Interesting and very eclectic place in the middle of the Reeperbahn with...unique decor. All rooms are themed - I stayed in the Playboy Bunny room and the Disney Princess room. Very helpful staff.

Fantastic location. I was quite shocked though by the porn-related interior...(handcuffs, lacquer boots, mirrors in front of the bed..). The staff is very nice and helpfull.

we stayed here the night before christmas, so it was much must quieter than usual. the hostel is lovely - cute and kitschy themed rooms, family run, extremely helpful staff (showed us where to go and what to see depending on what we were after - extraordinarily friendly! and hamburg natives). great location just off the reeperbahn. highly recommended! extra props to the lovely host that received us.

Hostel was lovely and warm. It was in the red light district so I was a bit concerned as I was travelling alone but this is a fun part of town. The bar was fun as where the staff. Nice central location. Watch out for pick pockets in the Xmas markets as I had my purse stolen!

I was kinda late for my arriving time and couldn't stay at first night in this hostel. Next day, they accepted my payment for only two days. The staff were helpful and tried their best. The dormitory room was alright. Smoking at the lobby was the only minus comment I would like to indicate.
