01 September 2011 Customer would recommend this property

Liked: Most interesting accomodation on my trip. It has an on-site (and mega cheap) bar, table-tennis and table-football, cheap food, beach-style outdoor bar and children's playground with zip-wire (which i also enjoyed!) They aren't part of the hostel, but guests can use them. And despite all that potential for noise, we slept really well! Staff are very friendly too.

Disliked: It was a bit of a trek from the centre of town.

01 September 2011 alexandre would recommend this property

Liked: five minutes walk from transport and about half an hour to Pest center, so together the location and value for money (remember included breakfast! )) are very good. And the bar below is excellent place to finish your evening.

Disliked: not all safety boxes (which are actually the inside the of beds) have the keys, but it is possible to store valuables at reception.

16 August 2011 Customer would recommend this property

Liked: Great bar downstairs that is lively until the early hours of the morning, which can be good or bad depending on what kind of trip you're on. Wouldnt recommend this hostel to anyone who is looking for a quiet atmosphere.

Disliked: Staff were nice but not overly helpful. There are no security measures put in place. Location is a little far out from everything aswell.

Liked: good location, interesting concept, helpful and friendly staff, clean and silent enough

Disliked: the entrance via parking lot should be signed better

10 August 2011 Customer would recommend this property

Liked: El personal es bastante amable.

Disliked: Un poco alejado del centro, las camas muy incómodas y tuve la duda si las sábanas estaban realmente limpias. La ducha dejaba salir el agua por lo que siempre había una poza en el baño, además la ventilación del dormitorio era malísima. El desayuno no es una gran maravilla, solo café o té y un poco de pan con mermelada y mantequilla. La cocina no tiene casi ningún implemento y lo que había estaba sucio.

Liked: what we liked as a group was that the staff was helpful. We had problems with our booking, and they were able to relocate us without extra payment

Disliked: The breakfast could have been better, we only ate there one morning out of two

07 August 2011 Julian would recommend this property

Liked: We were given a dorm in a block of apartments adjacent to the main hostel building. The room was clean, and had a nice number of power sockets. The receptionist was able to recommend places to go and give us information on the free walking tour. A cool thing is that there's a bar on site, which gets fairly lively at night. There's a children's playground on site as well, which can get a bit annoying. It wasn't an amazing location, but it was far enough out to mean you could get fairly cheap food. It's about a five minute walk from a tram and metro stop, so it's not exactly hard to get into the centre.

Disliked: The building we were in had a strange entry system. You could enter freely, but you needed a code to exit. The receptionist tried to explain why, but I didn't really understand the reasoning. This resulted in groups of people gathering at the door waiting to be let out because they couldn't remember the code. The apartment was nice (it had two dorms of six in it), but the bathroom system was a bit strange. There was a toilet marked men's which literally just had a toilet (no sink or mirror). Then there was a bathroom marked women's, which had a toilet, sink, mirror, shower and bath. Basically, everybody just ended up using the one with everything. Two minor points, which wouldn't put me off booking again.

Liked: nice playground, bar, there are also a couple of places close to the hostel, where you can buy pizza or gyros.

Disliked: there was some mistake in checking-in and we were 7 people in 6-bed room... thank to the couple, it was ok, because they managed to occupy only one bed.

19 June 2011 Philip would recommend this property

Liked: Breakfast, bar cafe and a late night club all being on site was a major bonus, plus there's a playground with a mini zipwire. What more could you want...?

Disliked: Was quite shabby looking on the inside, but verging more towards unkempt old manor rather than run-of-the-mill dirty...

16 June 2011 Customer would recommend this property

Liked: It is relatively near the metro. Staffs were friendly in recommending a dinner restaurant to us.

Disliked: Breakfast was very limited.Not filling.

10 June 2011 Customer would recommend this property

Liked: You get a good place to sleep very cheap. Lockers under the beds which works good. Shower and toilet in the room. Not a place to met people but a cheap place to stay thats in a decent location. It takes you maybe 20 minutes to walk in to the city centre. A few stops with metro.

Disliked: Says it has a kitchen. Does not.
