Liked: Location was the only redeeming factor. Yet Lviv is so compact, and with so many other hostels it is not worth it.

Disliked: It was very dirty. There was a permanent terrible smell. Lack of common space. Very dark. Very damp. Minimal facilities- tiny kitchen, again very dirty. Only one toilet and one shower. Compared to other hostels we have stayed at in Ukraine this was of a poor standard and was comparibly poor value for money.

Liked: The staff was really great and the people who stayed at the same time as well. It was really clean and there is a nice atmosphere, maybe because it is quite small... The location is just perfect and Lviv is a great city!

Disliked: Nothing.

Liked: Great central location, friendly staff

Disliked: The stairs to the hostel were under construction. However, that means soon they will be new. ;-) But for the moment there were substitute stairs outside in the backyard.

Liked: Really loved the location. The staff is fantastic and so helpful.

Disliked: If you don't have a flashlight at night it can be pretty dangerous getting upstairs. It looks like the whole building is about to be condemned on the inside and you are basically walking on wooden walkways and stairs that have been put in. But hey, it was an adventure! Even though my first instant impression when I walked in at midnight was "you have got to be kidding me, am I being punked" It turned out to be a great place and I would stay there again.

Liked: This is the best hostel I've stayed at. It's small and easy to meet other travellers but most importantly all the staff are really lovely people and very helpful - they gave us so many tips on events and where to go for the best food and views. The location is right on the square so it really couldn't be any better. I really don't think our stay in Lviv would have been so amazing if we hadn't stayed here!

Disliked: Claire left no negative feedback.

Liked: My friend and I stayed at this hostel, and it kicked a**. Denis, the owner, is one of the coolest and most laid back guys whom I've ever met. He gave us all of the needed information about where to go and what to do. The hostel itself is very clean and taken care of. What's even better is that it's located right at the center and everything is walking distance from it. Highly recommend!-Constantine and Evgenia
