Only suggest dropping by if you are staying at the hostel associated with it. Chairs are not exactly comfy but they get the job done. There are no vending machines or a place for coffee or anything. Just wifi, some desks and chairs. Gets real cold in the winter too as it doesn't seem to be heated all that well. Another complaint is to have to travel to the hostel across the road to go to the washrooms. Overall, definitely not worth paying to use this space.

Si bien el espacio es amplio y comodo, casi no tiene ningún servicio dentro, ni para calentar un cafe o algo parecido, el wifi a mi parecer es malo, trabajo con una VPN para mí país y con ese wi-fi se me hizo casi imposible trabajar. Medía hora esperando para que prendan el aire acondicionado. En comparación con otros lugares me parece que no vale el costo. Son 15 EU de 8 a 14 (es ese horario, no es que te den 6 horas para trabajar) o 20 EU todo el día.

Absolutely not worth the price. Chairs are uncomfortable, desks are ok. Toilets are on the other side of the street, no coffee machine and slow response from reception.

Asked before paying if air conditioning was on and they told me that it is. Walked in to a warm room and AC off.

Edit: 1 hour after asking for AC and 2 hours after paying, the AC is finally on.

15€ la media jornada (8 a 14). Es un poco incómodo que solo tenga un baño y esté dentro de la sala de reunión, por lo que todo el mundo pasa mientras estás con la puerta cerrada. Igualmente el wifi funciona bien y las instalaciones son modernas

Onestamente non capisco le recensioni così negative degli utenti precedenti.
"Non c'è acqua né caffé": a 20 metri c'è una fontana pubblica da cui poter bere (leggasi anche "zero plastica" se vi portate una borraccia); per il caffé sono d'accordo, ma insomma: €1, €1.20 al bar non mi sembra un costo eccessivo.
L'unico neo probabilmente è l'assenza di macchine da snack, ma a 100 m c'è un Pam (supermercato) dove rifornirsi. E' vero, €15 per mezza giornata sono forse eccessivi, ma siamo pur sempre in centro a Roma.
"Fa freddo": ci sono due condizionatori e il telecomando è a portata di tutti.
"Per il bagno devi andare alla reception": vero, se la stanza meeting è occupata. Altrimenti si può benissimo usare quello (e comunque, si tratta di 10 metri di distanza).
Sarà che ho basse aspettative io, sarà che mi trovo bene anche con poco, ma secondo me si tratta di un servizio onesto.
Tra l'altro, per stare l'intera giornata, il costo sale a €20 ma ci si può stare dalle 8 alle 23.

It's a good place if u want to sit and work, more like a Library but they charge - not economical but affordable.
Drawbacks : no food facility on Sundays , u need to go outside to get food which is pretty expensive
" THERE'S NO CAFE MACHINE " well if they had one inside the study room , i would have rated them with 4 stars.

The space has some (unused) potential, but it is definitely not worth the price they charge at the moment.
15€/half a day and: there's no coffee machine, no tea, no bathroom (you have to go to the reception of the hostel across the street).
Internet connection was often down. Even if for just a few seconds, that's not ok for a coworking.

I used the space because it was included in the hostel price, and it was ok for only one day, but I wouldn't go there often and I would definitely never pay that price to use it.

Good for studying, bad for work. I agree with most reviews left before mine: no tap water in the office, slow connection at around 30-40mbps which of course is the worst thing, cold temperature at least today, no proper office chairs
