Disliked: Amenities, property conditions & facilities
The location was excellent, and the elevator was convenient. However, my room was at the end of a long, dimly lit corridor, and the Wi-Fi only worked near the lobby, which was very inconvenient. The cleanliness was acceptable, but the toilet, sink, and shower were all in one room, and there was an overall smell of sewage that was noticeable.

Great value for price.

Good location, easy to access. It was affordable (i booked a bit last minute so very happy overall). Room had all the necessities. Wifi connection in room non existent unfortunately. But the common areas in the lobby were good, and you can hang out there if you need the wifi.

We are not hostel people but in Budapest there are not many other options. So my partner and I did one of their double rooms with bathroom included. The facility is great in perfect spot and the laundry facility was great. The only reason it is not a 5/5 for me is that there were people running up and down the hall every night at late hours. Would recommend!
