• Aparna (1/5): I Very disappointing stay. Incorrect navigation made the hostel hard to find, and the phone number provided was unreacha - Very disappointing experience. The hostel was difficult to find because the navigation information provided was incorrect. To make matters worse, the phone number listed on the website was wrong and unreachable, making it impossible to get assistance when needed. The service was poor, and the staff were not helpful. There were also serious facility issues—the bathroom water would stop working whenever the washing machine was turned on, which was highly inconvenient. Overall, the stay was frustrating and far below expectations. I would not recommend this hostel. Very disappointing experience.

• Sergio (1/5): No lo recomiendo, es lo peor que he conocido en mi vida. Una pocilga sería un piropo para esa porquería de hostal - Es una pocilga Son ladrones y estafadores , me robaron.
• Graham (7/5): Ideal location for a very good price. - As others have said, it's a very good location. Very close to the main train station - Nyugati (7-8 mins walk or 1 tram stop), metro line1 station (1 minute walk and tram stop (practically outside main door). So many eateries, coffee & tea houses and bars/pubs in the neighbourhood. A 24 hour supermarket literally around the corner and a Spar supermarket just 2 minutes walk. Norbert (I hope the spelling is right :-) ) was friendly and cooperative with check in and check out times. The kitchen was adequate. No one was preparing more than hot drinks and a snack during our (4 day stay). In fact, the hostel only had a handful of guest during our 3 night stay. The bedding, towels, bedrooms and bathrooms were clean. Plenty of loo roll and soap provided. It's cheap!! Maybe because it was a holiday period (Easter Sunday and Monday), lots of cups and dishes etc were left in the kitchen sink for a couple of days. Left by irresponsible guest, so the hostel not really to blame. The communal area is bit sparce - only a small table, a few hard chairs and one old armchair - but you can't expect a hotel lounge for the price!! Not a big problem for me, but a lot of street light came into the room because it wasn't possible to close the outer window blinds. If you need a dark room to sleep, bring an eye mask. Also bring some (plastic) slippers to use around the hostel (even if they are provided) - additionally you need them for when/if you go to the wonderful thermal baths/spa in Budapest. The internal courtyard of the building is run down. Not the hostel to blame. Apparantly, most condominium central court yards in the city are like that.
• Bilgesu (10/5): -
• Mariia (9/5): -
• Farbod (4/5): Very complicated - First when I arrived there were no signs at the building so I wasn’t sure I’m even at the right place. The entrance apparently opened up using a code but they didn’t provide that code either so didn’t know how to get in. Also when I arrived they said I have to pay 25€ late check-in fee on top of my booking because their check in time is until 10pm and after that they charge a late checkin fee. Also they charged another 50€ on top of that for a deposit fee which was uncalled for but they said they will return after the checkout. I checked out in the morning but no one was there to return the deposit so I left hanging and wondering how to get the 50€ deposit back. Inside the house they did not allow shoes other than the entrance. So one had to remove the shoes and walk on the hard wooden floor without shoes.
• ShaiiyNe (10/5): I stayed april3-5,2026 - If you find friendly budget hostel to stay i would recommend universal hostel budapest, very accessible near everything you need, a nice hostel and kind helpful owner, staff 😊
• Dr.suresh Swarnapuri (8/5): - I had a great time.great hospitality
• Camille (1/5): Fraude - Rien Rien n'indique sur le bâtiment une auberge de jeunesse, nous avons du attendre une demi-heure devant avant d'entrer en même temps que quelqu'un entre pour se mettre à l'abri de la pluie. Nous devions nous éclairer à la lampe torche pour accéder à l'appartement. Ce n'est pas une auberge de jeunesse mais quelqu'un qui a disposé des lits dans un ancien appartement et souhaite en tirer profit. Cela ressemble plutôt à un coupe gorge. Nos pièces d'identité en nous ont pas été demandé, ce qui nous fait douter de la légalité de cette auberge. Nous avions réservé deux lits dans le même dortoir, on nous a dit qu'on serait séparé. Nous nous sentions pas en sécurité, et avons préféré partir. Cet endroit est vraiment à fuir.

• rantida (10/5): - Very good location, lovely staff And the room is very comfortable.
• Eberhard Kurtne (7/5): Sehr angenehm, ich komme wieder!!! - Ich war allein in einem 4 Betten Zimmer. Das war sehr-sehr gut ! ! ! ! Alles sehr-sehr sauber ! ! ! ! ! Es gab auch Handtücher, es war sehr gut!!!!!" FRUHSTÜCK GAB ES NICHT
• MAKSYM (6/5): Раджу зазделегідь обговорювати яким чином ви потрапите до кімнати чи квартири яку арендуєте - Розташування дуже зручне Не сподобалось, що треба було чекати дві години поки прийде хтось і впустить в кімнату
• Denis (6/5): -
• Dávid (10/5): -
• Zsuzsanna (8/5): Egy éjszakára tökéletes volt a szállás. - Éjjel foglaltam el a szállást, a személyzet elérhető volt és készséges. Jól megközelíthető volt a szállás tömegközlekedéssel. A környék kicsit hangos volt, de az ablak becsukása után ez teljesen megszűnt. Kategóriájának megfelelő, tiszta szállás. Két szoba van, keresztül kellett menni a másik szobán, akár alvó emberek mellett. Nem tudom, mennyire zavarta ez őket.
• Saikal (1/5): This was the worst experience I’ve ever had! While traveling in many countries, this was the most unclear and strange ex - - Very dirty apartment, shower rooms are full of hair and stains, dust everywhere, toilets are dirty and smells disgusting! Bed sheets are smelling as well! Personal is very rude and irresponsible! Bed is very small and old! Not possible to even lay down or sit! Let alone sleeping on it!
• Manuel (1/5): Very unpleasant treatment and rude staff member - Nothing I made a reservation late in the evening, and the information on Booking stated that check-in was only possible within the next 30 minutes. Because of this, I hurried to get to the hostel as quickly as possible. The place was poorly signposted and difficult to find. Before arriving, I was asked what time I would arrive, and I replied that I would be there in two minutes, which was still before the check-in deadline shown on Booking. When I arrived, there was another guest trying to enter and speaking with a staff member by phone. We were able to get inside and had to wait there; the building was very old and quite dark. The staff member saw on the camera that there was another person (me) and became annoyed. She started shouting on the phone, saying she did not like that there was another person there and claiming that I had not replied with my arrival time, which was not true. I explained that I also had a reservation and that I had rushed to arrive on time because the check-in window was about to end. When she arrived in person, she was clearly in a bad mood, looked at me in a hostile way, and spoke to me very rudely. I was honestly shocked, as I have never been treated like this in a hostel or hotel, and I travel frequently. She even started shouting, despite having a small child with her. I mentioned that perhaps she could use better manners, especially in front of her child. In the end, she told me that she did not want me to stay there, and after the way I was treated, I did not want to stay either. At least the reservation was eventually canceled with a full refund, which was the only positive aspect of the experience. For these reasons, I would not recommend staying at this place.
• Yaser (7/5): -
• Saad (1/5): - THIS HOST IS RACIST He refused to accommodate me claiming I arrived a few minutes late. As a result, I was left without accommodation and had to spend the night outside, as no other lodging was available. lost 100 dollars this racist guy said “go back to your country negro, Hungary doesnt want people like me' I strongly advise against staying at this property. HATED Budapest because of him

• rantida (9/5): -
• Alsina (10/5): - El hostel está dentro de un edificio muy bonito. A pesar de estar cerca de una avenida con la doble ventana no se escucha casi nada. Hay muchos baños. Elizabeth es muy amable y servicial. Respondió enseguida ante nuestras dudas. La cocina podría estar un poco más equipada, alguna sartén y una olla un poco más grande.
• Marchena (3/5): -
• Vuk (8/5): -
• Krzysztof (8/5): - Lodówka, czajnik, kuchenka, stolik, 2 osobne toalety +wc. Zaskoczenie z powodu spakowania moich rzeczy z łóżka i schowania ich do szafy, mimo iż miałem rezerwację na dłużej. Była to pomyłka i udało się wrócić na własne łóżko.

• Nicolas (7/5): Relacion calidad precio imbatible, pero podría haber estado más limpio. - La ubicación y la relación calidad precio es MUY buena. La ropa de cama estaba bien. El tamaño de la habitación tambien. La ducha tenia buena agua caliente y tenia refrigeradores grandes. Estuve 2 noches y nunca fueron a limpiar. El contacto con la gente del lugar no fue bueno tampoco. Te obligan a estar descalzo en el establecimiento pero el piso estaba algo sucio.

• Alexandra Lexi (8/5): -
• Francisco Ivan (8/5): -
• Jalil (6/5): - Lo primero para encontrar el hotel complicado, después de llamar y encontrarlo tenía que esperar más de media hora porque no había nadie, y el precio era de más 40€ por una cama en una habitación compartida(caro)
• René (4/5): - Nichts Wobei ich die Unterkunft gar nicht zu Gesicht bekam. Aufgrund der Verspätung meines Fliegers konnte ich nicht pünktlich zur Check-In Zeit um 22 Uhr vor Ort sein. Vor dem Abflug war ich per Nachrichten über Booking mit jemanden vom Hostel in Kontakt und habe am Ende noch gefragt, ob ein späterer Check-In möglich ist. Nach meiner Landung hatte ich immernoch keine Antwort. Ich bin dann extra mit dem Taxi zur angegebenen Adresse gefahren, war ca. 22:20 Uhr vor Ort und es war kein Hinweis zu dem Hostel zu sehen. Telefonisch war auch niemand zu erreichen. Also bin ich weiter zu einem anderen Hostel. Dann kam per Nachricht nochmal der Hinweis das Check-In nur bis 22 Uhr und ich könnte einen Schlüssel irgendwo abholen. Zu dem Zeitpunkt hatte ich mich dann aber schon woanders einquartiert. Sehr schlecht: es gab kein entgegenkommen was die Check-In Zeit noch was die Stornierungsgebühren betrifft. Zudem das plötzlich auf die Frage, ob ein Check-In auch noch später möglich ist, keine Reaktion kam. Obwohl ein Austausch mit den Infos, dass mein Flieger Verspätung hat, zuvor erfolgte.

• Davide (9/5): Pernottamento last minute per andare a visitare Budapest con amici. - Pulizia e servizio della struttura sono ottimi. Il personale è sempre a disposizione per qualsiasi dubbio e chiarimento. La camera esterna è collegata a quella centrale dove risiedevo, così facendo chi doveva entrare nella camera esterna doveva passare dalla centrale, creando un po’ di chiasso.
• Köpöczi (9/5): - Az elhelyezkedés, a kényelem, felszereltség. Ilyen nem volt.
