Reviews of Sir Toby's Hostel

18 July 2011 Peter would recommend this property

Liked: Good travellers hostel, with a good atmosphere. Clean, and feels safe and comfortable.

Disliked: It was quite a long way from the city centre, so be prepared to use the trams, unless you really like walking. The wifi internet reception was pretty unreliable.

18 July 2011 Tessa would recommend this property

Liked: Very friendly and helpful reception staff, nice breakfast (although a little pricey), good music! Free internet is a bonus!

Disliked: The neighbourhood wasn't terribly interesting, but it is nice to get away from the tourist-trappiness of the centre city. Power points in the dorms definitely needed seeing to - looked dangerous!

17 July 2011 Leonardo would recommend this property

Liked: The pub in the hostel is one of the best features, really nice ambience and great opportunity to meet new people. Nico is the man!!! he helped us a lot of how to transport in the city and which places to visit,

Liked: Best hostel of my entire (3 month) trip! LOVE the staff - they were super friendly and helpful - they gave me maps with written directions to everything nearby, and restaurant and bar recommendations as soon as I walked in. Rooms are clean and pretty - they feel more homey than the sterile hostel norm. Free wifi/computers, an EPIC breakfast spread (seriously worth the money), and a really beautiful kitchen for cooking. The crowd was eclectic but really friendly and fun to talk to, and everyone was social - the hostel has a lot of social areas (bar, kitchen, back garden) to meet people. Also, they had deals on all transportation passes and advice about everything.

Disliked: Nothing, really. It's not in the city center, and is a little off the beaten track, but the trams were at the end of the block and you could be anywhere in the city in 15 minutes.

Liked: Everything! It's clean, comfortable, cosy, with its own design aesthetic and great faciltiies. The staff can't do enough to help you. Although quiet a large hostel, it has a friendly atmosphere and it's easy for lone travellers to hook up with other people in the cool bar, garden, kitchen and other communal areas.

Disliked: Nothing! Although travellers should be aware that it's located about 15 minutes (by tram) out of the centre of the city - wasn't a problem for me though.

04 July 2011 Customer would recommend this property

Liked: Very friendly staff, good atmosphere as a lone traveler to meet others. Breakfast was the biggest and had the most choice I have seen! Easy asses to the old town via tram, helpful staff able to explain how to get where I wanted to go and provide advice.

Disliked: People staying up late on their laptops in dorms after midnight, maybe I'm a light sleeper but to have more than 3 people using laptops and keeping lights on while I'm trying to sleep is annoying. Just wish people in dorms were more considerate, most people were fine.

02 July 2011 Henryetta would recommend this property

Liked: Reception staff were always really helpful - especially Petra - she was always there to answer all my questions :) Place was always clean. There were large lockers in the room along with small ones by the bed and also ones available behind reception. Great atmosphere to meet people as they also organise events each evening - so join in on them to meet other travellers. Would definitely stay here again!

Disliked: While it's a bit out of Old Town for walking - can get there in a short tram ride. 10 ppl room is a bit cramped

01 July 2011 Ryan would recommend this property

Liked: - The staff were really friendly and helpful with anything you needed - Breakfast was amazing All-you-can-eat yum! - Beds were comfy and room was large to enjoy with others - Really cool basement hangout area

Disliked: - Location wasn't to bad but you have to take a tram for about 10-15 min to the main central area which isn't a bad thing.

17 June 2011 Megan would recommend this property

Liked: Awesome hostel. All single bed in my dorm, was so happy not to be in bunks. Every night they have something on, eg beer tasting, quiz night. Lots of fun. Breakfast was the best breakfast EVER in a hostel. Amazing. Cheap meals at the bar each night. Really good. Staff are friendly. The hostel is super clean. Great place to relax and meet people. The lockers are big and safe. They have an elevator which is such a bonus considering some hostel stairs. I have already recommended thsi place to others. Do Richards No Umbrella walking tour, he is awesome and his tour is better than any others. AWESOME HOSTEL!

Disliked: Nothing really. One girl didn't really know much about much but the rest were brilliant so it made up for it.

14 June 2011 Stephan would recommend this property

Liked: stayed in the 4 person dorm, big room nice room, with normal beds (no bunkbeds). Everything was perfectly clean, the downstairs kitchen quite nice and the bar/lounge was great.

Disliked: Only downside is the location a little bit outside, but it's a short tram-ride, there are some nice and cheap food options around, there is a great little supermarket quite close (open until 11pm) and there is a big (vietnamese) market close as well.
