Would I be able to find a hostel in Rome in August if I don't pre book?

Question

It seems that when I try and book over the internet the $15 rate bumps up to $25. It's not a Eruo conversion problem. Thinking about just showing up and finding a place. what say you?

Answer 1

Do not worry, there are so many hostels in Rome that you will find easily a place to stay!

Answer 2

you shouldn't have a problem, i live here, and rome is pretty dead right now!  (romans go on holiday for the month of august, so there's less tourists as well!).  have a great trip!
