The room was extremely clean, the manager was very friendly and helpful, we were able to leave our luggage before checking in and after checking out, and the manager went out of his way to organise an early check-in for us as we had been travelling for almost 30 hours before arriving. The location is great and within very easy walking distance of all local attractions. There was some noise from trams passing but earplugs were available at reception.

Amazing stay!

The hostel was so spacious! Unlike other hostels that try to fit as many beds into the room as possible, this hostel really went the extra mile to have open areas in the hostel, they even added a couch in the room!

Friendly service, good bed for the night

The hostel is quite basic but it's also centrally located, comfortable, spacious and the recceptionist/proprietor offered a very warm welcome. There's free tea and coffee, fridges in your room, and it's only a short walk to the main town square. I'd recommend this for a budget stay in Bratoslava.

Disliked: Property conditions & facilities
This property has so much potential. It’s affordable and in a great location. However the beds were terrible with a dip in the middle and the pillows were beyond their life. Also the doors/walls were incredibly thin and you could hear everything from inside the room. The staff were incredibly kind and helpful. I think there’s room for growth and I don’t know that this is somewhere I would stay again.

**Noisy hostel!** This is on me as I didn’t read through the reviews properly and just saw the “exceptional” rating on hotels.com. Pros and cons: + location! It’s right on the edge of the old town, and has a tram stop right outside + clean. + modern + coffee and (I think) tea available all the time and a comfy common space to use and sit in + hostel provides towels + friendly staff - it’s right next to a tram line so every time a tram comes past the building the whole building shakes - it’s above what I would presume is a club? The bass and music just continued until almost 5am. Even with ear plugs I found it very difficult to fall asleep. - Walls are PAPER thin. I could hear my neighbours conversations almost word for word. All the noise from the corridor is heard easily. - only 2 showers and 2 toilets for the whole place (as in 2 male and 2 female). But I imagine if the place is fully booked that’s really not enough, - duvets were RIDICULOUSLY thin. Think height of summer, barely stay on you as they have no weight at all. Beds very creaky but comfortable enough, pillows felt like a lumpy cloud. Needed two to even elevate my head (thankfully there were 2 available as I was alone in a double room). - felt very…. Sterile? It used to be an office building which is very clear, but the rooms are very basic, no artwork, no personal touches, nothing that gives it any soul or makes the place look nice Overall decent. Probably wouldn’t stay again because of the noise though

4/10 Poor

Liked: Staff & service
Check in was easy and the room was as described. Pillows were quite flat and blankets older so comfort was a little less than hoped for. Most importantly- it should be known that it is located above a night club and it was impossible to sleep as the club music and bass was so loud until 4:30am. This wasn’t typical city noise. This was exceptionally loud. While this is not the hostel’s fault, it did impact the stay for sure.

One of my favorite hostels I've stayed in. Very laid back atmosphere, fantastic wifi and common space, very clean and well kept, and really nice staff. Much quieter than some of the other hostels in Bratislava, and in an unbeatable location. Would stay here again, and highly recommend!
