A friend and I stayed in the 10 bed dorm room at The Kosmonaut and every much enjoyed the staff and amenities. We barely waited in the morning for a shower and with so many rooms, we actually had the entire dorm to ourselves the first night. I definitely recommend staying a night or two here, if only because it... More

I stayed with a group here and they were wonderful. Usually hostels are just a place to sleep and are so so, but at this one they really went out of their way to take care of us and it was definitely well above average!

On arrival at the hostel we went up a staircase to the hostel itself. Reception staff greeted us and checked us in quickly. They gave us loads of information about the area,... More

This place is an oasis for any traveler. It's centrally located, extremely clean, interesting, warm, and fun to be part of. Staff are all charming, helpful young people with excellent English. Nice breakfast (coffee, bread, cheese, fruit, milk, juice) included in the cozy sitting room/kitchen area. And there's hot water in the shower and drinking water in the kitchen! More
