Liked: Amazingly helpful staff, we were given a map of the city and then she circled all the things she thought we might like to visit and talked through loads of things about Budapest. Brilliant. Felt very homey. Laundry is free if you have your own detergent!

Disliked: It was very quiet while we were there, greatly lacking in atmosphere. Difficult to find.

Liked: Small, but very welcoming. Tucked away in an apartment building near all the action.

Disliked: A bit small, and felt crammed. But if you don't mind a smaller space then it's perfect.

Liked: It was very colorful! The rooms had character and the painting was really great. For such a cheap place, it was great value for money; it is in a great location with lots of metro and tram stations around, and it had a funky feel.

Disliked: We got bitten by spiders in the night!! We woke up with quite a few bites... But, otherwise, it was really nice! Very helpful!

Liked: Martin was very friendly and happy to help. Free wi-fi and clothes washing were good, and was a good location to be able to walk everywhere. Was good to only have 5 people in dorm - great value for money.

Disliked: Not really sure what happened about the "free afternoon tea", but I didn't bother asking either - accommodation was so cheap it doesn't matter!
