I really enjoyed the hostel--the beds are nice, the breakfast is decent, and it's nice that they show The Sound of Music! Like others, I would only complain about the Internet!

Pretty good hostel. Comfortable beds and good facilities. I'd stay here again and recommend to others.

Best hostel we have been to so far! Super clean and the people were a lot of fun. Wifi doesn't work upstairs though so we spent most of our time downstairs in the bar. That was a good thing and a bad thing but it was a lot if fun. There were no quiet evenings.

We had a great time! Everyone was so nice, the rooms were clean, and it was close to the center of the city and the river. Our stay was great until the last night when a bartender was rude and condescending, but other than that we had a great time.

Good hostel with a very good and kind staff. It is possible to do breakfast and dinner in the hostel, which is a good thing, the rooms and beds are comfortable, lockers works well. A couple of low points were the position (non so close to the city center as it seemed from reviews, but also it wasn't so far) and the showers (very tiny spaces)

hi there. thanks for the feedback. the official innercity starts at mirabell-gardens which is a max 3 mins walk from the hostel. having the hostel even closer to the city would have the effect that the hostel is farer away from the trainstation. more space in the showers would mean less showers in total...

no wifi in room, staff a little overworked.

hi there. thanks for the feedback, we want the people to be downstairs to social with other backpackers and countries, thats why the signal is much stronger downstairs. true taht we're overworked sometime but that's just a great signal for our customers how busy we are even during spring-season :)

All the rooms are very small and uncomfortable, it is impossible to sleep at night because there are so many people who come and go at any time. The price of 18 € for night is exorbitant for the services offered (only one sheet)...NEVER AGAIN IN THIS HOSTEL...DON'T GO THERE!!!!

hi there. thanks for the feedback. in case you dont want to stay with others in one room, why not book a hotel next time? you could have asked for a second sheet without any probs. dont get how you can define "all rooms" as abviosly you just stayed overnight in one of more than 40 different rooms. save travells anyway

Nice and fairly modern building situated between the main station and the city center. Clean and neat rooms, decent size locker that works with a key card(same as door). Main drawback was only a single power outlet for the whole 6 person room. In these modern times many carry a smart phone that requires daily charge.

Yoho hostel is a very nice hostel. I lived in the female dormitory for 2 nights. They have individual and separate toilet and bathroom inside the room and they are very clean. Besides, it is situated between the train station and the city center. So it is very convenient for travelers. And I would definitely recommend it to other travelers.

Great location, only a few minutes walk to the old town and sites, great showers too, and a great bar where it's really easy to meet people!

WIFI is not really working on the third level. Bathrooms are excellent - spacious and clean. Kitchen could be equipped with more stoves though, one is reallyyyyyyy not enough.

Staff were very friendly, although a little over-defensive/pushy at times (I overheard some responses to other people complaining about the slowness of the WiFi, for example). The rooms were very clean & had all the bare necessities you need in a hostel room. The towels we rented were not so clean - mine was full of pubic hairs, not exactly what you expect when you pay extra to rent a towel! Overall, we had a great experience, though - location was fairly central & in a pleasant area of town.

The only real thing wrong with this place is the kitchen. They advertise a kitchen, but there is only one hot plate, so you can cook pasta or soup really. It wouldn't deter me from staying again though, the bar downstairs is fun and the staff are really nice. You can also set up any excursions you need at the hostel.

hi there. thanks for the feedback. we simply dont have much room to get a bigger kitchen. we swopped over the name to tea-kitchen :)

Easy to find from the train station, the staff was very helpful in offering suggestions for walks around the city. Sound of music plays every night in the dining room and there are always people in the bar. Bartender was a little rude to us when we connected to wifi after not having contact with anyone for over a week. Seemed unnecessary to make such a big deal about it.

We spent two nights in a private room. We had a nice stay in this hostel, it is well located, close to the centrum, to the railway station and to supermarkets. It was expensive, especially if we consider that we had to make our beds. However the staff was helpful, the place is clean, but wifi signal was very weak, making it unusable. On our second morning we tried the breakfast which was also good.

great place, clean, well located. The only problem is the poor wifi signal upstairs and that they dont have enough electric outlets to plug in your camera or phone. But man, those are only details that I hope they improve. Everything else is good.

hi there. thanks for the feedback we want the people to be downstairs. thats why the sifi-signal is much better downstairs. the less amount of plugs is a term of security-reason as many backpackers simply leave theif stuff unatended upstairs. save travells
