Liked: Easy to get to from the train station, and could walk into town from there too. Good kitchen facilities and free washing machine/dryer. It was pretty empty when I stayed so not too noisy but also not many people to meet!
Disliked: It's quite dark and gloomy, and my room didn't have a window so I wouldn't like to stay when it's full!

Liked: Location was good. It was quiet. I parked a car just outside the entrance. You get an entrance shot of beherovka or smth.
Disliked: I did see a review about bug bites, but I thought that someone couldnt probably be serious. After two nights at the hostel I had SEVERAL BITES. Maybe not 5 dozens of them, but at least 10 all over my body. My second guess is that i'm allergic to something at the hostel or hostel's beds... If you do not like bug bites or if you are pretty allergic to things, try another one. And that's pretty sad, because either way It would be a nice hostel :( PS. Breakfast was poor.

Liked: - location close to the city center - easy to find - laptop with internet access for common use - large lockers in rooms
Disliked: - our room had barely no ventilation. With 8 persons inside it was getting stuffy, stinky and hot rapidly - no separate entrance to hostel. You need to get through pub, smoke-filled at evenings and fit with bags into narrow doors between reception desk and people using a laptop mentioned before - no car parking in the neighborhood, even though the hostel mentions it. There is only one parking slot which is likely to be occupied and in addition directly in front of the pub entrance... - overcrowded rooms, two guys sleeping together next to me, etc. ------------------------------------ = not the best deal for that price

Liked: This hostel ranks near the top, loved the ease, convenience, location, free wi-fi, free laundry (with dryer!). Very important to me: a great, english-speaking staff. Met lots of interesting other backpackers. Free laundry bonus, and well equipped kitchen, garden, free towels, free welcome drink – Borovicka. Highly recommend. Seriously, was like coming home. Wonderful, wonderful, wonderful! Thanks for a most enjoyable stay!
Disliked: I do not recall have any negative experience.

Liked: Friendly and helpfull staff, great building with lots of character, great place to meet people, very homely lounge and facilities if you want to save some money for a few nights. great location. very reasonable price.
Disliked: The lockers in the rooms never had a padlock or key provided and included in the original price so security for your possessions was lacking a little, the bar downstairs which you had to walk through was not nopn smoking and sometimes could get really smoke filled but this was little price to pay for a great hostel
