Nationality Stayed Gender Age Group Overall Rating USA 18th December 2008 Female 18-24 4/5 Comments: Great place, but hard to find. The directions said it was on the 1st floor, but I went up 2 flights of stairs to get there, and the sign was small and easy to miss. Really great place, though.

Nationality Stayed Gender Age Group Overall Rating Australia 17th September 2008 Male 41+ 4/5 Comments: We were moved to the \'other building\' and found it really spacious with good small kitchen, but alas, we had to mop the whole floor (bedroom and corridor etc) and scrub the lav bowls. Later, we found the receptionist from the main building was cleaning our building. She is overworked, and there should be a cleaning person dedicated to that job, after all it is two buildings you are operating! The receptionist was excellent and cannot be faulted.

Nationality Stayed Gender Age Group Overall Rating Canada 20th August 2008 Male 18-24 3/5 Comments: Difficult to get into you need a code to get into the gate which you can't get until you check in which you can't do until you get through the gate. Good location staff were a little disorganised and it lacked any sort of common area just a couch in a hallway and the kitchen which had a table and two chairs free wireless was a plus.

Nationality Stayed Gender Age Group Overall Rating - 8th September 2008 Female 18-24 3/5 Comments: A building of great character. We enjoyed our stay, however the guy running it could have been more forthcoming with useful information and the cleanliness left little to be desired and it had not been modernised in a long time. Overall the central location and convenience and cost were all positives.

Nationality Stayed Gender Age Group Overall Rating USA 18th August 2008 Female 18-24 3/5 Comments: website stated there would be towels, 24 hour reception, and hot water. rooms were overcrowded, dirty bathrooms, didnt once see anyone cleaning in 3 days. good things: wireless internet, comfy beds, good location, secure. it is a very small place so I could hear everything that was going all at all hours of the night. also only 2 showers for at least 20 people.

Nationality Stayed Gender Age Group Overall Rating France 11th August 2008 Male 18-24 2/5 Comments: Concerning the security lockers. At your check-in you will be asked to give a 10€ deposit in exchange for the key for one of them. You can as well count these 10€ are being part of the price your sojourn will cost you since if at your check-out no staff member is there you will have no way to get them back.

Nationality Stayed Gender Age Group Overall Rating USA 8th August 2008 Male 18-24 3/5 Comments: Someone isn't always around. Had to check out at 5 am for my train and I find a note on the door to call a number to check-out. I don't know how many people carry a working phone in Budapest. Clean, not a bad location, but the staff needs to be better organized, they really don't have a clue. If you are looking for a cheap hostel that is clean, this is probably it, just beware of staff.

Nationality Stayed Gender Age Group Overall Rating Greece 29th June 2008 Male 31-40 3/5 Comments: It was a shame to see how much the place has declined in three years. From lovely, cosy and full of character to a dirty, smelly, poorly-staffed, run down, I'd-rather-sit-outisde-in-the-square kind of place
