The Goat is great! All staff members were very kind, helpful and accommodating. The atmosphere is very relaxed and comfortable. The breakfast and coffee in the morning was a lovely treat!

A brilliant stay over New Year at Goat Hostel. Superb, friendly and informative staff who even make you a delicious coffee each morning if you want one! Nice location - a short walk to many main sights and very close to the Great Market Hall. Only slight negative is that the shared building entrance has a bit of a bad smell. I'm sure this would be easily sorted! All in all a great stay - would definitely recommend.

They were awesome! So kind and helpful, and it's such a cute cozy place. It feels like a little apartment and the lounge room is really nice and the theme of goats everywhere is adorable. It is so welcoming and I would definitely decide to come here again. The location is great, right next to convenience stores and some well priced restaurants and the metro of course. the bathroom with the 2 showers having some water heating problems, (extreme cold to extreme hot) but no complaints

I really enjoyed my stay at Goat Hostel. Ended up staying longer than planned. The staff were very friendly and helpful, and went out of their way to ensure a good stay in Budapest. I strongly recommend Goat Hostel to travellers of all types. Can't wait to go back someday in the summertime!

The favorite part was the staff (very friendly and helpful!). We loved that they gave us a map and tips about the city (which was great b/c we knew nothing about Budapest upon arrival). The staff were fun to talk with, and they let us leave bags at the hostel after checkout til our train departed. Only complaint - parts of the hostel were starting to look physically worn. Our carpet was missing pieces, paint chipping in the WC, etc. Also, clearer signs leading to the hostel would be nice.

Cosy with friendly staff, not for partying. Really easy to get to from the metro and walking distance to most places. They lock the goats up at night which is good otherwise they woudl eat your pants

I first picked Goat hostel for its location. But I am coming back in January for the reason that it possess the most amazing staffs. Pisti was very welcoming, kind, helpful, and... he saved my night... I was wasted coming back from Szimpla kert, and he, not only had to take care of me, is still very nice to me in the morning. Evi as well was so sweet, she let me rest even the check-out time has already passed... I had such a great memory with the hostel... definitely I would recommend to anyone

This is a very vey good place to stay while u visit Budapest. It's near the Main Market, the Gueller Montain and you also have a tram and metro to get the city center 1 minute away. You have supermarket right next to the corner and the staff is very close and kind. They help u out every time you need and even if you don't need it they tell u where to go out, what to see and where to spend you free time...The breakfast is included and is very good and enough. They have computers to use internet..

The staff were superb, friendly and helpful. The location is beautiful, especially in the double room, and there was easy access to Budapest. The best hostel we stayed in during our trip.
