If you are looking for a good time in Bucharest, this is where you should stay. Just a few minutes of walking will get you to the nightlife, the shopping district,

Awesome party hostel! Walking distance to all the interesting stuff. I highly recommend the hostel's bar crawl. Don't expect to get to bed early here - there is a party every night and it get be quite boistrois late into the night. Great value for money, and the people are amazing!

Nice place! Surely is ready for the party seekers in the summer. Loved the draft beer in the downstairs bar (especially the price)! Easy to get to and close to the coolest part of Bucharest! Thanks X I'll be back.

Showers weren't really clean, Room also could have been cleaner (lots of dust, bed and linens were a bit dirty). Very hot in the room since there was not enough air coming in from the window

Very clean and nice building, helpful staff and very good bathrooms and toilets. The pub downstairs is nice, but to noise if you need a rest.

good location, nice bed, but was not what they made it out to be. no one there to chat to, big empty place. maybe it was just the time of year (late april), but there was nothing happening. ended up going to another hostel. loved the ping pong table though xx

It was a real disaster.. I am not the kind of person who likes to disssaprove easily, but in this case i need to warn you: The staff doesnt know about places to vivist in the city....they told me to go to a tourist center. They also dont have a taxi number if you need a shuttle somewhere. All spaces were smelly...really bad, like they had problems with the sewer or somthing..And the enter door is always unlocked..so it is very unsafe!! There´s no staff during the night!! a disaster!!

A great place for partying backpackers. The rooms and bathrooms are large and the price is very reasonable. Close to shopping, restaurants, and nightlife no need to pay for transport within walking distance. Bar in hostel is great place to meet people and start the night. Many times the bar goes out as a bug group so you get to meet a bunch of extraordinary travelers. Staff is helpful and accommodating. There are individual lockers for safely storing valuables. Area is safe and never felt unsafe

This has the potential to be a great place when everything is working. We were unfortunate to be there when there was work being done by the council outside and a couple of times the water wasn't working but it wasn't a real problem. Also the bar area wasn't open because of the work outside the hostel but it was up and running when we left. However this place was excellent for visiting Bucharest and if I were to go again, I would definitely stay there again. The private rooms are very nice.

We stayed for 2 days and there isnt water during the whole day. The kitchen and the bathrooms were dirty. The bedroom was very dirty: there was hairs and fluff on the pillow and blankets. Nobody clean our bedroom. The bunk bed was out of joint. We had a problem with my booking, because the staff didnt log it. They gave us only one key for 12 people. The locker was broken. There isnt a common room. Regardless, it was in a good place.

The hostel worker had a relationship with one of our flat mates and entered our room at crazy times of the nights and woke us all up. Had 100 euros stolen from the "safe" lockers. Overall, one of the worst hostels ive been in

Everything about the hostel was great. The location was perfect and was a central location for everything. The staff was awesome and helped with everything. Rooms and bathrooms were clean and well maintained. They have a great bar and very big common room. I will defiantly stay at x hostel if I'm ever in Bucharest again. If you are looking for a great time and to meet people, then x hostel is the way to go!

this hostel has potential, but maybe we were just there at the wrong time of year, it definitely did not have a party atmosphere, more of a hungover atmosphere! heating wasnt working, bathrooms were dirty and smelled. Although I do thank the staff for giving us access to the private rooms for hot showers. The heating didn't work either which was a bit of a let down. Although hostel in perfect location, close to old town, bars, shopping and metro.
