umbrellas, allowing for a comfortable and convenient beach visit.
Overall, Litus Roma Hostel's prime beachfront location, combined with easy access to free and clean beaches, makes it a fitting choice for travelers looking to enjoy some time by the sea.

Accessible
The 24-hour reception and convenient check-in service ensure a hassle-free experience no matter what time guests arrive. An elevator is available, making higher floors accessible and there's spacious parking for those traveling by car. Guests will also find an ATM within 100 meters, adding to the convenience factor.
For those looking to enjoy the sea, the hostel's proximity to the beach is a major plus with the sandy shore just one block away. This coastal advantage is complemented by easy access to an array of local amenities, including markets, cafés and even a laundry service on-site.
However, it is worth mentioning that while the hostel itself is generally accessible, there is only one room adapted for disabled individuals and it features a challenging entrance with a long flight of stairs. Some guests noted that the overall accessibility for wheelchair users could be improved, especially regarding the bathrooms and main entrance.
Despite these limitations, Litus Roma Hostel remains a well-connected choice for travelers wanting to explore Rome and its surroundings while enjoying the convenience of nearby public transportation and local attractions.
