Very conveniently located, with the downside that it was exceedingly noisy at night. Room (slept in a shared dorm) was quite warm, and the bathroom facilities did not smell amazing, although they appeared clean and well maintained. Staff were friendly and the building itself was quite nice, and I felt safe staying there.

First solo trip stay. Was a bit skeptical leading up to it however pleasantly surprised since the room was fab. Bunk bed was comfy and I fit being 6’4”,cubby hole to stash stuff with two usb ports for charging or a book etc. Showers just down the hall were clean and the shower had plenty of pressure behind it. Hostel bar downstairs was good fun to have a bit off a social. The location was great, on a metro line or a short walk from Alexander Platz (10-15mins) with good food options around the hostel Would stay here again totally

Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
The location is good, close to public transportation. I reserved single room, smelled bad, no ventilation and they don’t open the doors, since they don’t clean it or bring towels every day. No power outlet near the bed except loose USB, that keeps disconnecting.

I particularly liked the hostel's character and the location. The proximity to public transportation, while located on a relatively quiet street with plenty of charming places to enjoy a coffee or a branch within 1-2' walk distance. Breakfast was also great, with plethora of protein, carbs and vitamin-loaded options. And maybe I was lucky, but in these 3 days and nights I stayed there, every single staff and guest i saw in room, lobby and breakfast area were all looking and acting in a social and very sharp style.

Nice and easy check-in. Even easier check out. Right near the U8 line and multiple tram lines to get around town. The only downfall of room 201 was the first bunks seen when opening the door; the top bunk has a bad mattress (springs are too worn) and the USB charging ports don’t function.
