Once we got there with our reservations, a drunk, smelly sleazy old man with his stomach hanging out of his shirt told us there was no room and handed us a map. He pointed to another hostel entirely across Rome and didn't give us a name. Sent us on a wild goose chase, just to get lost and not even find the hostel! MammaMia itself was dingy and gross- no decorations or anything. Not recommended! Also in a very bad part of town.

We were robbed there!!! They don't have lockers, the only thing good is the position, very near from the Coliseum and the Stazione Termini.

Francisco J. , Panama - Apr 27, 2012
Cheap hostel, value for money, close to main area, lacks comfort, needs lots of cleaning, sorroundings dont inspire much confidence.
Eva, Bulgaria - Apr 22, 2012

The hotel is very hard to find and once inside it is very dark an looks like a haunted house. The 'owner' is a confused and dirty man, with a jogging suit and a half naked belly. When we were talking with him, he was panting. We have left, in search of another hostel.
Ludvig, Sweden - Oct 23, 2011
Great value for money, cheap and close to the train station, public transport and most attractions. Very nice rooms, clean and fresh. We had a room facing the yard so it was quiet at night. Only common area is the kitchen, but you're not in Rome to hang in your B&B anyway. Internet wasn't working :( Our hosts helped us with all we needed, including waking up at 4am to call a cab for us! They're really nice!
Juste, Lithuania - Jun 10, 2011
Nice place for few days, tidy,good location, only noisy street at night
Dyveke, Denmark - May 24, 2011
We only used the place for sleeping (went to the city all day).For that MammaMia was excellent! Friendly, helpfull staff. Nice, wellequiped rooms. Hot water. We strongly reccommend the place! A bit noisy (through the walls). A little hard to find the place when we arrived - just a very tiny sign at the door.
Danny, Germany - May 19, 2011
Room was ok - clean, enough space, small bath with a shower, tv and refrigerator. Despite the concierge looked a little bit freaky the staff was kind and trustworthy. The location is close to the colosseum (10 minutes walking distance) and to the next metro station (2 minutes). Good value for money ration.
aris, Greece - Jan 06, 2011
As for the position, the Mamma mia B&B is 10 minutes for the Colosseum, 1 minute for the metro station and 15 minutes for the train station and that is pretty good.
The receptionist was a very helpful person and he helped us with maps and directions.
The atmosphere wasn't very nice because the Mamma mia B&B looks like a house with rooms and not with hotel or hostel.
The hotel doesn't have a heating system or central heating so it was cold..
If you want a night life, pubs,clubs restaurants and so on the better place that you live in trastevere. From Mamma mia B&B to Trastevere goes only taxi at night and it costs 10-15 Euro.
Andrés, Spain - Oct 30, 2010
A great place to stay. Clean, cheap, close to the center... Much better than I could have imagined. I strongly encourage to book this place, which looks like a 4 stars hotel.
Egbertha, Netherlands - Oct 13, 2010
very nice hostel,nice people, in centrum, super!!! breakfast isn`t good but what do you expect for 2 euro
Ina, Bulgaria - Sep 26, 2010
The place is nice, clean and not far from Termini station and some of the sights of Rome as Roman forums and Colosseo. The staff is friendly too. I would stay there again.
Maria, Argentina - Jul 21, 2010
I would never recomended as the staff were very informal! They enter to your rooms all days and change everything of place! They are really unhelpful!
Hanna, Finland - Jul 08, 2010
Like a 4 star's hotel. This hotel is more like hotel. Very beautiful with all you need. The room was big and like in hotel. If you are looking for hostel,this is hotel, but price wasn't hotel's price. Near everything, little noisy, because the street with traffic.
Botond, Hungary - Jul 03, 2010
the room was very cool! They have A/C, clean private baathroom, private fridge, plazma TV. The stuff is very kind. I recommend it very much!
Janice, Germany - Jun 07, 2010
this hostels has the worst service ever. actually we ordered a 2 bed-private room because I'm pregnant. but when we arrived there the ministery was closing the whole hostel for a disinfection(!) as we were told. we were sent to another hostel (bad also), in which we get neither the same service nor price.
Hanette, South Africa - Jun 01, 2010
Pros: close to subway.Cheap.Elevator.Free Wi-Fi
Cons: our booking messed-up althought was confirmed telephonically 2 weeks prior. One toilet/shower for +- 20 people! Cannot recommend due to very long lines for bathroom (wait time +-45-60min) and very noisy cramped quarters.
Plamen, Bulgaria - Apr 07, 2010
Nice place to stay, great location, close to the historical center of Rome. Great value for the money. The street on which is situated is noisy all night and the traffic wakes you up in the middle of the night. For this price, definitely a good choice.
Simone, Netherlands - Apr 03, 2010
The owner seemed surprised when we arrived late in the evening. We had an reservation but he had to put an extra bed in the room, so we slept with 10 instead of 8 people. Hostel quite okey, our roommates not! Made a lot of noise late in the evening and even slept together in our room!
Angelique , Netherlands - Mar 31, 2010
When we arrived, MammaMia was fully b cooked. We were sent to Casa Omata which was actually better situated but far from clean. MammaMia on the other looked very nice. You can imagine our dispointment. The owner of Casa Omata made it up with a free breakfast and fresh coffee each morning. Well, you are in Rome, so don't complain to much, but beware of an overbooking even after their confirmation!
Jakub, Poland - Mar 21, 2010
Mammamia B&B hostel was irresponsible. I booked a place 3 months earlier and when I got to the place they send me to another Freestyle hostel without explanation. I booked a private ensuite with toilet but I got very small room with shared bathroom. Horrible!!!
Thi Thuy Lam, Vietnam - Feb 21, 2010
The room was excellent and the location also perfect: near Metro and only about 15min-walking distance to Colossio. Exept that it was very loisy cause the room located next to the street and I couldn't close the window properly. But one night wasn't a proplem.
Silvia, Spain - Feb 11, 2010
the reality is not the same as the internet photos. In the tween room, there are only two bad beds, two chairs, one table and a big plasm tv (the only realy good).
Petra, Slovakia - Jan 13, 2010
i think it´s very good hostel .. very clean and familiar,one thing i missed was fun inside the hostel,it´s better to people who want silente place...but i was very satisfied
Slaveya, Bulgaria - May 30, 2009
That is the best hostel I have stayed at. It's clean, at a good place and the stuff is so nice. All this at a really reasonable prices. I recommend it for sure ;)
Candis, USA - Apr 09, 2009
Staff kept our bags the last day so we did not have to lug them around. They are really close to the metro and the colusum which was nice. The place was okay clean. Other hostel guests smoked in the room though so that was gross. But it was really inexpensive so I was satisfied with what I paid
Ágnes, Hungary - Apr 07, 2009
Very helpful staff!
Aneliya, Bulgaria - Mar 25, 2009
It is an amazing hostel for its price level. People are great, always smiling and making you feel welcome. It is very close to the city center (15 min. walking distance from the Colosseum) and easy to reach from the airport. I'd love to stay there again! Thank you Mariana!
adrian , Mexico - Mar 19, 2009

MARIANNA, Poland - Mar 17, 2009
It is a fantastic place to take rest, great staff giving the character to the place. Great, great, great.
Jorma, Germany - Mar 16, 2009
What should I say about "Fun factor" and especially about "Personality"???
This rating points are the worst thing of the accomodation. In general it was quite good, but next time I would like to know before, if I had to change the bed!
Carlos Mauricio, Italy - Mar 03, 2009
Excellent!!! :D
Emilia, Italy - Feb 16, 2009
Eccellent.
Ricardo, Portugal - Feb 06, 2009
Thanks for ask!
I phoned the day previous (02 february) to confirmate the mine reservation, just like you ask, and the person who speak to me couldn't even said if the mine reservation was a double or single bedroom...(this to start).
We arrived on 16h30 - 03 february, and the person who receive us in MAMAMIA, said that the hotel have a problem with water and didn't have any room for us.
Then, he send us to a place of a friend of him, more or less 1,5 km from the MAMAMIA, but we refuse to stay there, because it was the most horrible place that we have ever seen, just like the room from the movie: Fight Club!!!
We want to claim the money that i have paid, because in first place, the hotel
MamaMia didn't have any room to receive us, and more, no one was capable to phone or send a e-mail to inform us, previously.

Very cheap and very nice hostel!!!! I enjoyed my vacation there! I was there with my friend. we had a private room! And we are sure if we want to go to Rome again, then we will be in the Mamma mia!!!!!
samuel, England - Feb 01, 2009
Leo (host) was a legend. Quilts had no covers, but generally the rooms were smart and tidy. I would recommend!!! Good value for money!!!
