This is a party hostel, if you plan on getting any sleep you would want to avoid this hostel. Plus you have to pay for internet.

The rooms were quite small when there were four people in them, but everything was very clean and the kitchen was wonderful and fully stocked but also small. The bathrooms were a bit of a strange setup and not clearly marked if they were male or female, but clean nonetheless. Great location as well.

It was very noisy because of the bar below. Next time I'll bring ear plugs ;)

Pretty good hostel! The hosts are very nice, the rooms and bathrooms are clean, and it is located right next to the Altstadt---we walked everywhere but the Coloseum. The only issue we had was the noise outside and that of the other guests. Recommended!

Gentleman at front desk was super friendly and welcoming. He was very helpful when I lost my power adapter. Great location; only a few minutes walk from the train station and very close to all the main attractions. One of the cleanest, best equipped kitchens I've ever seen in a hostel and the rooms and bathrooms were also clean and comfortable. Great hostel and very reasonably priced. Thanks for a nice stay!

Great location but wouldn't stay here again! Walls are paper thin, can hear everything going on in the bathroom ( which was next door) and the corridor. Speaking of bathrooms, the shower scalded me win hot water every time someone flushed the toilet, which was five times at 7 in the morning! Close to the train station and city centre at least. Free popcorn is a nice touch.

The sound proof of the windows should be improved.

Awesome location - right in the old town and less than a block from start of main shopping/market areas. The owner was really nice - very accomodating, friendly, and personable. The rooms and bathrooms were basic, but clean and functional. The kitchen is a bit small, but extremely well equipped with any type of food preparation device that you could want. There was also a very nice and very large flat screen in the kitchen for viewing with supper. Overall - a really great experience!

Very nice, exceptionally clean hostel with friendly staff. I arrived after midnight, and even after waking up the staff he has been nice and polite. I booked a 4 mixed dorm, the rooms are small, but contain everything you need. I liked the fact that there is a window you can open, and that there is a water kettle in the rec room. The Location is great, 1 min from the city centre, and the street the hostel is in is quiet and calm. Thank you so much, it has been an awesome stay!

Clean, cute, nice staff, excellent location, equipped kitchen - couldn't really ask for more except that the one computer terminal decided to break down the day we arrived. There is an inexpensive internet cafe not far away though so this wasn't a disaster.

The hostel was nice and clean, and the hostel staff were very friendly and helpful! The hostel is also perfectly situated in the Altstadt, and almost everything is within walking distance.

I would recommend the hostel for its superb locatioin and cleanliness. It's right in the middle of downtown, it was unbeatable. The receptionist was exceptionally nice. Otherwise, the hostel smelled like cigarettes all the time, and during the first few days of my stay, there were some weird people. A clown for example, I didn't know why. It was hard meeting people, maybe because I went during late March, a low season?

We came in very late at night and stayed in a double room(2 person). Having traveled and stayed in hostels in 12 countries at this point, I felt like it was quite expensive for no amenities---Internet was pay-by-the-hour and expensive at about 2.50 euros, regular sized towels were 4 euros and breakfast was way overpriced so we didn't eat there. Aside from the expense, the rooms appeared clean, showers clean, and the location was great. I'm sure the dorms were a better deal, but still pricy

This hostel was pretty good. I only stayed one night, and did not use the shower just because I was in a hurry, but the bed was comfortable and worth the money. I prefer when toilets are in individual spaces with no openings in the walls and these were not. There were openings on top of the rooms which connected them together. Not that big of a deal for most people though. They service was helpful, they did not speak very much English, but enough to be able to communicate with me. Good overall!!

Clean, bright,great location. Only drawback was no "common room"...just a very small kitchen with uncomfortable stools/tables. No laundry facilities. Pretty minimal breakfast offerings, but lots of great cafes nearby.
