I had a very pleasant stay at this hotel, it is very warm in winter, the temperature in the rooms can be adjusted. I appreciate the fact that everything was clean and well maintained. The lobby and coworking area are magnificent, I have never seen such luxury in a hostel at such low prices. I will recommend this hotel to anyone, I have stayed in 3 other hostels around Budapest and this is the best in my opinion. Breakfast at a very affordable price.

Perfect for a solo budget trip!!
This place is a perfect place if you are looking for something convenient, clean, safe, and extremely affordable. The front staff is friendly and professional. The lobby is super clean and has lots of sun from the roof window. I was here in late November, and there was no one using the bathroom/shower in the early morning. This place is located on top of a subway line; one stop from the major airport shuttle bus stop. There is a supermarket right next door. I stayed for three nights under 50 euros. You can’t find anything better than this at this price.

깔끔해서 좋았던 숙소
매우 깔끔하고 조용합니다. 다만 다인실의 경우 방에 따라 매우 협소해서 짐 보관이 어려울 수 있습니다. 그외에 샤워실, 화장실은 매우 깔끔해서 좋고, 로비도 넓어서 활용하기 좋았습니다. 지하철역이 바로 옆이고, lidl이 아래층에 있어서 식료품 사기에도 좋았습니다.

Unprofessional Cleaner
To be honest, it was disappointing. I stayed for three nights. The first two nights were fine. On the third day when I came back, my stuff on my bed was all gone. The staff at the front desk was helpful, who helped me to find my charging cable back in the lost and found. He talked with the cleaning staff (who can’t speak English) and the cleaner admitted she throw my stuff away. That is unacceptable. Though my stuff that left unattended wasn’t valuable but I am not expecting they can just throw them away! If someone stole it or whatever that is on me. But the staff throwing them away that is on them. For those who never stayed there, we have an assigned bed so if the staff is professional they can just check the bed number and will know who checked out and who is not. The cleaner staff are rude. One day I needed to put a dessert in the fridge. It was around eight in the evening which I found it very reasonable to use the kitchen given that it was around dinner time. A cleaner was cleaning the kitchen and she stopped me from going in. I showed her that I need to put something in the fridge but she literally pushed me out and blocked the door with her tools. Of course my dessert was all melted and I binned it. Beside, I think some other review also mentioned, the bathroom wasn’t clean. Some showers were blocked forever, and you can always smell pee in the toilet. The breakfast was okay, the design is dynamic but services are disappointing!!

Great place
Great place. Never thought of considering a hostel as a place for the 2 of us but this place had private rooms with private bathroom with all the facilities and for what we needed it was great. It classes itself as both a hotel and hostel so is a bit unique in that sense. We booked this hotel whilst we were in Budapest as the place we had booked before we came was awful and we only managed 1 night there. We then stayed here for the remaining 3 nights and it definitely saved the holiday. Really good hotel, good facilities, good location and good price. We would definitely stay here again or at another if they open more across Europe.

Great Hostel for friends
We came to watch the Hungarian Grand Prix this weekend as the accommodation was perfect for what we needed. The private family room meant me and my four other friends had our own bathroom and shower room as well as adequate space to sleep and for our belongings. The downstairs communal areas and amenities ie bar, lounge, washing machines, kitchen etc are convinient and great facilities. Thank you NETIZEN, will definitely stay again if in Budapest!

There was 1 female (me) and my two friends (male) in our economy family room. The woman's restroom was on the complete other side of the building in a whole different area. Each time I went into the women's bathroom there was something wrong. For example: no toilet paper, no soap in the showers, not clean, etc. One night I found the bathroom with both showers locked from the guests and another day I found the entire bathroom completely flooded. Aside from that, we added an extra night to our stay days before our check-out day and talked to the people at the front desk. The cleaning lady the day before our check-out barged into our room multiple times and was trying to tell us to check out Other than that the front desk people were nice and the common areas and the hotel itself was really nice.

Great hostel
This is an extremely modern and clean hostel, I would call this a "poshtel" in the new range of fancy hostels. They even give free towels, which is rare. Comfy beds, strong wifi, hot water, nice staff, bar and restaurant. The self-kitchen doesn't have a realy stove or oven, just a microwave and kettle and toaster, but you probably want to eat out anyway. I loved it here, highly recommend.

New hostal central to everything
Pretty solid hostal overall. The place looks brand new, it was certainly impressive upon entry. Kitchen facilities were clean and well equipped. I had rented a private room (traveling solo) in an effort to get a good nights sleep. The room had not been cleaned, but it wasn’t that bad so I didn’t say anything. Decent bathroom and fair sized room. The only issue I had was the noise Saturday evening. There was a lot of noise coming from the communal area in the center - unfortunately my room window faced the center. People were talking super loud and it was basically like they’re right next to my window until three in the morning.

Dear Justin, Many thanks for choosing our hotel. We learned with much regret about your inconveniences. We pay extra attention to our cleaning standards, we are terribly sorry if you felt your room wasn't cleaned at all. Our hotel indeed is located in the downtown, therefore there might be some disturbing noise during the night, this is the reason why we equipped our hotel with the most effective soundproof windows to assure calm sleep to our guests. We look forward to welcoming you again in Netizen Budapest Centre. Kind regards, Netizen Guest Relation team
