Liked: clean room, not far from Wien Westbahnhof (railway station) and subway station

Disliked: There has been a gap between the bottom of the door and the floor, so that you could hear people outside of your room talking as if the door was open.

Liked: Good calm place to stay.

Disliked: They don´t have courtains so the sunlight woke me up at sunrise. Also the ventilation of the room was a little poor.

Liked: Clean, secure and pretty well located.

Disliked: Rooms themselves were a little cramped.. There isn't really any form of social space, so if you're here to meet other travellers, I'd give it a miss.

Liked: The staff were really nice and helpful and it was quite close to the Ubahn etc.

Disliked: We booked a 6 bed shared dorm, which was situated in a separate building from reception, behind one of the other dorm buildings. This wasn't to bad but it's quite close quarters, so if you are sharing the room with some strange people, then it's not very comfortable. The kitchen was a bit difficult to use as both had people sleeping in them, so we had to eat at certain times as not to disturb them.

Liked: Free wi-fi, decent-sized bedrooms, close to Westbanhof station, cheap laundry service

Disliked: No common rooms to meet people. I was in a room with a guy who snored like an undulating freight-train, but I can hardly blame the hostel for that.

17 January 2011 Customer would recommend this property

Liked: big, clean room, we shared the kitchen and bathroom with only two other people, who were never there, so it was really good value - like our own apartment for 25euros per person per night...

Disliked: the equiptment is not new, but its ok.. also the room smelled a bit like someone smoked in it a while back, so we had to air the room out when we came back - but it wasnt very distracting, so not too bad..
