More like a cheap hotel (which it actually is) than a hostel. No atmosphere so wouldn't encourage if you are a solo traveler or wish to meet people. Staff are helpful but only friendly enough to remain professional. Clean and tidy but we had a broken main light in a room and despite constant reminders from various guests they failed to do anything about it for over four days.

Great hostel with hotel standards! Decent price for Paris and well worth paying for the comfort and security! Not the best place for simply meeting fellow travellers but as there is a cafe/bar you'll be fine with a bit of extra effort! Staff were helpful and friendly. We had a great stay, would definitely stay again!

Great hostel! We weren't so about the atmosphere when we first arrived but at night everyone comes together, staff included and it becomes a great place to meet people and hang out having a few drinks or just chatting. Good location, walking distance to most thing and an easy metro ride otherwise. Staff were fantastic! (Thank you SO much for sending me my phone)

Great location right in the centre. Awesome atmosphere for meeting other travellers or just relaxing. The staff go above and beyond when it comes to helping a traveler in need, thank you Jacob and Xavia!! Also the volunteer Kali is a sweetheart :) go have a chat and enjoy your stay! Only down side would be the lack of sockets in the rooms , especially by beds...

This is more like a hotel than a hostel , the place is huge, but in a good way. The restaurant upstairs serves great food! And the tours on offer are worth the money to have it all organised for you. The only downside would be the wifi as it isn't a very strong connection , and doesn't work at all in dorm rooms. Also a bit hard to find, but you'll get there just look out for the signs on the archways!

This place was fantastic, although the main area to hang out and meet travellers is outside and this is very cold at this time of year so be sure you have warm clothes! The facilities are good and the beds and showers were both great! Good location and easy to find from both the train and bus stations. The atmosphere was on and off but if you are willing to put yourself out there you are sure to meet great people!

Best hostel I've stayed at in ages! Lucas and Joanna are awesome and very helpful. Free pancakes for breakfast is totally worth getting up for. Right in the old town is a great location and you can hang outta either of the other two hostels. Meet a great group of people and on the weekend there is always someone to drink with. Would definitely stay again!

This is the best place to stay in Cappadocia! Both Ali's are so helpful and friendly! They helped us book our hot air balloon before we even arrived and they also helped us book the green tour.

Mostly awesome staff! But a few made us not want to hang out at the hostel all the time.. Good location though. Good rooms etc and they will help you plan things to do, caving under Budapest is a must! As well as the ruin bars and a free walking tour.

Good hostel if all you want is a comfy bed for the night. There wasn't really an atmosphere that encouraged meeting other guests, so if you don't mind that or maybe want some time to yourself this is okay. A bit out of town which can be a real bore in general but especially if you plan on heading out at night as the last bus back is at 12.30am.

We had such a great time here! One of the nicest hostels we've stayed at in a long time! Awesome atmosphere, and people!! Great bar upstairs, good place for socialising and meeting other travellers! The pub crawl with their other hostel was a lot of fun also. If you want to meet people in Edinburgh and have a good time this is the place to stay, friendly helpful staff and Edinburgh itself turned out to just be a beautiful place all round! Cheers guys, keep up the good work!

We had a great stay here! The hostel was fairly quiet as we stayed at the beginning of the week but I imagine at the weekend it would be ideal! Just across the road from the beach, it is easy to find if you look out for Pryzm night club (across the road it is just down western street). The two girls on the front desk, Nuria and Kamilla were so lovely and very helpful! Stay here!!

This place was awesome! We were arriving late but the hosts left clear instructions. They were friendly and super helpful and spent most of the morning talking to us! Pity there weren't many guests at the same time as us so there wasn't much of an atmosphere when hosts weren't around. But over all fantastic!

Amazing staff! Seriously,so helpful and just great for a chat. Location is good, not amazing but still fairly close to the centre. I can see how this place would have an amazing atmosphere, but unfortunately we didn't love the group of guests we were staying with so kept mainly to ourselves even though it was the weekend and we would have loved to go out with them. The pizza place two doors over has AMAZING food also!

You are getting what you pay for! The location is the worst part about this place as it is so far from the city. The staff do there best to make up for this by being friendly and super helpful! But we decided to change after just one night. They were very understanding and didn't charge us extra also we were given a lift to the tram. If you are on a budget and don't mind being far from things then this place will be fine.

The hostel was lovely, with nice rooms and a view from the balcony. Most of the staff were helpful and accomodating although the guy working nights not so much... The 10.30 noise curfew seemed to be taken a bit to extremes when we were talking in a normal tone in our room and asked to be quiet. But other than this I would definitely recommend :)

My stay on Ischia was amazing! In large that was down to choosing this hostel. I booked for two days and ended up staying over a week! I couldn't believe the view when I arrived, I could see the sea from my bed! The island has so much to offer, and shaun was happy to give advice on what to do/how to get places. The atmosphere was fantastic and I met some lovely people in my time there. I am definitely going back!
