A lovely hostel with a fantastic location (walking distance from the Strasbourg Gare, Old Town, and transit connections). The rooms are well cleaned, the beds are very comfortable, and it felt more like a hotel than a hostel. I would only recommend a way to lock up belongings for guests in the smaller rooms, but otherwise I felt very secure here.

I enjoyed my stay here but I wouldn't stay longer than one night. The rooms lack windows, so ventilation is rather limited and thus bothersome to people who do not partake in the "coffee shop culture." In the morning the room was very stuffy and wreaked of weed and body odors. The showers could have used more regular attention, and also much better ventilation. Overall it was a cute place, but I cringe when I think of the damp, stale air and mildew/mold smells.

The location, staff, and value are fantastic. My qualms are with the extremely limited socializing areas, needing to pay to use the hot tub and sauna, the rooftop closing at 8, and the bathrooms. Only one bathroom (Mens' and Ladies') per floor and they could have used some deep cleaning. They were clean, but small and dank/musty. Otherwise: comfy beds with curtains for privacy, kitchen is clean, and thr location, again, is ideal.

Five Elements Hostel Frankfurt, Frankfurt, Germany

I really liked this hostel and would stay there again, for sure. A couple complaints about the cleanliness - there was a blood stain on the only available bed for me, and the roommate I had did not use any bed linens/sheets (which totally grossed me out!). Though the hostel is in the heart of the Red Light District, I loved the energy and proximity to everything in Frankfurt, especially the central train station.

I love staying here every time I come to Montreal. The beds are so comfy and private, the facilities are fantastic, and the view from the rooftop is incredible.

This hostel has a wonderful atmosphere, one that is easy to relax in. The staff is very friendly and professional, I appreciated their help if I asked for it. The hostel is literally across the street from the Hauptbahnhof, which was perfect for my purposes. The facility is kept clean, but I felt the bathroom in my dorm could have used a bit of bleach. It wasn't awful, but it smelt quite a bit of urine, the floor needed to be mopped, and the shower needed a good scrub. Otherwise: loved it!

This hostel was so quaint and perfectly located. Staff was wonderful - I really appreciated them staying in German with me despite my accent. The building is old and creaky, but I really liked its vintage feel. Bathrooms are kept very clean. Beds are very comfy and hard to leave...! Breakfast is nothing too special, but very convenient and probably cheaper than going out. The hostel is not a far walk from the main train station, and is even closer to a square and the port. Great hostel!

AWESOME hostel! Staff is so helpful and so well-versed in their jobs and the surrounding town. They were happy to help me change rooms when an issue with other guests occurred. The bathrooms in the rooms can get a bit gross-smelling. They don't have soap or towels in the bathrooms, so bring your own. That grossed me out, otherwise it's spotless. The bar is a great place to meet people! The extra cost for breakfast is worth it. Not a far walk from "downtown" either! SO close to transit.

Really interesting hostel. If you're looking for a ROOM: this is not a place for you. You sleep in a giant tent with a wooden platform floor. In the summer: it's chilly at night and hot during the day. They sell any little necessities you may have forgotten. Bathrooms are very clean, the kitchen can get messy. But you can buy dinner and dine among fellow "campers." They have a little campfire at night where everyone socialized, it was great! It reminded me of summer camp!

Loved this hostel. It's right in old town, has air conditioning (huge plus in the summer heat), a 1 minute walk to the water, and a 10 minute walk to the Sea Organ. The staff is very friendly, helpful, professional, and dutiful. They work hard to keep the hostel clean, and they have great recommendations from bars to clubs to restaurants to activities. I loved my stay, I will absolutely stay here again when I come back to Zadar.

Great hostel! Staff was very friendly and welcoming. You can leave your luggage with reception and hangout or go wander if you arrive before check-in. Social atmosphere in a very close proximity to transit and Zagreb's city center.

The location of this hostel was very good for it's price. If you don't mind walking: you're not far from "downtown." The hosts were very nice and friendly. Though one was quite clearly an alcoholic. There came points where this host made comments and gestures that overstepped my personal and physical boundaries. He drunkenly lashed out, verbally, at guests and took their food. He was not there all the time though, and nor was I. Otherwise: the atmosphere is very relaxed and snug.

I don't know where to begin: but I'll start by saying I couldn't leave Europe without coming back to this hostel. If you're looking for a hostel where friends and staff become family during pub crawls, walking tours, and various other adventures around Bratislava: then this place is for you. Excellent location. Incredible staff. Unbelievable adventures. Be prepared for a social atmosphere and to draw on the walls. By far the best hostel I have ever stayed at. I will be back again.
