It's not an ordinary hostel, but good option for backpackers. Staff (owners) is helpful, but some difficulties may be with English, it's not perfect.

The security at the hostel is basically non-existent. Anyone can just walk into the hostel. There are no lockers so your stuff is just the lying there when you leave. That said, the family that runs the hostel does a pretty good job of keeping an eye on the rooms. Someone is always there. And the neighborhood is very safe so I never feared for my safety or that of my things. It is by far the cheapest deal in town so if you are on a budget I recommend this place.

The Caspian Hostel is more than a homestay than a real hostel but still it's a nice place to stay. It's directly in the city centre so you can go to all the main sights within 10 minutes. Having in mind that Baku is a very expensive city it's propably one of the cheapest places to stay

The owner speaks ONLY Turkish and Russian, NOT a word of English. The \'private room\' is actually connected to the dorm. The beds are a bit uncomfortable, and it is basically just an apartment. Nicely signed from the Meridian Hotel. Very close to Baki Saveti metro station. There\'s not really any information about Baku here, though, so you might want to ask the chain hotels for information. It\'s an ok place though. Especially given it\'s about the only hostel in Baku...!

The location of the hostel is perfect. It's in the Old City, close to all the places of interest in the city center. Nice hosts. There are: 1) a dorm with 4 bunk beds; 2) a room with a double bed separated from the dorm with a curtain, also giving access to the kitchen and the toilet. The floor in the rooms is lino, clean wallpapers, the beds are not very comfortable. The kitchen and the bathroom are covered with tiles. The door of the hostel doesn't lock, but the hosts are always there.

The rooms are not describe correctly online, the dorm room is actually 8 beds and connected with a curtain is a room with a double bed. You must go through the "private" room to reach the kitchen and bathroom however. Also the door to the hostel is not allowed to be locked, an there are no lockers. The family that lives there also feels it is okay to walk through the room day and night. This made us feel uncomfortable, as we were paying guests and had a right to our privacy. Overall good though.

Successfully booked a private room, but shockingly it was not available upon the arrival. Be ready to be placed in a mixed shared dorm even though u've booked the private one. Wifi available but u need to go to the balcony to use it. No privacy, even in the private room (guests need to pass the 'private room' in order to use the bathroom). Bathroom was clean though, but only one bathroom for all (> 10) guests. Good location. Friendly staff and keeper although little English spoken
