最悪な初日

元々、こちらのホステルを予約したのに、こちらのホステルは営業しておらず同じオーナーの違うホステルを案内されました。私は何も知らなかったので、真っ暗なホステルで30分以上待ち、こちらから違うホステルまでも住所だけ教えられて放置でした。案内されたホステルの男の人の対応は最悪でした。 女性と朝の担当の男の人はとてもいい人達でした。ですが初日のゴタゴタが最悪だったので評価は高くないです。

Einfachste Absteige

Gemeinschaftsclo auf dem Gang für Dicke und große Menschen zu eng und zu kurz! Gemeinschaftsdusche mit Schiebetür im Winter sicher nicht sehr warm! Primitivste Ausstattung! Alte Dielenböden mit Lack gestrichen. Alte Gebrauchtmöbel. Nur das Bett war neu und wir haben gut geschlafen. Wir hatten ein 3-Bett-Zimmer. Das 3.Bett war eine Not-Liege und bekam kein Kissen und keine Decke! Vom Hinterhof her war es bis spät sehr laut. Das Zimmer war unter dem Dach und über 4 hohe Stockwerke erreichbar. Die Dame an der Rezeption erschien durch´s Fesnter und machte keinen sehr ansprechenden Eindruck. Der Preis war allerdings gering.Keine eigenen Parkplätze, auch nicht zum Kurzhalt, um Gepäck auszuladen.

Will choose somewhere else next time

The hostel is on the top floor so I was not happy when I arrived and was told I needed 10 euros for a key deposit. Had to walk all the way down and back up again, not what I wanted after travelling all day. The showers are 2 feet up off the floor, which are very dangerous to get out of. The dorm room I was in had a lock which was very flimsy, I didn’t really feel safe leaving my stuff in the room, the manager didn’t seem to think there was anything wrong when I talked to him about it.

Best location ever! grocery store literally few steps away from the hotel. I booked the private room and it was huge and spacious, had to share the bathroom though but it was not a big deal. Just be aware the hostel is on the third floor and there is no elevator, other than that it was great. The staff were willing to help.

Not recommend for Ladies

It is not easy to find the location as no hotel signboard located. Just a red door nearby Frank Restaurant. A kind man actually direct us while he saw us wondering around. Hostel located at 3rd floor , no lift only staircase (which is fine for me eventhough I have 3 big luggage w me). The hostel is "special" . I am fine with the decoration but I feel unsafe. The room is not as bright and clean as in photo , carpet is dirty and room is smelly. Everything look shabby. There was a man who seem like permanent resident for the 10 person dorm. He would just change his bed from one to one as he like. Kitchen is ok but no breakfast. No wifi from my room. Locker is not available for big luggage . You can just store your backpack on the floor under the bed. No service from the staff as they just check you in and point your bed.

Клоповник

Хостел находится на барной улице, звукоизоляции нет, музыку слышно в 2 часа ночи. В комнате характерный запас от травли клопов, но как видно избавиться от них не удалось, они являются неотъемлемыми жителями данного заведения. И последнее, самое ужасное, интернет в комнате не ловит.

На пару ночей отличный вариант

Пребывание в хостеле понравилось, персонал дружелюбный и говорит по русски. Несколько раз сталкивались с путаницей в брони, в день приезда моя бронь не была видна в системе, на второй день на мою кровать заселили другого человека. Пришлось разбираться. Жила в шестиместной комнате - она просторная и расположена рядом с кухней. Двухъярусные кровати не изолированные и сильно шатаются от малейшего движения.

Suurepärane hostel treenitud seljakotituristile

Suurepärane hostel füüsiliselt heas vormis nädala sees reisijale, kes saabub kella 9 ja 21 vahel ja kel on kaasas piisavalt sularaha - asukoht otse vanalinnas, turvaline, koristatud, kindla korraga. Piirkonnas asub rohkesti teatreid, kontserdisaale, muuseume ja söögikohti. Siia jõuab tulla jala nii raudteejaamast kui sadamast, lennujaamast või bussijaamast tulles on trammipeatus üsna lähedal. Vähem sobib füüsiliselt nõrgale või vigastatud põlvega inimesele - asukoht 4. korrusel, järsk kitsas trepp, pooled magamisasemed nari II korrusel, duši alla tuleb ronida kõrgele poodiumile ja jälle alla astuda - haige põlve korral otsige teine koht! Vähem sobib ka sooja aja nädalavahetustel, kuna asukoht väga kärarikas - tänaval pidutsetakse, majas baar, kust kostab mürtsu ja lärmi, ka hostelis käib pidu. Halb öösel või varahommikul saabujale - personali pole kohal, ei pruugi sissegi saada. Kaardiga maksta ei saa.

It was great.

It is not that hard to find as some may have pointed out but he long walk upstairs really kills your vibe,indeed. The hostel tries to look traditional while upgrading a few things here and there. So,okay then, why the bad rating? I believe most people rated it based on the toilets or the squeaky floors or the showers. Or maybe just that breakfast which obviously you should not count on. I personally liked staying here as it was really close to all Tallinn can offer. I took advantage of the free washing mashine they have there and I also really liked the staff. For me, it was all ok afterall. I hated when I had to take a shower or go to the toilet but hey, if I managed to get through this, maybe you can also do it. It's really doable. I'm bumping up this hostels rating just because I liked it. Cheers guys!

Schreckliches Hostel!!!

Wir waren zu dritt unterwegs und hatten ein 3-Bettzimmer gebucht. Als wir das erste mal das Zimmer betraten, bestanden unsere Betten aus zwei Einzelbetten und einem alten, nicht ausziehbaren und sehr kurzem Sofa. Erst auf bitten und betteln bekamen wir ein Klappbett, welches in der Nacht zusammenklappte. Es war sehr laut, da das Zimmer zur Straße zeigte. Das Bad war in Ordnung, die Toilette als extra Raum war 1qm groß. Das Schlimmste an diesem Hotel war jedoch der Gestank! Im Innenhof gehrte Müll vor sich hin und der Hof war oben mit einer Glaskuppel abgedichtet, so dass keine frische Luft an den Müll kam. Der Gestank war so schlimm, dass wir in unserem Zimmer tief Luft holten und durch unseren Flur (wo das dritte Bett stand) gingen. Wenn ihr gerade überlegt dieses Hostel zu buchen: lasst es, ihr werdet euch ärgern!
