Affordable hotel in Rome located in a lively/crowded neighbourhood?

Hi all! This will be in my first time in Rome.

I love hanging out in a public space or hangout places until late at night, and I'd ike a hotel located around such areas/neighborhood so 1) I don't have to walk through unsafe areas back to the hotel; 2) I can still feel the liveliness back in the hotel.

I don't know much about hangout/lively places in Rome. I heard area around Campo de Fiori could be real lively until late, but hotels in the area are quite expensive. My budget is up to 160 EUR at most; cheaper ones are appreciated.

I've looked up some hotel recs around Termini station area but according to some reviews it could be very unsafe at night, especially for Asians like.

Really appreciate some suggestions here. Thank you!
