- ADIYASUREN (8/5): very good - I have own breacfast don'm undestand
- StewartCoetzee (7/5): Good if you're just looking for a place to sleep - Close to metro and train station. Only 1 toilet and 2 showers. No staff on sight. Pillow is giant and hard

- Malte (7/5): - Easy ceck in, nice beds, everything you need. When the power went out i called and someone came and fixed it.
If you just need a bed its perfect No real hostel feeling as its just beds in a flat, there is no reception or anything, if you need help you have to call them.
- Elisha (6/5): -
- Bozina (5/5): Odmor - Ok nije loše za 33 e Slab wi fi
- ANIL (8/5): -
- Anna Maria (8/5): Familiär und simpel. - Die Lage war okay, 30min vom Hauptbahnhof, 20min vom Stadtzentrum. Es war wie eine WG, angenehme Atmosphäre, die Leute rücksichtsvoll und ruhig. Die Betten waren wie Boxen mit Vorhang, das war angenehm für die Nacht. Große Fenster für Licht und Kippfenster zum Durchlüften. Alles schön ordentlich und sauber, es wurde täglich geputzt und gab genug Verräumungsmöglichkeiten, die Betten waren sogar gemacht (nur Handtücher muss man selbst mitbringen). Gute Ausstattung und nette Beratung. Ich war überrascht, dass es keine Rezeption gab, man direkt von der Straße in die Zimmer kommt, kein Personal direkt vor Ort, aber das Personal war telefonisch erreichbar. Nur ein WC und eine funktionierende Dusche für 10 Personen, es hat geklappt weil's relativ leer war, aber wenn's voll ist, wird's kritisch. Nur ein Tisch mit 2 Stühlen in der Küche, also man sitzt eng aufeinander. Kein Aufenthaltsraum außer dem Flur, also nicht wirklich Privatsphäre, aber damit muss man rechnen bei einer Jugendherberge.

- Jakusovszki (9/5): A nice place if you want to visit the city for a few days - The accomodation was easily accessible by metro, and it was in a quiet district of the city. The rooms and the bathroom were really clean, and the beds were comfortable. I liked that the kitchen was equipped with a fridge and microwave. Overall we had a great time here and I definitely consider visiting again.
- Гуртова (8/5): -
- Voyageuse (7/5): - Rapport qualité-prix excellent pour Vienne. Literie de bonne qualité et rideau apprécié.
Cuisine à disposition Mauvaise insonorisation : la chambre est au rez-de-chaussée donnant sur la rue, avenue très passante avec beaucoup de trafic.
1 seul wc pour env 12 lits et le WC est dans la même pièce que la douche, compliqué d'y avoir accès...
Aucun service, Pas de personnel sur place (on reçoit les codes d'accès par message). Donc si vous avez quelque chose à demander ou besoin d'un équipement sur place, oubliez ... J'ai écrit un message et malgré leur réponse, on m'a dit non, c'est comme cela.
- Francesca (7/5): I really like hostels, and I have to admit that this is one of the best I've stayed at in Vienna. - It's in a great location. I had to go to Comic Con, which was a 15-minute walk away. It's a well-served area with supermarkets nearby. The beautiful Church of St. Francis of Assisi is impressive, and the area is well lit and spacious. It's not a bad place for a woman traveling alone.
The property is clean, the bed is comfortable, and the shower is hot. Overall, it's very quiet.
There are also a couple of tables where you can work, which I needed, and some armchairs. The large windows provide ample lighting. I didn't say everything was perfect. The facility has some problems that shouldn't be underestimated. For example, there are two small bathrooms with showers, but only one has a toilet. There are ten people in the facility.
The kitchen lacks pots and pans, so if you want to cook for yourself, you can't. The oven and microwave were dirty. Someone with no respect for others left them dirty, and they remained so for all three days of my stay despite the daily cleaning.
I was lucky with my bed because I had the second room for four people, which was separate. The room for six people serves as a passageway to get to the kitchen and bathrooms, so it is not very quiet.
It is also not suitable for people with mobility issues because there are three steps to reach the bathroom and kitchen, and you have to climb to reach the upper beds.
- Geithner (4/5): -
- Yasir (1/5): -
- Saad (10/5): -
- Sofiia (6/5): - Very good mattresses and pillows.
Beds give a lot privacy. We were given no towels.
Windows have no soundisolation. It was really loud cause of it
- Maria Clara (8/5): Em geral, tudo ótimo! Recomendo. A localização não era a melhor mas tinha metro perto - Muito limpo e confortável A tomada de eletricidade da minha cama não funcionava
- Manami (3/5): -
- Roman (10/5): -
- Левчинская (9/5): -
- Stefan (1/5): - Viel schmutz
- Mustafa (1/5): -
- Cenap Enes (9/5): Best hostel i've been in so far - It was very clean A bit far from center
- Mohd Rahimi (10/5): Best! - I really loved the location. The hostel is right next to a majestic church, just across the Danube promenade, and only a short walk to the metro. Check in and check out were completely independent, with clear and transparent instructions. Overall, a very smooth and comfortable stay!
- agnieszka (8/5): polecam ten obiekt. - LOKALIZACJA, WARUNKI SANITARNE, rozwiązanie w obiekcie aby każdy mógł mieć spokój i ciszę. Mimo pokoju wieloosobowego można było poczuć się bezpiecznie. Brak podania kodów dostępu do obiektu, mimo iż określiłam godzinę przyjazdu i konkretną datę. Spędziłam pod obiektem długo zanim uzyskałam informację zwrotną jak wejść do środka.
- Warraich (10/5): - Very very very nice Cleaning
- Kohei (6/5): -
- Ubaid Ullah (10/5): - Everything .
- Sylvia (7/5): Günstige Alternative, wenn man nicht anspruchsvoll ist - Lage nah an der Donauinsel.
Gemeinschaftsküche und Kühlschrank vorhanden.
Zugang jederzeit über Pin statt Schlüssel
Vorhänge am Bett Stufen in der Wohnung.
Lampe am Bett ging nicht, Schrank unterm Bett konnte nicht genutzt werden, da abgeschlossen und kein Schlüssel da war.
Hab die Kaffeemaschine vermisst.
Nur eine Toilette für theoretisch 10 Gäste.
Nachts laut durch die Straße, aber bei mehreren Personen im Raum muss das Fenster wohl offen sein.
- ayurito (7/5): Estuvo bien. - Que es autogestionable. Me gusto la cama, las cortinas y el confort suficiente por el precio pagado. La cocina comoda y los baños suficiente para lo que se necesita. No me gusto el ruido de la calle, podrian cambiar los vidrios por insonoros, esta frente a la avenida y se escucha todo el trafico todo el tiempo. Adicionalmente, le hace falta un espacio para poder hacer una llamada un meet o algo sin molestar a los demas, todo el espacio son los dormitorios.

- Deva (9/5): Great place, great value - Very affordable, near the center and where a wanted to go. The bed was good and comfortable The bathroom, only one toilet-might be better to get another one. Its near a main road so a little noisy from the cars passing. The room it's small ant the place you could sit and talk to someone on the kitchen in not that well organized
- Mohammad Amin (1/5): -
- Granata Luigi (10/5): -
- Rosel Osabal (1/5): i didnt stay went to get another hotel - location was ok not safe to stay
small place for 8 people
- Aurélie (6/5): Confort moyen - Les lits étaient face a un mur sonc on avait plus d'intimité. Une douche était hors service, il y avait donc une douche pour tout le monde qui en plus n'était pas super propre et pas de place pour poser toutes nos affaires. Le logement est tres petit on entend tout le monde. On entend les voitures passer car le logement est au bord de la route.
- NATESAN (5/5): -
- Isak (7/5): - Lagom stort hostel, lätt att prata med andra som också bodde där. Dåliga och få köksredskap.
- Joralina Denise (5/5): Great location but the experience wasn't the best - Location of the place There were only two showers being shared among the guests and one was broken. The working bathroom was small and wasn't the cleanest.
The biggest issue I had however was that I booked for a room for only 4 women but I saw men staying in the same room as I am. I was very disappointed about this. What's more was that there were no staff present for me to talk to about this.
My experience with this hostel wasn't the best and I was glad to only be staying for 3 nights there.
- Girardi (5/5): Non lo consiglio - Il letto comodo e le tendine per la privacy Sará la zona poco sicura, ma purtroppo a pochi passi dalla struttura c’è stata una sparatoria a meno di 30 metri da me mentre passeggiavo, la seconda notte c’era un tipo strano in ostello e verso mezzanotte la polizia ha fatto irruzione nell’ ostello svegliando tutti
- Serhii Utenko (10/5): - Чисто класно уютно и не дорого!
- Carlos (9/5): -
- Ulan (7/5): It's worth the cost. - It's been quite clean. A bed was loudy.
- Keisi (7/5): No Robes included?! Everything was fine, but the fact of missing robes is not acceptable. - No Robes included?! Everything was fine, but the fact of missing robes is not acceptable.
- Attila (8/5): - What? there was not breakfast included.. It was just for staying. And that was comfortable. Place was good, I mean a Penny was just 50 meters away -
- Shostak (8/5): - Everything was good. For this price I couldn't expect more. Clean everywhere. The hostel is located near the road. So the sound of a traffic road could be for someone distracting at night. If you close the window it's almost ok, but at the hot simmers it could be a real problem.

- Ľubica (9/5): - Moje první zkušenost s hostelem a byla jsem mile překvapená. Dostatek úložného prostoru. Šuplík pod postelí plus skříňky, na které je nutné mít svůj zámek. Ubytování bylo čisté, kuchyň dobře vybavená . Postel pohodlná, dostatečné soukromí. Ráda se vrátím.
- Christel (7/5): -
- Ayco (5/5): Onvoldoende - De keuken werd met weinig mensen gedeeld dus echt een huiselijke sfeer. De 2e douche was defect waardoor we met 10 mensen 1 douche moesten gebruiken. Er was geen receptie dus konden nergens met problemen terecht. Ik heb ook geprobeerd te bellen naar de accommodatie maar niemand nam op. We vroegen ons af wat te doen als er echt iets fout zou lopen.
- KK (7/5): - Close to the U-bahn so pretty accessible. The little kitchen and the fridge were great, we made our own breakfast and bought stuff from Penny (the market). The bread on the Turkish market on the corner was phenomenal, though. Loved the blackout curtains and that check-in details were given to us promptly. There was only one working shower and one toilet for 10 people. On some nights, when we walked to the hostel, it didn't feel very safe as there were groups of young men loitering in the park. At one night one of the men followed us, thankfully I had my partner. I would say if you're a solo female traveller, be extra vigilant.
- Öztürk (10/5): -
- Ahmed (1/5): Bad -
- Gavin (9/5): Superb -
- Davide (2/5): Very poor - The position, the beds were clean and comfortable There was no reception I had a problem with my phone so I could not enter the email and nobody answered at the number, I was lucky I was able to recover somehow the booking,if someone or something has a problem there you won't receive assistance at all.internet was absent most of the time and when it was present was very slow and the list goes on.....
- Gracieo (8/5): Good value for a couple of nights, consider other options if staying longer - It was comfortable, each bed had it's own privacy, and they provided storage below the bed with keys. You should still take your own padlock if you need more storage space and plan to use the lockers.
Staff came almost every day to clean shared spaces, but it was more surface cleaning. More focus should probably be in the toilet area as some people (men*) pee on the toilet floor without cleaning after themselves. (This part was disgusting!) There's only 1 toilet and 2 showers shared by both rooms (10 beds). Also, the kitchen is right next to the toilet & showers. Very weird layout, so be prepared for being uncomfortable.
In my bunk (no 6), the charging spot above the bed was not fixed to the wall, so it was annoying all night, especially as I moved around a lot while sleeping.
The screws of the storage provided under the bed were loose/broken, and I struggled using it. They should focus on doing checkup and repairs around the beds, too.
The kitchen is okay, but it doesn't have storage containers if you'll rather cook than eat out every day. Bring your own!
- Mark (7/5): Good -
- Erustus (8/5): Very good - The place is conducive Taking too long to get access code
- Thompson-looij (7/5): Apartment converted into hostel, very chill vibes, not very social, clean and tidy, overall great place to rest - Location was alright about 40min walk or 10 tram ride Showers would flood the bathroom
- Balint (7/5): Great for the price - This hostel was great for 2 days, I would say. The kitchen is nice and equipped, the lockers are big enough (you need your own padlock for them), and the bed curtains give you as much privacy as possible in such a setting. The location is pretty nice, it's right on the U2 line, and there are shops nearby. I think 2 toilets and 1 bathroom for 10 people is not really enough. The wifi was really inconsistent. It's also pretty noisy outside, so I would recommend earplugs to make sleeping a bit easier. The code to enter should also be sent ahead of time.
- Vincenzo (8/5): Friendly hostel in nice location - It has some kind of comfort Door codes sometimes do not work
- Noah (9/5): Superb - The beds are incredibly comfortable! The place is super clean and the showers have great water pressure.
- Dániel (9/5): Superb -
- Zheng (7/5): Overall good. - Very close to a grocery store. 1. My first experience with a hostel. I saw on the website description that towels will be provided. So I did not bring my own. When I get there, I found a blanket for bed but for towels for the bathroom. I had to buy a towel myself.
2. Very close to street. Windows were left open all the time. The room was noisy and cold.
- Prasoon (8/5): Budget-Friendly and Well-Located, with Basic Comforts - The property was conveniently located near a metro station (Vörgtenstraße) and a bus stop. The door access key was provided on the day of arrival, making check-in and entry seamless. The rooms were clean and well-equipped with lockers, hangers, an iron, and individual sleeping pods featuring charging sockets and reading lights. The kitchen was spacious, well-equipped, and had ample seating to comfortably enjoy meals. There’s a combined toilet-and-shower area, plus a separate shower room serving up to ten people (six in one section and four in the other), so you may have to wait your turn.
- 杨 (10/5): Exceptional - Thank for the girl promit me put my luggage until the afternoon, it is so nicel
- Nongdren (8/5): Very good -
- Pooja (6/5): Pleasant -
- Rizqilana (5/5): Worst hostel ever, dont wanna come back - The location Almost everything.
1. The air circulation was poor. The unit has two connected rooms. In total, it has a 10-person capacity, and it smelled when all the guests were inside.
2. There was only one toilet and two showers for both rooms, which wasn't enough, particularly in the morning. I once found a guest peeing in the shower because the toilet was occupied.
3. The unit was dirty, particularly the bathrooms.
4. Usually, a hostel with a kitchen gives guests free food or at least salt, sugar, and pepper. But there was nothing. No free food in the kitchen, only expired food and tea.
5. No reception. I once locked outside because the key code didnt work, maybe because the battery was low, and there was no manual key to open the door. I tried to get a solution from the reception, but she only said to wait and keep knocking. She didnt want to come till another guest called and naged at her
6. The pillow was hard and uncomfortable
- Rona (10/5): Exceptional - Everything was great. I was lucky enough to have the place to myself so that was awesome. They’re very responsive to my inquiries also. Their kitchen is complete with utensils so you can cook if you want to save money from eating outside. Overall this is a great place. It’s on the main road so it can be a bit loud from the cars outside but nothing a pair of buds can’t fix.
- Arturas (10/5): Exceptional -
- Vishal (8/5): Very good -
- Opeyemi (7/5): Nice value for money, clean space in a nice location - Nice value for money, clean space in a nice location with shared kitchen space and two bathrooms.
There is no door between the two rooms, so it is basically a 10-bed spaced partially partitioned into 6 beds and 4 beds. Shower only lukewarm rather than hot.
- Elliot (10/5): Exceptional - It was one of the best of its kind.The beds ensured total privacy.Generally was very exceptional.
- Reka (9/5): Superb -
- Ngoc (4/5): Unsafe for female solo traveler. - Outside auto-door was unable to be locked multiple time.
No gender separation. There were outer and inner room that were separated from each other by a door without key lock.
I was the only female guest at that renting period. The outer room had 6 beds rent by 2 male tenants (4 was empty). However, they arrange another man into the inner room, which was extremely unacceptable.
- Rahul (9/5): Superb -
- Helena (9/5): Superb -
- Helena (9/5): Superb -
- Asif (7/5): Good -
- Aneli (10/5): Exceptional -
- Gaia (9/5): Excellent value! Super clean and comfortable. - Wifi barely worked.
- Sandeep (10/5): Exceptional -
- Muhammad (10/5): Exceptional - The property was really clean and was well maintained
- Michał (9/5): Comfortable stay for a short Prater visit. - Good privacy for a dormitory room. Super-comfy beds. Quiet, clean, and comfortable. Will stay again.
- Mohd (8/5): Very good - Price and location. None
- Gašper (9/5): Superb -
- Nicola (5/5): A very comfortable hostel but without reception - The room was great, with large private boxes equiped with lockers, very comfortable beds, nice layout. To have a kitchen, well equiped as well, is a real advantage! Good bathrooms. No reception? What the hell is that?! When you arrive in a hostel you're always nervous and you need to be reassured (will I get in? Will the room and services be fine?...) and without any contact with the staff it's hard to feel safe and serene inside. Not professional at all.
- Ayşenur (8/5): Very good - Kitchen was so practical to use, bathrooms were clean and location was good.
