Not a hostel to get any sleep in. But excellent for the airport bus.
Hostel is on a busy main road, lots of traffic noise. Privacy curtains aren't well attached and don't block enough light. The beds are incredibly noisy and the room was hot and stuffy. Sheets not cleaned
Service was excellent. The man was so so friendly and kind. Kitchen well equipped. Free tea & coffee. Shower very basic and toilet was good. Just 2 showers and toilets for many people. ...
100E bus is 2 mins away. Metro, tram and bus all nearby. Tone of food options. Wifi was ok
Towel is 3 euros to rent. Bring your own padlock

Reception is late and does not work early in the morning. I went early to just store my luggage, and after waiting for an hour, there was no response, so I gave up on the lodging fee and made a reservation for another accommodation. There are too many people drinking and shouting at the entrance of the hostel, so it is a dangerous area. Never use it.

This was a lovely hostel. When we first arrived we were early for check in but the receptionist let us check in anyway! The staff were lovely and chatty. We got shown our room which was great. The beds were comfy and had curtains for privacy! The lockers had so much space which was brilliant. The toilet lights were a bit faulty and the wifi kept cutting out but apart from that it was a pleasant stay. The kitchen was well equipped with an oven, toaster, kettle, tea and coffee for guests, fridge and a cooker. When checking out they let us leave our bags after check out as we had a late train. The location is fantastic also. There are many shops nearby and you are close to the main attractions. It was so loud outside at night because there is a bar right below the rooms but it wasn’t an inconvenience! I would recommend this hostel to any travellers and would stay again!

While this hostel is centrally located and very affordable, it has major flaws that would not make me come back next time. First and foremost I couldn't sleep well as my room was basically situated just above a noisy bar with music and people shouting until very late in the night. Another flaw is the WiFi connection which is only usable if you stay in the living room, but it didn't reach my room. Also if you are in the top bunk bed you'll find it quite gimmicky to climb down and Im quite fit and athletic. Appreciated the presence of curtains and power socket in the bed but remember to bring with you a Hungary adaptor. The staff is friendly and welcoming.

Probably stupid to stay in a shared dorm during the pandemic and one of my roommates was coughing up a storm. It doesn’t help that management doesn’t enforce mask mandates. But the location is prime, the rate is low, and it is kept clean. Receptionist has the usual tendency to disappear bring your own towel.

Ik zou drie overnachten in het hostel ik krijg mijn kamer toegewezen het leek een hele andere kamer te zijn dat ik geboekt had ik had een eenvoudige tweepersoonskamer met een privé badkamer geboekt maar ik krijg blijkbaar en twinroom waarbij ik onze “privé badkamer” moest delen met iemand naast mij. dat was niet de bedoeling want ik zou een privé badkamer hebben die ik met niemand zou moet delen echter heb ik hem gewoon moeten delen met een ander daarbij zou er ook een parkeerplaats bij het hostel zitten voor maar acht euro per dag maar helaas vertellen de manager dat er geen parkeerplek is bij het hostel en ik moest vervolgens 10 minuten rijden om mijn auto te kunnen parkeren voor € 30 per dag in plaats van acht euro per dag. Ook zou een kluisje aanwezig zijn bij de receptie maar die waren helaas niet ze waren kapot ze moest een nieuwe bestellen en die waren niet aangekomen dus ik had ook geen ruimte om mijn belangrijke spullen achter te laten in een kluisje. De kamer die ik gekregen had (niet de oorspronkelijke kamer die ik geboekt had) bleek ook totaal niet op de foto’s die op de website staan als je een kamer boeken daarbij Rook de kamer erg vies en de gordijnen die er hingen waren veel te kort en de verkeerde kleur geel om het licht buiten te houden, ‘s nachts als je wilde slapen was het eigenlijk gewoon hartstikke verlicht met de lampen buiten op straat aan waren ook was er geen dubbelglas dus je komt letterlijk alles horen tot zeven uur ‘s ochtends ik heb daardoor niet kunnen slapen. Toen ik mijn kamer toegewezen krijg gaf ik aan dat dit niet de kamer is die geboekt had en dat ik recht heb op een privé badkamer daar heb ik voor betaald omdat ik het ook met niemand wil delen echter vertelde hij mij dat ik dat die kamer niet beschikbaar was En dat ik mijn badkamer gewoon met iemand anders moest delen maar wel gaf deze man aan dat het Hostel verkeerde informatie doorgeeft aan bijvoorbeeld website zoals ******* zodat je eigenlijk iets boekt wat ze helemaal niet aanbieden. Het enige positieve was dan ook dat deze man die daar werkt hartstikke vriendelijk was en eerlijk toegaf dat is dat zijn Hostel waar hij voor werkt verkeerde informatie doorgeeft en dat andere mensen het verkeerde kunnen boeken zoals ik gedaan had. Om deze reden raad ik dit hostel niet aan je wordt voorgelogen voordat je iets boekt je krijgt eigenlijk iets totaal anders en het is echt verschrikkelijk. Deze ervaring is ook de reden dat ik een dag eerder naar huis ben vertrokken en mijn verlies maar heb genomen.

Ostello economico, posizione ottima e molto comoda per visitare la città, è davvero in centrissimo. Il personale è gentile e c'è la possibilità di cucinarsi. A parte questo, tutto il resto è un disastro. Le stanze non hanno le serrande o tapparelle, ci sono solo tende impolverate che lasciano passare la luce (c'è un lampione esterno che riflette esattamente sulla finestra), e i rumori della strada e la luce non lasciano dormire. Gli spazi nelle stanze sono strettissimi, l' arredamento è vecchio e malandato e soprattutto è successo qualcosa che non dovrebbe mai succedere in un posto che dovrebbe invece ospitarti: è caduto l'armadio attaccato al muro esattamente sopra il letto, per fortuna in quel momento non eravamo seduti o allungati (sarebbe successa una tragedia). Potete osservare nella foto caricata, specifico che l'armadio non lo avevamo neppure riempito. Il personale ha poi rimosso l'armadio senza neanche scusarsi o capire la gravità dell'accaduto, ci ha detto che avrebbero parlato con il "boss" ma poi non ci hanno fatto sapere più nulla. Come da titolo: mai più.
