Amazing property. It is over a metro line, so there is a little vibration/noise when the train runs. Only negative. Staff is excellent and property is very clean. Rooms and bed are new and clean. Good mattresses.

The place location is good and clean. What bothered me most was because it doesn't tell you that the private bathroom aren't attached to the room, you have to walk to use it, . Everything else is nice

Great find

Great set up for the private rooms. Clean, modern, comfortable. The window overlooking the street does let in sounds when people are being loud on the street. It was fine during our stay though.

Want sheets? That’s an extra charge. A Towel, that’s extra too. Want to secure your items in the locker, use the laundry? All that’s extra. All you get is a bed and mattress for the cost. There are 3 Toilets and sheets for men and 3 for women, so when the hostel is full you will have to wait.

Hip Karma Hostel was a great place to stay! We were a group of 14 people so booked the 8 bed and 6 bed rooms (both private - only us). The bathrooms are shared with everyone in the hostel but we had no issues with this - they were kept clean and tidy, and no queues. The only issue we had was that you have to pay for bedding (not included on booking), and even though we booked the whole room, we weren’t allowed a key to the bedroom. The person at reception had to keep opening the bedroom door for us every time. Luckily there is someone on reception 24/7, but for security reasons, it was a bit uncomfortable as anyone could say they are in that room. But overall, a great stay and would come again as a big group.

Rustic and Nice.

The booking was very last minute. It’s a nice place that’s a bit rustic and bohemian but not a people factory like other hostels in the area. The staff are very nice. There’s a kitchen to cook if you wish and a great terrace in the back of the building.
