Reviews of Aloha Hostel

02 June 2011 Viviana would recommend this property

Liked: Its location was the best feature of this hostel, and also the breakfast! Loved the cereal they served, and they also give bread with jam, coffee, juice, and hot chocolate.

Disliked: The staff is the worst I have seen. They are very unfriendly and always in a bad mood. They help but the least they can and with bad manners. Also they rent you for 3 euro the blankets.

Liked: The breakfirst was good for a hostel. The muesli was nice. I slept in a 4-bed-dorm, so that it wasn't that loud in my room in the night. After that the location is great! It's in a quite calm area and still kind of central. No need to be afraid of weired people during the night. The staff was very nice even they weren't very helpful some times.

Disliked: In my eyes the hostel wasn't clean at all. The rooms were ok, but the showers and the toiletts were awful sometimes! Also there were just 2 toiletts and 3 showers for the whole level (for at least 35 people staying on that level)... After that none of the plugs in my rooms worked and I had to charge my mobile in the bathroom where everyone could have taken it. In one of the showers the light didn't work so one couldn't take a shower that as soon as it got dark. The upper beds of the loft beds didn't have a railing so I was kind of afraid to fall out of my bed during the night. The stuff was nice but not very helpful. I went to paris with a friend but they couldn't get us into the same room, although I e-mailed them before we arrived. Oh and I didn't have a proper pillow. My pillow was a pillow case filled with old towels! And even as I asked the stuff for a proper one, they couldn't get me one because they didn't have any more...

10 May 2011 Dave would recommend this property

Liked: I found the property to be extremely clean. The rooms were also spacious and not overcrowded. The hostel is also well located and has a friendly and welcoming atmosphere. Breakfast was also excellent - thank you.

Disliked: The noise from the stairwell. Unfortunately noise carries in this hostel, from people coming up and down the stairs constantly. This kept me awake several times. Perhaps a bit of carpeting on the stairs might help to muffle the noise. No lockers in the rooms - although not a major problem as the card/key system does helps to ensure security.

26 April 2011 Customer would recommend this property

Liked: Good location, friendly, helpful staff.

Disliked: Computers are in need of an upgrade, they are often not working. Why don't the outlets work in the rooms!?! It's really frustrating to have to bring everything you want charged to the front desk, I can tell the staff doesn't like it either. Could use more bathrooms. A lot more.

Liked: I loved the breakfast, the rooms were clean, there were a lot of showers and toilets for everyone to use.

Disliked: The other people in the hostel were not that friendly

19 April 2011

Liked: The room is not bad.

Disliked: The bed should be given a fence. It is scary to sleep at the second story of the bed and we realize that there is no fence. We can slip and fall to the floor at the middle of the sleeping. The drain at the shower should be taken care more seriously so that no still water there after being used by guests.

28 March 2011 Customer would recommend this property

Liked: Aloha is close to metro stop and within a walkable distance to most major attractions. Breakfast was also really great and everyone there was extremely friendly.

Disliked: The showers were horrible: cold water, dirty, no pressure, old. The rooms weren't the nicest either, but they were tolerable. Also, having to pay to rent sheets was inconvenient.
