Staff were very accomodating when I had a change of plan and decided to leave one night early. Gave me a 50% refund, very reasonable.

The staff were lovely and very helpful but the location is terrible. I'm a fast walker and it took over 40 minutes to get to the city centre along a horrible busy road. The hostel is clean but the bathroom was awful - the shower tray was not sealed so water leaked everywhere during a shower. This ment that the floor was always wet and grubby. The Friends hostel is not a party place and there isn't a communal area. I use hostels as a way to meet people so i didn't have a good time at this one.

Location was great for us - close to the train station, but a fair distance from the heart of Bucharest. This was the best thing about the hostel. Otherwise, the rooms were cramped and the staff and atmosphere were lacking.

Very close to train station, about 10 minute walk, and only about a 20 minute walk to People's Palace and the center of Bucharest. Average breakfast, laundry is 15 lev but you get free soap. Friendly staff.

the staff had no clue what they were doing half the time - i had to ask for as locker and where the kitchen was and bathroom and they did not inform me of breakfast another person staying there did. the room was really hot and we had to ask for a fan.
