I stayed for one night because of a concert. I had to check in before midnight - after a concert it wasn't easy, 0-24 reception would be better. Got linen (in the middle of the night I wouldn't have wanted to make my bed..) then I had to go to another building! 3rd floor, without elevator.. It was a flat with more rooms. Toilet was ugly. Pillow was uncomfortable. Common kitchen, restroom, shower. The hostel has a lot of free things in the room like wi-fi, hair-dryers, tea etc. OK for 1night!

The only intelligent thing to do would be to stay away from this place which calls itself a hostel.

If you aren't expecting more that a bed an an almost clean shower for really cheap money, labyrinth hostel is the place to go... As long as I'm traveling on a low budget I would go there again. Really nice location, you can work everywhere within the center! Staff wasn't helpful at all, and our room wasn't a closed 8 shared dorm, but was open with 10 other beds.

Such a great location for a cheap price ! It's only 5mn walk from MuseumQuartiers which is in the very center. The room was also perfect, big enough for two persons, clean and with a good view. This is the only Hostel we went in Vienna but it is by far the best we have ever visited in Europe !

good location. just off the main shopping street in vienna. facilities are ok. they have the weirdest rules posted around though... e.g. 'DONT LEAVE THE WINDOW OPEN WHEN YOU LEAVE BECAUSE IT MAY FALL ON SOMEONE AND INJURE THEM' even though the french windows open INWARDS and not outwards... they are also weirdly strict about things like washing your clothes in the hostel. apparently if you do, and they catch you, there is a 15euro fine. just sayin'.

Expected worse - but fine for the price & location. Stayed in 10 bed mixed room (room D) - the only room of the big ones that was a room - I had to pass inside the other "rooms" to get into my room (terrible). Free wifi works fine, bathroom/cleanliness ok, no breakfast but coffee/tea to do all day. The place is really basic and quite poor. Bring your own padlock. At least location is good, and I could sleep well. Clean bed sheets. Reception not 24h.

Have visited a lot of hostels - and this is definately one of the best taking the price into consideration.

There was nothing that stood out to be about this hostel. Overall, my stay was okay, but I was staying in the 8-bedroom dorm, which could hardly be called a room, as it was more like a hallway that everyone passed through with beds on the side. I didn't like the fact that everyone could pass through my bedroom and it was very disturbing at night. The location is okay, nothing special. It's close to the U3, but still far from all the major sites. One plus: hot showers.

Hostel is clean enough but facilities are quite poor, There is free internet but a bit unstable in the room. Staff in the reception is helpful enough :-P It is quite basic, if you plan to stay longer than 1 or 2 nights, I'd said it could be a bit boring. :)

Simple but satisfying accommodations. I extended one night at the last minute, and had a chance to stay in a different location. It's cool that they have a few different locations around the same neighborhood. The first apartment had a very nice character, old apartment building with nice staircases. Free PC station was also helpful besides the free wifi connection in all areas of the apartment. Thanks!

Very good location and internet connection. The biggest problem is that reception is never open and whenever you need something, you have to ring the bell and someone is coming. Furthermore, if you store your luggage the day of departure, you can't pick it up later that the last check-in of the day. If there is a new guest who arrives late, you are lucky!

The staff wasn´t very friendly and explained everything so fast that you barely understand. The rooms are in different buildings and very old. They don´t clean the rooms everyday, they just take the old sheets away from the people who left that day. There is no common room where you can meet the other people in the hostel. There is a free breakfast but it´s not really worth it (bread, butter, marmalade, tea, coffee or hot chocolate) and you can´t buy anything cuz there is no room to store it.

Only the breakfast was a bit poor, but for the price we pay, everything else was very good.

The hostel is located in walking distance of all touristic places. The breakfast is simple but helps for the way to next café where you should defiitely take a second breakfast. The rooms are ok, the beds were comfortable and clean. The staff was not the friendliest but as you will get your own key you see them only fpr checking in and out. If you are looking for a cheap hostel I would recommand this place.
