The outcome of my overnight stay in a not very clean room at the Hotel Positano, in late November 2008, was 39 bed bug bites. The bedcover had stains, the bathroom mirror light was not working . A request for a refund has so far been ignored. more

I missed a flight, and got back to the city centre needing a bed from midnight until 4 am. There's a load of cheap places around Termini statio - first few were completely full (it was almost almost midnight, late on a Saturday evening). Positano had a 3-bed dorm, which had only one person in it. Guy at reception was... more

We found the Hotel Positano by asking for a recommendation at the Beehive, a Rick Steves' recommended hotel. The location was fantastic, blocks from the Termini train station in Rome, but the hotel was just average. The room, particularly the bathroom, wasn't the cleanest and smelled strongly of urine. But, the bedding and linens were clean, the price was right... more

We stayed at the Hotel Positano in Rome this past Saturday night, June 23rd. It was fine! And the location is only about 4 blocks from Rome Termini in a nice part of town; there were several trattoria with outside seating in our immediate vicinity. Our room on the first floor with four beds was spartan(looked like a hospital room)... more

The bathrooms are filthy, there are no mirrors and the shower doors are hanging off so the bathrooms flood. we had trouble locking and unlocking our door, but when reported to reception the staff were unhelpful and may made no attempt to sort the problem out. There's only one key for every shared room, and the bedrooms were not cleaned... more

I have stayed in Hotel Positano several times and I find that the staff has been quite friendly and helpful. However, my advice is to avoid rooms on the upper floors without private bath because the shared bathrooms are kept in a horrendous state. Rooms with private bath on lower floors are quite good and are a good value. The... more

I thought 65 E a night with bath was a good deal, but I must recomsider. The staff were indifferent to rude. My room was dark, airless and grubby. The bedcover was filthy. The TV did not work, the haidryer had no hose, and the place smelled of old sox. The location is excellent, but that is about all I... more

This hotel was in a pretty good location near the train station. There were also many good restaurants in the area to eat at and a couple of very convenient combination Laundromat/Internet Points nearby. The staff was very friendly and helpful and the room was decent. However, the shower was gross and mildewy and did not drain well. Our whole... more
