    • I booked room for 2. The hostel is near the centre by the bus. The room was clean, we have our own bathroom, we have towels, a hairdryer is available at the reception. If you want, you can ask for cleaning the room. The breakfast, i think it was 7 euros, was big, a lot ot choice. In the hostel there is a place for a cigarette. The receptionist were kind.
    • The location is good and is close to the center and bus stops. The staff is helpful. It is good that there is a room to store luggage before checking in or after leaving the room.
    • Location was good, internet was strong and good signal

    Cons -

    • Everything was perfect!
    • The walls are too sound-permeable and you can hear everything from the other room, which disrupts the comfort. The skylight didn't close properly and there was a draft right above our heads. The beds are older and not comfortable.
    • As a hostel it was fine to serave my purpose of transit in the city.

    Quiet . I shared one bathroom (attached to the room )with 2 other girls. They were not there when I use the shower .

    The staff could be little more friendly . I guess they are busy invoicing and receiving the deposit of lending the towels etc. Not to catch airport bus 100E .

    It’s well located, comfortable and clean. Internet was just ok, broke a few times but I was able to work.

    The blond girl of the night shift might be one of the rudest, saddest and most bitter person I have ever seen in my life.

    4EsmanurPosted on: 10-21-2025

    I really like the design of the room, its vibe and the size of its cabinets, it is also lockable.

    I stayed for two nights, but I had to stay one night. They could have refunded the other night because I didn’t stay and I still checked out at the time they could check in. I think I’m at a loss of 16-17 euros.

    The 10-bed all male dorm was great. Every bunk bed had a divider between other bunk beds and had curtains so it felt very private. The room was spacious and even had tables if you want to work on your laptop. It was very quiet and the location of this hostel was very central and close to everything you need.

    Nothing crucial but maybe the fridge in the common kitchen could be a little bigger and add some label stickers for the guests to mark their food stuff.

    Great location! very close to buses, shops, and pubs, which made getting around super easy. The toilet had a small leak, but it didn’t really affect our stay. Overall, it was a good experience and I’d definitely come back again.

    10VázquezPosted on: 9-27-2025

    The hostal is amazing, everything is pretty clean and if you’re more into calm hostels, this is the one. I have no complaints about it and I would definitely stay here again.

    Maybe that in some parts the internet fails a little bit but it’s not a huge issue either, most of the time it worked pretty good

    we used the property only for 3 hours just to store our luggage before catching flight. great location , near to public transport and tourist attraction.

    10KirizsPosted on: 8-17-2025

    We booked this hostel last minute, because our ride for the airport fell through. It was cheap, relatively close to a bus stop for bus 100E, so it looked promising. For the price, it was fair. It was perfect for a short night's sleep.

    The light in our bathroom took a while to turn on after we clicked the switch, but that's probably the biggest "con" we encountered during our stay.

    I had a roof

    Horrible experience with inconsiderate guests. Requested help from staff multiple times and never received any help.

    8ValeraPosted on: 8-10-2025

    I stayed in a 12-person room, which was smartly divided into 3 sections with 4 beds each. I slept great, and no one disturbed me.

    5Balazs S.Posted on: 7-8-2025

    The receptionits helped to find my glasses that i left in the wardrobe. Relatively, it was a silent in the hostel.

    This was a hotel before and now it is functions like a hostel. So the wall, cleaniness, beds, rooms, shower, etc. looked quite used. The whole place looked like and old hotel, You can almost smell tabaco smoke, I mean, not modern at all- the hostel looks better on the photos than in relality.

    Nice and friendly staff, location is good and it was very cheap. Facilities were clean.

    10RogePosted on: 6-26-2025

    This is one of the best hostels by far. Very spacious and clean rooms. The staff were nice and helpful. Will definitely recommend this hostel.

    I liked everything, to be honest.

    7SpencerPosted on: 5-22-2025

    I liked the outdoor space and the kitchen area to chill in.

    My room was used by someone who was staying there long-term and so their stuff was sprawled everywhere. So it felt like I was staying in their room within the hostel. The room was a good size though and the bathroom was good. Cabinets were plenty big enough.

    Unfortunately, I was robbed in the place. I insisted on reporting it to the police in the morning, but the manager didn&

    Comfortness was really good, the design

    I really tilted about the breakfast I bought with breakfast 2 nights but it didnt worked so 2/10.

    9Lina M.Posted on: 5-5-2025

    I stayed in a female dorm and it was pretty good! I had a lot of privacy, big lockers, huge bedrooms , reception 24/7, and a good place to chill! And the most important: it’s very close to the clubs (if you want to have a night life in Budapest)

    One of the shower wasn’t work as it should in my room. And the location is good but a bit far from the train station (30min by walk)
