Daniel HowellThe room was excellent with comfortable beds and clean linen and plenty of storage options, tables and chairs. Location is minutes walk from the square. The staff were extremely helpful and friendly and spoke excellent English. There is a decent communal area and kitchen. Internet is free and fast. The only slight negative point is there was only one shower and toilet per floor which during busy times of the year might be slightly inconvenient. |

Customer reviewGood location in the old city. Not a good place to meet people because the common area is a bit out of the way.. |

Customer reviewThe place was less than 5 minutes away from the town square, the prices are really reasonable, and the rooms were spacious. Most other hostels would probably squeeze several more beds into the room. The service was good, they even allowed us to check in to the rooms at 7.30 in the morning. |

Customer reviewExcellent location, nice spacious room and comfortable real beds (biggest and cheapest dorm). More mirrors needed in the room, nothing else to complain :) |

Customer reviewThe kitchen was scary and there were few resources in it. Other than that, the hostel was nearly perfect. |

Martin RafterLarge, clean rooms right in the middle of Old Town, and only a short walk from the harbor if you arrive by ferry. |

Customer reviewNice place and right in the middle of the old town could be a little bit cleaner though and was pretty quiet, but all in all good value. |

Victoria ArmitageIt was very close to the city centre, very clean and the rooms were gorgeous. The common room area was a disappointment, dark and uninviting with no facilities, tv etc. though there was free internet at the reception area. Brilliant for being close to town but not so good if you want to meet other people. |

Rita Elise FjeldstadGood locations, in the middle of the old town. The kitchen was a bit smelly since the fridge didn't work. But then again the building was really charming, and you really feel like you're in old town tallin;) good value for your money! |

Customer reviewVery nice spacious rooms, each bed has it's own personal reading light, which is fantastic if you are arriving really late/early in the night and are trying not to wake everyone up. The building, and common room especially, has a lot of character - although the TV was broken, which was a pity as it's always interesting to see a little local programming while travelling. The hostel is less than 2 minutes from the main square, so it's almost perfect! |

Customer reviewAside from the smell of sewage in the kitchen, it was reasonably well equipped. Rather limited common sitting area, outside there was a dreary courtyard but with an umbrella that offered protection from the rain. |

MIGLE ALEKSONYTELocation was superb, quality matched the price, we had everything was necessary to make our own food in the kitchen. staff was very attentive - we arrived at 7 am and they already had our rooms ready for us, before that checked the arrival time by phone. it was clean enough, though not so many toilets and showers. the place seemed to us to be more for individual travelers then for meeting people at the hostel and having fun. but we (8 people) would definitely recommend it :) |

Dali Su Dali SuStaff very helpful, printing service available, WiFi available. Good value for the price, but there is too few showering facility in the hostel. Installing lockers in the room won't hurt - at least some boxes that the travellers can lock using their own padlocks would help a lot. Kitchen is dirty and the freezers stink, we suggest that they be cleaned at least once a week. |
