We stayed here 3 nights,. I think there is quite a difference between the hostel and the apartments - we stayed in the hostel. As the title says, the accomodation is VERY basic and quite dingy. It felt quite run down. The toilet and showers were shared between 5 rooms/dorms, and we had to walk through the common room area... More

We stayed in a very well located apartment (a block from the river and a two minute walk to the Cathedral) with a well equipped kitchen and a bathtub (a real luxury when you've been living in hotels for months). The neighbors had yippy dogs, and the pilot light in the stove seemed to have gone out without any recourse... More

We rented an apartment here and were overall very satisfied. It could have done with a bit more upkeep (hook for the shower was broken and made things a bit awkward), but considering the age of the building, it was well maintained. The location was very convenient and we felt completely safe. The apartment itself had all the basics we... More

The hostel has a great location: 1 min walk to a metro station and a central street with a market, burger king, pharmacy, bar, restaurant, and 5 min walk to Saint Stephen cathedral, It's in a decadent building, but the hostel itself is quite good (or at least the floor we stayed at, since there are more than 1).

I stayed in an apartment on October 6 Street, about a five to ten minute walk from the main hostel. The apartment was clean, very spacious, and warm. The quality of sleep was good and the staff were helpful (arranging transfers, giving directions, and recommending places to eat). The standard of English was very good for all of the staff... More

I booked an apartment via the hostal. After being picked up at the airport by one of the charming staff, they walked me about 3 minutes away from the hostal reception to the apartment which was in a normal residential block. It was great to feel that I was living in an actual Hungarian home rather than a hotel. I... More

I thoroughly enjoyed my stay at this hidden treasure of a hostel, hard to find because there is no street sign - only a tiny button with the word hostel. Very well run, wonderfu,l friendly, helpful staff.

Huge flat with kitchen-living room, bedroom and bathroom, totally renewed in a old typical hungarian building. Helpful staff and very clean. They have different apartments all over the city and...
