i've read other reviews saying the toilets smell like urine all the time, which was mostly true -- except i got housed in the all female dorm which had an ensuite bathroom (which was a major plus since i didn't pay the extra, they had just run out of the regular rooms), which did not smell like urine so that was not an issue bratislava is a VERY small town so although the hostel was not exactly IN the center, it was a very very short walk. the hostel was easy to find from the bus station. one you get there they give you a swipe key-card along with a key for your room and another key for a lock (10 euro deposit all in all) -- made it very safe. there are 2 computers available, but the hostel is HUGE and the line for use can get pretty antsy in the evening.

lovely and helpful reception staff! very clean and very close to town. rooms were very warm when we went and a little cramped, but clean and comfortable. the only suggestion we'd make it limiting the time people spent on the internet, as there are only 2 computers and some people were spending hours on them.

If you dont book it through Hostelbookers it is quite expensive (like 16-17e/night) but through Hostelbookers it was affordable. Nice place, big lockers, clean, friendly staff, hostel bar was good. We saw a lot of clubbers.

decent common areas- no A/C and the open windows attracted some bugs, but otherwise was fine.

Reasonably clean and met some friendly people, but the staff were not overly friendly and both the staff and the hostel website were unapologetically misleading about how to get to and from the hostel, so I got lost on the way there and on the way home. It is also a bit noisy (trains or trams rather than partying) and although I went on a Wednesday, there was no Blues music as advertised, which was disappointing.

Great hostel with a very comfortable dorm and great bar. Major flaw was the 150 euro deposit we had to pay on arrival. It was refundable at the end of our stay, but it was an unreasonable amount for backpackers to pay upfront. When we booked, we were told we had to pay a deposit but the amount was never specified. We never expected to have to pay such a large amount for a hostel. Other than that, the hostel itself was clean, secure and fun.
