Liked: It was just simply a really nice place to stay! Definitely the best hostel I've stayed in so far in my European travels. Really, really good atmosphere.

Disliked: At times I wish there were more privacy, as all the rooms are interconnected, but privacy wasn't seriously lacking by any means.

Liked: This hostel was great, super relaxing, great decor, an awesome place to chill out after seeing Budapest. We were able to use the sisha pipe, and sat around playing cards and chilling most nights. Very central to almost everything. We had a great time here.

Liked: The couple who run this quirky hostel are truly dedicated to making all travellers feel welcome. There are always food freebies in the cosy kitchen, a kettle ready at the boil for tea and always give the best advice in terms of places to visit, restaurants to eat at. They even will come out and join in on the dancing! A small thing that also needs to be mentioned - towel borrowing is free, as is the hairdryer!

Disliked: My one complaint, and it is hardly worthy of being noted here at all, is there was only one computer. Then again, WiFi is available.

Liked: I felt like home there. I've never been in a hostel with such an nice atmosphere! Also never seen such a big 8bed room. The staff is very friendly and helpful. It's not a place, where you have big party. It's a place, where you can chill and relax. There are many bars next to the hostel. And the best thing: no check out time! :)) I highly recommend this hostel for your stay in Budapest!

Liked: The staff was very helpful and friendly. The place has a very cozy and relaxing atmosphere and it's perfect after coming back from a long sight seeing tour.

Disliked: Better don't go there if you're just up to partying, it's a very quiet place and you can easily disturb people around.

Liked: Incredible zen-like atmosphere, free internet, free hookah, and great staff. It's a home away from home. Bed was comfortable as ever and the location is perfect.

Disliked: it's certainly not a party place, but it's right downtown near all the bars and clubs so partying can be easily accomplished, then back to the hostel for some zen-like recovery :)

Liked: This place felt like a home away from home where you can just hang and chill out. Great kitchen facilities. Comfy beds. Helpful staff.

Disliked: It advertised free tea and coffee and fruit and all 3 were either running out or non existent. A bit disappointing.

Liked: This is a quiet and low key place - with friendly hosts. The location is central but it is an apartment which involves some neighbour consideration. We arrived with bikes and wet gear - and a dedicated or courtyard space would have been a better fit for that requirement. Nic and Fiori are friendly and helpful - so if you want this type of environment its a nice place, if in need of a little modernising.

Disliked: A guest washing machine would be great as Budapest laundry prices are expensive. Get a better fridge guys.
