This was my first staying in the Hostels, before that i was very hesitant however i didn't regret it. The place was clean and the cleaning team work really hard to maintain it that way. Something i also liked about the design of the rooms that i have taken (4 Bed Room) is that, they had one door that allows you to go to a small common area where you find shower, washing basin and toilet in separate areas. In order for you to get to the room you will have to get into another door. This helped keeping the room very quite during my sleep. All the doors were accessed through cards (sometimes other users might leave them open but generally doors are closed), so make you sure you carry your key always with you. The Bunk got power plug and plenty of storage areas for your personal things. The main wardrobe has a good space that you can easily put your luggage in and lock it with pad lock ( Bring your own lock ). Floors have nice carpets making it more quite when moving around. The staff in general were extremely nice and very flexible, I had several encounters with them one of which i had to extend my stay for few days and they managed to allocate me the same bunk although it was a full house. The ladies are wonderful in the reception and very helpful too. Adam if i remember his name right he is amazing with all these activities that he runs on daily basis. He brings people around for good times and also for exploring the city. Parsa another wonderful guy very friendly hardworking guy that doesn't only stop at listening to your concerns, he will physically go with you to chase the issue until you are satisfied. I remember him struggling around to find a better place for a guest that had issues with the air cleaning smell and couldn't breathe well. He took an initiative to take her to another floor and switch of the air scent dispensers or humidifiers just for the lady to be able to use the kitchen in peace. Again i can't stress enough the team is amazing.

It was a hostel that made Budapest unforgettable for me. I would like to thank Mauro for his hospitality. If I had the chance to postpone my flight, I would have liked to spend more time there. Everyone who travels to Budapest should choose this place. It is a perfect hostel in every way. I loved it

Looking for a hostel?

Budget travellers know that there is no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a bit more.

Great location of the hostel, you can reach it by walking from the train station as well. The staff was friendly, the room was clean and the air condition was decent - it was cool enough in the room but not too cold for me to get sick. I really appreaciated the sockets were located above each bed. The bathroom in the room was also really appreciated. In general, I think this is one of the best hostels I have ever visited, especially for such decent price! I would definitely love to come back one day!

We stayed here for a stag do for two nights. What a great place to stay, its very cheap! There was a bar below our rooms that stayed open till 6am with music and food. So after our night out we would come back here to finish the night. It's in a great location bang in the middle for all bars, food and drink. The rooms were fab, the showers were really good for a hostel, powerful. You get a locker in your room too so its very safe. The staff were really helpful.
