I felt very misguided about the condition of the hostel. I was unaware of the reputation of the St Pauli area and as a female traveling alone I did not feel safe in the area, or in the co-ed room. There was only ONE shower for two rooms (one of which had 8 people, the other was presumably the same). That's ONE SHOWER for 16 people, and only one toilet besides. The other houseguests were loud, rude and messy. The facilities and bedding were not the cleanest. The furniture was quite old.

This hostel is absolutely the awesomeness. The staff was great, the location is great, and everyone I met was great. I would stay here again.

Great hostel to stay in, really friendly staff and nice and relaxed, good location if ya don't mind walking ten or less minutes to the local transport. One of the best hostels i have ever stayed in, comfy, cosy and good to meet independent minded hostellers. Definitley to be recommended. Was recommended by East Seven in hosel in Berlin - high praise indeed.

Great location, St Pauli is a great area to explore, even though the Reeperbahn itself is a little tacky.

The way a hostel should be. Warm, friendly and great value for money (wi-fi, breakfast, locker). Very good location in cozy St Pauli, you're able to walk everywhere (10-15 minutes to Feldtstrasse, Markstrasse, St Pauli U-bahn, Fischmakrt, Wohlwillstrasse, Reeperbahn etc). Security is great because there are no keys, just codes. Just add the code as a random contact in your phone and you don't need to worry about any "real" keys when you're drunk on the streets of Hamburg.

The location is a short stumble from the major party area, yet is still nice and quiet. The bar, kitchen and common area are also good.

If you are headed to Hamburg staying at Backpackers St. Pauli is a must! Located about a 5 to 10 min walk from the Reeperbahn and a quick walk to the transit line. This hostel has very good wifi even in the rooms and an awesome kitchen/common room. Staff is really great and helpful! The location is great because you can rage on the Reeperbahn then come back to a quite neighborhood. Good vibe, great staff, awesome hostel.

hostel was nice but i cant say the same for the city of hamburg..i felt like i was the only tourist in the city. there were more street walkers than there were tourists in reeperbahn. well it was winter period when i visited but a city like hamburg could attract more people.

This is an nice hostel with a different style. The room is clean with individual toilet and bathroom. The staff is friendly and very helpfull, they gave us all information we needed about places to go, eat, where to avoid and everything. The cost is low for a good service.
