Good hostel overall, however bathrooms probably needs renovating (they seem quite old). Beds are comfy, however airflow might need improving, as it can feel a bit musty (can open windows thankfully). There a kitchen and lounge area and a quiet study area which is quite nice. I liked the storage space above the beds and also the lockers underneath

Nice, clean stay and central location.
The six bed female dorm was clean, quiet and we'll air conditioned. My only comment was that there was a male staff member who simply walked in without knocking to clean the room. It's a female dorm, so someone might have been changing. When I pointed out that he should knock, he said "sure" as if he was going me a favor. Perhaps some extra training is needed for that particular staff member.

It’s okay for staying one or two nights there. The staffs looked like having a bad mood or something, didn’t have that much patient to the guests. The location is nice, very close to Kálvin tér, central market and liberty bridge.

a calm relaxing vibe
All of the reception staff I encountered were gentle, helpful people. The overall vibe was very calm and relaxed which I really appreciated. I also liked the small extras in the sleep space; a curtain, a light, a shelf, outlets and a cupboard. There is a quiet area which is a nice touch. The pillows could do with replacing. Sadly the cleaning staff did not have the same approach to the guests as the reception staff. The woman cleaning the kitchen in the morning talked on her cell phone or with another cleaner while she barely paid attention to the cleaning. She banged plates so loudly that my entire room was woken up at 8am even though our room was not close to the kitchen. Also, our private bathroom had mold on the tiles as there is not proper ventilation. It might be a good idea to cut a hole over the bathroom door to help air flow and to employ a more conscientious cleaner. Lastly, there are 61 steps leading up to the hostel. I have a bad knee and the amount of steps did not affect my knee at all as there is a railing and the steps are not steep. However, my suitcase has been badly scratched as I had to painstakingly drag it up step by step. It is not the end of the world but something to keep in mind if you have heavy and/or expensive luggage. Despite my criticisms I would stay again due to the reception staff and the overall calm atmosphere.

Everything was great! Would highly recommend this hostel. The only issue was that the bathroom in my room (the 8-bed female dorm) was moldy on the edges and very stuffy due to the high temperature in it. Other than that, staff were wonderful, great events, and awesome common area/chillout spaces.

Great hostel
Nice set up in dorms with privacy curtain and plug socket and light by bed. Lots of big common areas which gives nice feel to hostel and really good kitchen. Location is great for public transport links and can walk to some central locations. Would stay here again next time in Budapest.

Room was good but neighbours were noisy until 4am
The room was good, a slight complaint in that the pictures clearly show towels provided but you have to pay for these. The rest of the hostel is good and the staff were helpful however we didn't get any sleep. From 1am until 4am people were banging about, having loud conversations and arguing around the building.

I really liked it
First of all converting a 100 years old building to a comfortable place to stay is not easy and they did it. All pictures are recently taken and accurate. Very clean and safe place to stay, mostly Ikea stuff. Clean and renovated bathrooms in and out of rooms, very close to bazar and Aldi to buy and preaper food specially for breakfast( large kitchen with 4 stoves and free good quality tea bags). Having one safe for your backpack, one smaller safe above bed for small stuff, large free safe in front desk Easy to keep cell phones on charge with a tray close to power plug above the bed. And most importantly, very quiet place in quite building - floor 2 , no elevators. Enjoy staing there

Overall a good stay
The location is really handy for sights/bars and restaurants, though it is quite difficult to find at first. You need to go down a short alley and there's no sign on the street; it took us a while to find the hostel. The reception staff were brilliant, very welcoming and full of information! We stayed in an 8 bed female dorm which was in good condition - the rooms were a little noisy at night but that's not the hostel's fault! There was loads of room in the beds and they were very sturdy. The only real negative thing for me was the tiny bathroom - it looked like it needed a deep clean and it smelled damp. Overall a good stay.

A great base for travellers
The communal area (kitchen/dining room, sitting area) was great. The bedroom was a bit on the cramped side. Close to the market, where you can find all sorts of local foods. The direct airport bus departs from a nearby metro station.

Cute and Comfy
This was my first Hostel experience and I think it left my standards very high. The staff was excellent, the rooms pretty quiet, and the lounge areas were the right amount of lively. Wonderful. Would stay again if I visited Budapest again.

Good hostel, but lacking a little something
First off: there are a lot of positive things to say about this hostel. The location is ideal for exploring the city from and it's close to the metro as well. It's great that each bed has a little curtain around and that access to a light and plug sockets have been considered as well. The shower was powerful and warm, too! I didn't think the hostel was super clean and the drainage in the bathrooms seemed to be quite smelly while I was there. It's also a little lacking on the vibe front.

Majoitus oli kävelymatkan päässä kaikesta. Lentokentältä pääsi hostellille helposti bussilla, sekä takaisin lentokentälle. Asiakaspalvelu toimi moitteettomasti ja oli ystävällistä. Huone vastasi kuvausta ja siistijät siivosivat paikkoja jatkuvasti, joten tilat olivat yleis siistit kokoajan.
