Read some bad reviews before the trip. But actually my experience was top-notch! We had a private room with separate private toilet. (including schampoo/conditioner and body lotion). Linen and towels were included. A beautiful private balcony! The building has lots of charme, the location is super-central and staff’s amazing. Big, modern, clean kitchen available. With storage in fridge/freezer.

Want sheets? That’s an extra charge. A Towel, that’s extra too. Want to secure your items in the locker, use the laundry? All that’s extra. All you get is a bed and mattress for the cost. There are 3 Toilets and sheets for men and 3 for women, so when the hostel is full you will have to wait.

Hip Karma Hostel was a great place to stay! We were a group of 14 people so booked the 8 bed and 6 bed rooms (both private - only us). The bathrooms are shared with everyone in the hostel but we had no issues with this - they were kept clean and tidy, and no queues. The only issue we had was that you have to pay for bedding (not included on booking), and even though we booked the whole room, we weren’t allowed a key to the bedroom. The person at reception had to keep opening the bedroom door for us every time. Luckily there is someone on reception 24/7, but for security reasons, it was a bit uncomfortable as anyone could say they are in that room. But overall, a great stay and would come again as a big group.

Tivemos uma estadia excelente. Ficamos no quarto com banheiro privativo e era tudo muito confortável e de ótima qualidade. A vista do quarto era boa, as camas e as cobertas eram muito confortáveis. O hotel disponibilizou produtos de banho de ótima qualidade. A cozinha é completa e muito organizada. A recepção é 24h e os recepcionistas são muito simpáticos e prestativos. Pudemos deixar nossas malas após o check-out para passear antes do nosso voo. A localização também é excelente, perto do metrô e de um supermercado, além de vários mercadinhos e lojas. Pudemos fazer muitos dos passeios a pé.
