A great hostel, will gladly stay there again when I make it back to Budapest. The staff was hugely helpful, they booked tours and made dinner reservations for us. They are all Hungarian, but speak great English and are very willing to go out of their way to show you around. Loved this place, and the location cannot be beat.

The hostel was in a great location. Staff was helpful and very friendly. Our room was large and the hostel was quite. The free tea was awesome! The bathrooms had major flooding issues and the floors were always wet. All in all, not perfect but not a bad place to stay and I would probably go back. They left some free sketchy alcohol out for us to drink though... kinda strange.

I liked it. It's more like an appartement used as a hostel but good! (Most hostels in Budapest seemed like that). It was clean and the location was in the middle of town easy to get anywhere. Rooms and everything was ok as well. Laundry is expensive (8€), but they do it for you.

Stayed here with my boyfriend, was suprised to discover we were not staying in the hostel but an apartment five minutes away. This might have bothered us if we were travelling solo and wanted to hangout with other travellers, but worked well for a couple and was very comfortable. Staff were amazingly lovely, helpful and sweet.

they should put some kind of oil on the doors to avoid noise when we move them. This way they will not disturb people that is sleeping next to the doors and others. It's cheap and usefull, really an easy solution =)

Clean rooms, kitchen & bathrooms. Excellent location. Fantastic staff - very friendly & helpful. Common room can be a bit quiet - hard to meet people outside of your room. Great hommus place next to the hostel downstairs, cheap too.

The hostel was one of the best I have ever been in (and I have seen a lot). The hostel is right in the center with most things to see on walking distance. The major trainstation, were all lines meet, is on à 5 min walk.. Staff during the day is great, sometimes one of the owners does à shift and even brought me coffee :-).. I rated the staff as good instead of excellent cause most of the nightshift guys are à little grumpy.. Would definately come here again!!
