Okay so I have been back for a little over two weeks and I think that Maybe it is time that I start getting some of these reviews up. so I'll start tonight, don't know how far I'll get but here goes.....

Yellow Hostel in Rome
Superb. Great people that work there and a good location, 5 minute walk from Roma Termini. Clean rooms and Clean bathrooms. Though on the fifth floor the showers have low water pressure and cold water. Rooms are un air-conditioned but they provide an oscillating fan for each room. Do not pay extra for an air conditioned room it's not worth it. The AC does not work and they don't provide a fan so it actually end up hotter than the un air conditioned rooms. (I stayed in Two rooms one on the fifth floor and one on the Third)

Great atmosphere no bar downstairs but they do have a kitchen and 4 internet terminals and they sell beer behind the counter and once a week they make a makeshift bar in the common room and have a theme party...it was a "pimps and hoes" Party for us, but We didn't have any "pimp gear" so we dressed in togas......
