Lonely Planet Review

A perennial favourite with backpackers, the Pop Inn is laid-back, lively and a little tatty round the edges. Rock music fills the common rooms and the multilingual staff are friendly. Beds are available in dorms or private rooms with/without en suites.

Bunk down any closer to Termini and you'd be sleeping on the platforms. Ideal for those with an early train, this friendly hostel is strong on atmosphere, less so on facilities. There's no kitchen for example, and bathrooms are shared between about 15 people, meaning morning queues; the hostel's also not the quietest. However, the international English-speaking staff are young and fun, the beds in the mixed dorms (under 35s only) are decent enough and the upbeat mood is infectious. College students won't feel out of place here although the yellow corridors might jar with raging red-wine hangovers. Notable extras include free Internet (there are two PCs in the smallish common room), nightly movies and breakfast available 24 hours a day at a bar next door.
