We arrrived at 9pm not having enough Hungarian money to pay for the first night which the guy said was okay and could pay in the morning. He then changed his mind and wanted all the money now. We offered the equivalent money in pounds and our passports unitl the next day so we could change money but he wanted it now so had to go and find an ATM, the last thing you want to do when you arrive late at night! Apart from that everything was fine.

Firstly, the location was great, that's why i booked it from the begining. Secondly, it's written that it's not the best choice for old people and kids, but i was there with my mom (59), a friend of 38 and her kid, 14 :) and they all loved it. it wasn't noisy, or crowded. We miss the kitchen and Nino ;)

The front door to the flat was left open the entire time we were there. One of the shower doors was smashed and remained that way during our stay. The washing machine was broken and was flooding, and the adopted method to fix it was a mop. The man at the "reception" smoked in the apartment all the time. We loved the city of Budapest, but didn't like this hostel. The location was the only positive.

The location is good, the apartment double ensuite is not so small, the building seems to be secure. But unfortunatelly, the bed was broken and they did not do anything. The price is not high, but sleep in a bed would have been better than sleep on the floor. But anyway, I recommend because of the price!

The double apartment we stayed in was really great, and it was very cheap too. The staff was very helpful and friendly. I saw the dormitories too and I do not recommend them though.

This hostel is in quite a central spot. The beds were comfy, rooms were nice enough. I did have a problem with people being allowed to smoke in the kitchen, however. This is perhaps a problem of the backpackers as well as the hostel itself. Anyway, that aside, we arrived at 6:30am after a hellish overnight train, and the guy there let us in and gave us our room. Totally grafeful for that!

We had a private room, which turned out to be a private apartment. It was excellent. We actually extended our stay!! The location was great, right near the metro. Staff very helpful with info about sights etc. We would definately stay here again.

Very quiet. The kitchen is very good equipped. Location: near Market Hall. Parking the car was little bit difficult.

No real common area to hang out and meet people. A bit dirty and dusty but that maybe due to all the road works out side (which is super loud). I didn't really like it! But it is cheap so if that all you want it has what you need.
