Liked: The big kitchen and lounge space.

Disliked: The charging on hostelbookers was more than on arrival. That you had To buy sheets from them. Everyone kept to themselves so not that great to meet people.

Liked: Very easy to find (Dresden Neustadt station), clean, inexpensive, friendly staff and for 5 euros, the breakfast is a good deal.

Disliked: It is a good 15 minute walk from the old part (the old city) of Dresden and this will be tiring, if you have to go back and forth many times.

Liked: The hostel is pretty good. The common room's cool and kitchen's pretty well stocked. Location is about 20 minute walk to the old city center. Reception hours are a bit short so make sure your flight/train isn't before 8:00 or after 22:00.

Disliked: The hostel's down a really dark street and the directions from the train station could be more clear.. I had horrible roommates but otherwise the stay was satisfactory. Breakfast's probably not worth the 5 euros. It's pretty cheap to grab something at the bakeries on Koningstrasse.

Liked: Really lovely staff who helped me out with everything I needed (sightseeing advice, organizing bus tickets and even found me a map for my next destination!) Nice big kitchen, cool chillout area and warm comfy beds plus the whole place was really clean...

Disliked: If I had to pick something, it might be the lack of free wi-fi although it was pretty cheap (50 cents for an hour) and there are plenty of cafes nearby with wi-fi if I really wanted to be glued to my computer...

Liked: very clean, modern, good location very helpful staff. i like it a lot!

Disliked: wifi didnt work in the rooms only in the lounge. not a dislike but its not a very bustling hostel, but the streets surrounding the hostel have amazing bars, just it seems that a night out doesnt start at the hostel which is a shame.

Liked: Great atmosphere! It is really well located and is clean and friendly. The best thing about the hostel is that it is really easy to meet other people, either in the pretty back yard or in the common room. Also the staff were really friendly! This is the best hostel I've been to in Europe! Something about how the common areas are furnished just makes it really easy even for shy people to talk to fellow travellers. Fun to hear about what real Australians think of the place ;)

Disliked: As many have mentioned before me; the showers. But I've seen worse. And these were really clean!
