I booked a room the day before, and this room was not held for me. I ended up staying in a bigger dorm room for the full price. Room was right above a dance club, along with a busy street. At least the receptionist persisted in getting me this bed; however I think the staff is more concerned with having fun amongst themselves till 2 am.

Good common room area. Individual decorations, good character which is very important. Bedrooms not that clean but good bathrooms.

Great Place. brilliant location a little bit away from the centre but easy to get in and Sternschanze has great bars and restaurants.

Hostel is in a good location and quite close to the city. One stop from the Hamburg Hauptbahnhof and 3 from the Airport. Beds are not great and pillow is flat as a pancake but overall they're satisfactory. There are lockers in each dorm but make sure you have your own lock and make sure it's small! I had a large lock and it didn't fit. Although you can hire a lock from reception. Deposit upon checking in for keycard is 20 euros, you get it back upon checking out but just be aware.
