Guest Reviews
- Alhusni (1/5): -
- Karazsia (1/5): - Nothing is like the pictures.
The whole building smells of cigarettes, the RECEPTIONIST Smokes At The Reception.
The common areas are disgusting, dirty and smelly.
The rooms are smelly and dirty, the other guests are extremely disruptive, they don't pay attention to the other guests.
There are no power outlets, I had to ask for an extension cord and they barely gave it to me.
During my entire stay I was afraid that I would be robbed or mugged.
I don't recommend it to anyone, pay a little more and go somewhere else.
It operates entirely as a homeless hostel.
The bathroom is disgusting, the toilets are dirty, they are not cleaned properly, often they are not flushed, and in many cases there is no toilet paper.
- Vadym (1/5): HORRIBLE, I HAVE NEVER SEEN SOMETHING LIKE THIS IN THIS LIFE - HOUSING FOR THE HOMELESS

Az értékes túra háti zsákomról nem is beszélek!!!! Hívtam rendőrt és az egyik tettes (egy vén kurva) meg is volt találva másnap a Honvéd kórházban, a táskájában az én egyik személyes holmimmal. Elég egyértelmű bizonyíték, nem is vitattak a rendőrök. Ha nem is lesz meg semmi, remelem jó pár százezerre büntetik azt a csovest és bandáját. Odabent hiába nem ment a kamera a nyílt utcán egy citromsárga színű túra táska elég feltűnő. Felelni fognak ezt a rendőr is abszolút garantálja!!!!!! Ha nem is lesz meg imeg semmi, remelem jó pár százezerre büntetik azt a csovest és bandáját. Másnap megtaláltam a vén kurvat a Honvéd kórházban, a táskájában az egyértelműen feliratozott cuccaimmal a holmiai kozott. Ez már. Több mint bizonyíték, a rendőr is ezt mondta. Odabent hiába nem ment a kamera a nyílt utcán egy citromsárga színű túra táska elég feltűnő. Felelni fognak ezt a rendőr is abszolút garantálja!!!!!!

Pénzt tárcamat ellopták korrupt rezepzion roller kapott az Algéria fiútól
- mario (1/5): Gangster hostel welcome dirty land - Don't like Hallo hallo!
This hotel Danger and dirty !
- Ioann (3/5): Vähän outo paikka - Hostelli sijaitsee hyvässä paikassa, on mukava päästää rautatieasemalta On likaiset huoneet, kaikki paikat huoneessa on hirveässä sotkussa, hostellin työntekijä kesken yötä näytti huoneen toiselle asiakkaalle niin että tuli huoneeseen,laitoi valot päälle ja kovalla äänellä kertoi kaiken. Valitettavasti tästä en pitänyt hostellia. Sen lisäksi en saanut lakanoita eikä pyyhettä.
Jos huoneissa olisi siistiä niin olisi hyvä paikka. Mutta en suostuu enää asua tässä hostellissa
- abebe (7/5): - I really liked the way the guy at the reception greeted me and provided me with all the information. I want to say thank you. The time range set for checkin. It would be nice if it was possible to checkin in the morning, it would reduce the additional fee.
- Oleksii (1/5): -
- Mark (2/5): - Telling me to pay extra late check in fee, moreover by cash and not card!!!!!! So hilarious and unprofessional

- Mary (5/5): It did the job I paid for, the guests were nice, the main staff man was very nice too. - Location was great, a shame some repairs were not done, but as it was a busy Christmas season, I had to take what was available at that date. The staff were very nice though. The whole thing was, I had to get to that end of town urgently and it did the job. It was warm, dry, comfy, close to supermarket etc, and a bit oldish, but served my purpose. There were some repairs, esp to the floor in the kitchen area, that needed attention and a few other things, but basically, it was safe, the main thing, warm, dry and close to every service up that end of town.

- Mark Hajji (1/5): We don't recommend this hostel - We're Arrive there at early but there is no Receptionist to assist us, then we waited for long ours no one will assist us, we just wasted our time,money and we feel bad for our situation yesterday, and we have decided to find another hostel, I hope I can get my money back, because we were unable to use the room because there was no one there and the reception area was closed. and we have decided to find another hostel, I hope I can get my money back, because we were unable to use the room because there was no one there and the reception area was closed
- Riteshkumar (9/5): Good - All good
- Heliise Doris (7/5): Good when you take things, like soap, with you. My food container I left to dry was stolen though. - Good toilet paper. very interesting, cozy interior design, a little like a fantasy world The smell of smoking, the material of bedsheets

- Mehdi (8/5): - To be honest
- Yurii (5/5): - Location is convenient, staff is friendly, price is pretty low. The building is dilapidated. The lockers are all either broken or filled with someone else's junk and you'd really want a locker with some of the people living there. Despite booking a place in 4-person room I've got situated in 12-person one instead and it was freezing in there, thankfully after about an hour the mistake was corrected and I was moved into the right room which was heated, but filled to the brim with garbage. Would only recommend if you need to stay for 1-2 nights and have somewhere else to store your luggage.
- Hamza (1/5): -
- Saiqin (10/5): - I had a truly wonderful stay here.
The front desk staff was incredibly nice, patient, and easy to talk to, he made the whole experience even better.
The hotel has everything you would need, including a hair dryer. The bathroom and shower were especially great, very clean and comfortable. I was also really touched by the sign at the entrance of the bathroom clearly stating “Female Toilet, males not allowed.” It shows real respect for women and made me feel very safe. Little details like this genuinely warm your heart.
I honestly don’t understand why this hotel has such a low rating on Booking. If the full score is 10, I would definitely give it a 10.
Thank you again, I truly loved my stay here. no

- Roberto (1/5): Terribile - Niente Una struttura fatiscente con personale che non ti aiuta neanche quando l'errore è della struttura.
Avevo prenotato una stanza da quattro pagata per quattro e mi sono ritrovato in una stanza da 12 pagandola per 4...sono partito da Praga passando per Bratislava arrivando a Budapest tutto in ostelli...mai avuto problemi come con questa struttura...

- Asanbekova Zborowska (1/5): -
- Швець (2/5): Не рекомендується - Нічого не сподобалось Забронювали у 6 ти місному номері, поселили у 8ми місний номер. Пообіцяли що буде у ньому проживати 6 людей, протягом ночі постійно підсиляли людей. Жах. Не рекомендую
- Taras (7/5): -
- Friedrich (4/5): -
- Velasquez (8/5): Como en casa - El personal muy amable. La cocina bien equipada, los baños limpios y la ubicación es excelente. Hay cerca un mall y la estación de trenes. También puedes ir a la plaza de los héroes a 30 minutos a pie. La habitación es oscura y la bombilla se apagaba por ratos.
- Karparvar (9/5): - Staffs are good
- Anna (9/5): A recepciósok segítőkészek és kedvesek voltak. -
- Rashid (8/5): - The staff was really supportive. Moreover the location is easy accessible to public transport
- Adjemian (7/5): Was nice overall. - Excellent price, very nice and friendly staff. It was really nice that I got to meet some people at the hostel and even stayed in touch with some of them. The room is big, so we are a lot of people in one room, so not much privacy but great to meet people.
- Éva (10/5): A Zoli és a Laci nagyon cukik,segítőkészek,nagyon chill!Volt egy kis malőr de megoldották nekem! :-) - Lokáció! A hely kissé elavult,egy modernizáció sokat dobna a helyen!
- Éva (10/5): A Zoli és a Laci a recepciós fiúk nagyon profik!Segítőkészek,kedvesek,intelligensek,egyszerűen chill!Volt egy kis malőr - Lokáció! A hely kissé elavult!Egy kis modernizáció feldobná ezt a szállást!

- Hasan Ahmed (1/5): - There is nothing in this hostel worth liking. The stay was very bad and the owner's treatment was very very bad. I booked with him and sent him a message that I would be late and would arrive at the hostel at three in the morning because I would be during work and my work ends at two in the morningBut he didn't reply to my message and when I arrived at the time I specified he forced me to pay 2000 forints or 5 euros extra in addition to the accommodation fees because I didn't check in to the hostel on time and he said if you don't pay you won't stay here I paid because I was tired, then he asked again for 2000 forints or 5 euros to give me the key to the locker where I put my bag. It was a bad stay in every sense of the word.

- Jennifer (2/5): Very poor - Good location, very close to the bus. There are bed bugs!!! The hotel doesn't change the sheets, they are dirty, the pillows are smelly, the people staying are mixed, like a refugee camp, there is a small stove, but no kitchen utensils, it is very dirty. The staff can't speak English at all and it's hard to communicate. The bunk beds are noisy.
- Tv (4/5): Disappointing -
- Aron (10/5): Exceptional -
- Al (1/5): Bad - Location The jungle atmosphere...bed bugs...daily disturbance...police always in the building... neighbors are terrible...
- Demiryürek (2/5): Very poor - Apartment has it’s own style. It’s not safe for a solo traveler women. Stuff doesn’t know English. Actually no one know English, even the guests are local people so they put all the foreigners in the same room. Worst thing if there is mostly dirty old people there is no soup there is no toilet paper I have to ask them they tried to help me when I asked for those stuff but you have to ask them to access and they don’t know English.
- Testimony (1/5): Regretting on booking this titled accomodation - There was nothing to like there The beds are dirty
