Description said there was a free breakfast and unfortunately this was not true. This was the main reason I booked the hostel, so I was disappointed. I had been on the hostel website in the days before going, so this really should have been changed to avoid disappointment

With the new year we improved our breakfast and therefore it is not free anymore. Now you can choose from three types of breakfast. It is now changed on the website. We are sorry for any inconvenience.

Very nice place with excellent staff. If you want partying they have a great bar in basement with very friendly staff, if you want sleep you didnt hear the noise from bar. Good facilities in kitchen, they have there everything what backpacker need. Also the location is very good, only few meters from railway station and short walk from historic center. I definitely recommend this place!

Maybe a little bit loud if you're only planning to stay for a night, but the nice staff, location and price sure make up for it :)

My friend and I stayed here for New Years and had an excellent time, we stayed in a mixed 8 bed dorm, ensuite. The bed clothes,kitchen, towels, hairdryer and locker (with a key) were all provided free of charge. Both the room and bathroom were perfect, totally spotless. The atmospere in the hostel was excellent, the receptionists were really helpful and the bar downstairs has an unrivalled theme and is a great place to meet people, we made some great friends thanks to this hostel, it's a must!

This hostel was a nice place to stay. Located close to the train station. Very friendly and helpful staff. Free washing machine and dryer. Including a bar with a foosball table downstairs which is visited by slovakian guys, too. Luggage can be stored after check out in the hostel but it can't be locked inside. Unfortunately only very few sockets available in the rooms. (6 bed room with 3 sockets)

All the staff were very friendly efficient and knowledgable. The hostel was very clean and tidy. The bar was well stocked with spirits but would benefit from a choice of beer- suggest a local ie NOT a czech imported one. The muesli cereal choice was basic. Transfer to their sister hostel -which offers food could be sold more for any long term guests. Overall an excellent base to spend a few days .

decent hostel. at check in the guy was really stupid and had no idea what was going on. i later found out it was his first week of work there. everything else made up for that. and there rest of the staff were great. some of the bar staff took us to a reggae festival. certainly a memorable time here.

For travellers that are alone or in group this is the perfect hostel. Closed to main railways station and city center, and one bus way from airport. It is cheap. The staff is really friendly and helpfull. It can be a bit noise, but nothing special. I will came back for sure.

The staff was the best part. The hostel smelled of cigs since they let you smoke in the basement. I had a headache the entire time. Gross. They had free breakfast and free computers to use. They also had a small free washer very nice! The location isnt the best. Its by the train station though if you are using it. They upmarked the rooms for new years although we werent there for new years. They have showers with every toliet which is problematic if everyone is showering and you need to pee.
