Check this review. For the price I paid I have to give it 4-5 stars, though I paid only $8.00 by pre-booking via a booking platform months in advance. Others in my room paid over double, and for the price they paid - I absolutely wouldn't recommend. Location is excellent and staff are fine, though there are serious issues with this place, namely that the WiFi is basically the worst WiFi thus far on this Latin trip.

Excellent indeed. Staff were exceptional as was the location and interior design. For the price paid it has to be 5/5, though there were a lot of mosquitos and the WiFi didn't reach the shared dormitory. Would still recommend 100% regardless of the latter points though.

Excellent service for my booking at least. I was checked-in efficiently and issued a twin room ensuite with soap and a towel included, and this was issued irrespective of the sub $10 dormitory I booked. I'm assuming this is because of low season and the comparable quietness of Aguas Calientes at the time. Nonetheless such service is always appreciated. The WiFi was decent, and the bedroom and bathroom clean. There were also two lockers in the room. The shower water was cold though and after I ch

Absolutely Superb! Well-designed interior layout with 1 dormitory and a group of twin-rooms. The facilities were clean, with the bathrooms incorporating 3x showers / 3x toilets and the central area offering a kitchen/dinning room and a cosy lounge area. Location is central with the hostel situated on a quiet street with on-site parking. The staff were friendly and spoke English too. Would recommend 👍🙏

Excellent location in the heart of a very nice neighbourhood. The building design is very novel indeed, however the dorm room wasn't very aesthetically pleasing and there were no communal computers as the pictures showed. It was however worth the price paid for the location and design.

I can't really see this place functioning as anything other than an overflow for when the other hostels are full. The location is terrible (the map distance won't show you the huge steep hill you have to trek up in the blazing heat to get there). For the same price and indeed cheaper you can find better options. The host that was there was extremely friendly and very helpful, however the place is basically abandoned at the moment and the bathroom wasnt at all clean. Hopefully things improve :D

Excellent (if not perfect) location and extraordinarly clean and tidy. Doubtlessly the best bet in town at this moment. The hostel layout was also pleasing as was the breakfast which added to the value. 3 out of 4 staff were great, however the fourth has a repulsive attitude that should warrant discharge. I moved hostels as a consequence. Sometimes volunteer staff forget their place...

Hello! I'm sorry to hear that you did not take your conversation with our staff member well. He did in fact represent the feeling of our hostel as a whole. You're repeated racist comments to all staff, guests, and friends out at bars absolutely warranted a conversation about acceptable behavior. Racist, sexist, homophobic, and all other rude comments are not accepted here, even if you claim them to be "British humor."

So impressed! Best hostel in the USA so far! What a beautiful atmosphere. So many lovely people, and the most generous breakfast I've yet to experience. The hostel is situated in a very fancy area, the photos do not do it justice. It is really nice inside; very cosy indeed with free drinking water, communal computer use, a generously priced vending machine, tv and piano! The mens bathroom was intelligently planned out and very clean. The staff were professional and kind. I am extremely pleased.

Bathroom was impressively clean. Room was adequate, social space was for now, restricted to the outside area - and more shade is required tbh. Check-in process was the worst I've ever experienced - it was dehumanising. You're asked to wait on a cross outside a steel door passing ID and payment through a letterbox whilst being judged and monitored on CCTV. You're then given your sheets, only then to have to walk back onto the public sidewalk in full view of everyone to enter via a back door. Bad!

Value for money 10/10. can't make complaints when the price is ace! Nonetheless, the pillows need to be replaced for obvious reasons :D The bed smelt quite a bit. Aside from such the outdoor area/bar was great, and even under the national restrictions, this place still has a great vibe. Its located opposite a park; perfect space for hostels; hence why there are three others nearby as-well-as lots of parking. The kitchen was great, and the dorm had AC. nice open plan place. Will return!

Still open, May 2020! Tres Mundos is a quaint and characterful Hostel/cafe/Bar, a few minutes from the beach and main boulevard. The hostel itself comprises of a super chill BBQ roof terrace as-well-as an open ground space with bar/tables and food facilities (delicious and cheap food btw). Me and some friends ventured down from Cancun for some extra contrast, and Tres Mundos made the trip worthwhile. The Slovakian owner is great dude, as were the other staff and guests. Well worth visiting!

Well worth the price paid. It is difficult to be critical when the value is so immense, so I'd rather just give a few points to the hostel management that may up their ratings a tad more. The Male (and likely female too) showers were blocked. Even when wearing sandals or flip-flops peoples feet are prone to infections, so you need to insure drains are unblocked. Also the dorm floor was never cleaned. Aside from this, the facilities were new, the roof terrace was fab, and the staff great!

If you plan on exploring S.E. London this place is the base of a budget - but not in a negative respect... Hey, you've gotta be commonsencial - if you're paying such penny's in London you really can't expect anything more than a bed and water - and you get more than that here. The pub itself is one of the best alternative/hippie music venues about the city, yet it remains elusive from tourists and "city folk" - this is a "real-London" pub. Accommodation is basic, but clean and with hot water.

Great Value for Money! Tasty Fresh mountain water on tap - in the dorm also. The showers were clean and powerful with hot water all day long, and the general surrounds were spacious and comfortable. Camping is also an option for 5 Lari with full use of facilities. The only negative was the mattress which was terribly uncomfortable; but as a whole, the place was super!

Good value for money and very secure.The room was nice, however I'm not sure my sheets were fresh and the showers were quite old and dirty...the basin was blocked in one, and the door had broken off on another.The wifi is free in the top floor common area only, otherwise you have to pay extra.The location is superb and I likely would stay again.The staff were not friendly.

By far the kindest hostel owner ever!! I spent 3 nights here, and enjoyed every minute of it :) the hostel is filled with character, and charismatic charm.The facilities, Location, cleanliness and breakfast are spot on! Theres also lots of information everywhere about travelling to Albania,Greece,Bulgaria and all of the different sites with Macedonia, the amount of knowledge is tremendous :) This goes down as one of my al-time favourite places, and I will no doubt be back again, it's great!

Well Well Well....So many rights, but some very bad points! The location is quite good, the hostel layout is perfect, and the place is super clean! Breakfast is also available throughout the day...cakes, cereal, jams etc. This is all good, but the big big problem is the staff.....there are no staff, in fact over the weekend I didn't see them, even existing guests had to check new guests in who had bookings and would ring the bell continuously.Big security Issue! How are towels not included?????

Thoroughly recommendable!!!

This hostel has a great atmosphere and lots of character, the staff are lovely, and the hostel is very fair, for instance the laudry is 2 Lari, or free if you stay at least two nights.However..their were only 2 toilets for over 40 people and two showers which are together in a shared open bathroom.I would stay here again fir the atmosphere, but there are better and cheaper hostels elsewhere.

As a space the hostel is appealing, with clean comfortable airey rooms and we'll kept furnishings.Unfortunately the hostel was unlocked and staffless upon arrival, and so myself and two others waited for over 1 hour.The hostel is poorly signposted and the stairway is dark and dangerous at night.The location is poor and the staff were not easy going, however pleasent . I wouldn't stay again.

18th Jul 2015

One of the worst hostel experiences of my many years of traveling! Firstly, when you pay for a bed, you expect to be able to sleep to a certain extent...not here.Under the floor of the cheap dorms there was a live gig and almost touching the windows outside were two huge amps and speakers .The hostel had no atmosphere whatsoever, and was by far the most impersonal place ever.Run like a business, there was no vibe or character and the manager was rude and nasty!!! Don't stay here!

We are so sorry for mentioned issues! As you were our guest in our Budget option, you should ask from reception to provide you with give you a bed in regular option. T&S Budget is more party Hostel, with nice Bar in basement. Majority of guest there are youth searching for party and a great fun! :) Both options have the same standards of cleanliness (cleaning agency in charge), so we will investigate what had happened! Hope to see you again! :)

Staff were super friendly, and genuine.This hostel is certainly great value for money, even if the location is a tad away from the center, and the kitchen facilities rather below average. It should further be noted that the pictures on the website are nothing like the reality and must be incredibly old.However, I would recommend this place, as the atmosphere was nice and the beds etc were clean.But I've seen the basement 4 bed dorm and I wouldn't be happy if I were staying there!

One of my favourite hostels of all time.Why?....well I'm actually a little unsure myself; It simply felt right, perhaps like falling in love.The place itself is very simple, and consists of an open plan kitchen/lounge area with a cosy outside terrace, along with clean, well equipped bathrooms.The price is a tad higher than rival hostels, however the location is grand and breakfast, although minimal (a tasty croissant) adds to the charm.It certainly has everything one needs.Worth staying at!

Unfinished you could say and still under construction.My first point, and the most important (due completely to imaginative stupidity) is that there were bed bugs! I was bitten over ten times that night (and still itching now).The mattresses are layed out on wooden industrial palets in an old wooden attic, on a large piece of old vinyl; A PARADISE FOR BUGS AND INSECTS! The positive is the great location and brand new and clean bathrooms, but they have no idea how to run a hostel.No signs either!

View Property Reply

Hello and thanks for a review and some good words but you are the only one who had such a problem with bed bugs. There are NO BED BUGS at all in here! And you said "thanks and see you" without mention about this upon your staying and check out also! Many guests like our mattresses over wooden pallets - they are really comfortable! Mark from the reception!

Ok, I really can't fault this hostel.But would I stay here again?....No is the answer.My reasons are simple.On paper this hostel is the perfect catch.With great facilities, lots of people, kind and attentive staff; such an option is surely perfect... right?Well, if your a cautious first time teen, an unadventurous weekender, and of course....a euro boozer; this is certainly the place.However if your looking for non-commercial, "real" charm, then you should look elsewhere.Not my cup of tea.

The staff were great fun and full of personality, which gave the place a nice vibe.As it's new hostel, everything was clean, tidy and well organised.This hostel's greatest strength is the wifi; there are three seperate connections, one on each floor, which all seem to be incredibly powerful.Although the location isn't the best, the road outside leads straight to the city centre.This is a perfect hidehout for the cultured tourist, not for the boozers.I would stay again for sure!

Thank you very much for your review! Proper maintainance of the hostel and it's facilities is one of our priorities. We are not in the very downtown of the city but in prestigious neighborhood of Sofia. Vitosha broadwalk and National Cultral Center is just 15 mins by feet.

In all honesty, this place is massively overrated.How it received such high ratings (the reasons why I picked it) is strange to say the least.The staff were miserable & unfriendly, with a 24 hour frown.Although the rooms are bathrooms were very clean, their was no PC to use (as stated on hostelworld) and only 1 shower had hot water.Their was also no atmosphere and the location wasn't great.Their are far better options out there!

Best option in Phnom Penh, and I stayed at the the top three, i.e, The White Rabbit (Don't stay here) and Me Mate's Place (also very good).As I highlighted in my review of the latter hostel, Me Mate's Place & Lovely Jubbly are both run by the same company, and I have to say, they have done a pretty decent job.Price wise, value for money is superb and I promise you, you shan't find anything as good elsewhere in the city.This is my personal favorite, and I do indeed recommend it.

Great atmosphere for sure, great location, situated literally right, slap bang in the city centre.Definitely a more party orientated hostel, so the quieter ones may not approve of such a hostel, however I myself am not a travelling boozer, and I thought it was a great place to stay.To be honest, how picky can one be when backpacking on a budget, especially when there are options like this for around $3, I mean come the F on.Totally a place worth staying at.

Pretty good for Myanmar standards.The word "Good' sums this hostel up for sure, not excellent, not average but "Good".I feel that for once I really can't elaborate, for every aspect was fine, it did the job and it did it in a manner that was, well...,Good!....Oh, I should add that, if you stay here and return at some other point, you receive $1 off, which is quite..........wait for it.........GOOD

In all honesty, it's Japan! I expected the best, and that's exactly what I got.For an incredibly expensive country, this hostel is well priced, well located, clean, etc....etc....etc...But for me it's strength was the atmosphere, which was mainly down to the buildings layout.The common area was truly awesome; a big space with a very large central table, pc's, a kitchen and a huge tv, it was perfect to meet up and chat with an array of different characters from all over the world.Hey, It's Japan!

Great hostel, oozing with character and charm.The staff give 100% and are extremely dedicated to helping out wherever they can.Although the location isn't that good, bikes are available for rent & generally the building itself along with the facilities & cleanliness, make up for it's only downside.I would indeed recommend this place.

Clean, comfortable hostel, where you can have a really fresh and tasty breakfast if you so wish.Dorms were presented well with many high performance fans to cool you down.All in all, a safe bet for a hostel, the only negative for me which would stop me from ever going back would be the vast numbers of mosquitos within the hostel grounds, which is due to the fact that it's literally a garden area and quite damp.I was bitten more times during my stay here than my previous 2 weeks in Thailand!

This hostel is located 5 mins from the historic centre on the same street as a few other hostels.In terms of facilities & cleanliness this hostel is in very good standing.The kitchen is also exceptional.However the free internet is actually just for browsing, you cannot open a website.You must also pay for wifi.This hostel is business orientated & it must be said that the staff were not at all friendly, so much so that I left this hostel & moved to a neighboring one.Not a place for socialising.

Located in the heart of Reeperbahn, opposite the subway station, this hostel is tucked away in a courtyard directly off of the main boulevard.The facilities are good & the place is clean & tidy, especially the bathroom which was rather impressive in size for a dorm room.It's definitely not a place for relaxation and quiet time.This hostel is generally for party people & I'm sure during peak season it gets rather loud & rowdy.However, I would definitely recommend it as it's great value for money.

The location is very good as it's less than 8 mins walk from the centre.The staff were kind & helpful although they could be a little more knowledgeable about the attractions & area.The hostel was clean & tidy, however the pc was not working & the wifi was quite poor.However I would stay here again, as its more than fine for a short stop over.

People tend to associate modern, large-scale hostels with a commercial dullness & lack of character , however this hostel is neither, with it's amazing interior design & layout, along with an awesome vibe, its definitely a place worth staying at.Only 1 min walk from the tram stop and supermarket & less than 15 mins to the centre, the location is also great.I would recommend this hostel for sure.

This hostel ticks all the boxes.I cant really find any faults.Its clean, well located and is great value for money.However I personally wouldn't stay again as it is more of a commercial party hostel with little character and charm.Having said that, I would still recommend it, as it has everything a backpacker could possibly want.

Cheap hostel, located away from the main city areas, however buses do depart to old Venice at stops within 15 minutes walking distance from the hostel & the hostel offers transport to the city at times throughout the day.Even though I stayed at an off peak time, the atmosphere was great & I'm sure its even better in the summer with the swimming pool & bar area.The bedroom & bathroom was clean.I would definitely recommend this place for backpackers.

Perfectly good hostel, no complaints.Clean room & great bathroom.About 5 mins from the tram stop & located in a good area with shops, cafe's & bars in the surrounding area.I picked this hostel as every other option was fully booked.I would say that there are more central options available for the same price, so unless your looking for something quite far out of the city centre, I wouldn't recommend it tbh.

The Hostel is a 10-15 min straight walk from Luxor Temple (You follow one road all the way).I stayed in a dorm room which was clean & presentable with great working AC.They have a roof terrace which is nice for chilling out, free breakfast & cheap tours; I payed £6 (UK) for a 5 hour tour of the Valley of the Kings (excluding ticket price), which is value for money.The wifi was also super & computers are available if you haven't brought your laptop or android etc.Definitely stay here!

This Hostel is situated in a perfect location; 10 mins walk from Tahrir square & the main food district.The staff are friendly & helpful & the atmosphere is very chilled.I stayed in a dorm room which had 4 generously sized single beds, which were clean & presentable.The bathrooms were also in excellent condition with western toilets in case anyone is worried about the infamous squat toilets, which to be honest you will only find in more rural areas of the country.Wifi was also good.Great Hostel!
