We booked 2 bed apartment ensuite for 2 days. I should admit, It was my best stay ever. It was very close to city center. Damn clean. Very friendly staff. Worth for money. Best place to stay fro small family. Surely will recommend for others. More

My two friends and I stayed in an apartment a few blocks away from the main hostel, where they put people who have booked the 3 bed rooms. While we were happy with the service we received throughout our stay, we were also a little disappointed in the room. I think the worst part was that the beds were basically... More

REVIEWER PERSPECTIVE: * Mid-40’s single male traveler from the U.S.A. doing a 4 month world trip. During stay at this Hostel my 21 year old son was accompanying me. *Focus has been on staying in budget accommodations. A good budget hotel/hostel for my standards is: secure, clean, comfortable, quiet at night, with reasonable access to the location I am visiting.... More

First of all let me tell you that my best friend I traveled with, met her now fiance here at this very hostel. This hostel is in an excellent central location on the Pest side (which I think is the better side to stay in if you prefer the city atmosphere), walking distance to everything, there was even a small...

We stayed at this Hostel for 4 nights in early September, it was our first time in the city and I have to stay as a seasoned hostel stayer this is up there with the best.
