The owner was a bit weird and didnt really seem to have a clue but the hostel was comfy and homely. Make sure you take matches for the stove. Great location for the town and really close to the station!

The rooms were dreadfully hot but if you opened the windows all you could hear in the streets were arguements and some sort on phone buzzers going off.

clean, near the main train station so not bad, but a bit far out still. Not much of a hostel though, no staff stay there, even in the day.

A very nice hostel which is more of an appartment. Cose to a metro station and shops. Has a kitchen which is useful and the rooms are nice. A little bit disorganised, however the staff are friendly and should not put people off going. We enjoyed ourself a lot here.

Hostel was a good 40 - 45 min walk from Pest center and metro closes as 11.00pm. Was very close to main train station so good for thoes travelling by Eurail but if you want the city center this is not the place to stay

No real complaints except that checking in is a bit of a task. Best to arrive, dump you bag and just dont worry about it.

Hmmm, interesting place. A bit ramshackle was our experience. Room was fine. Kitchen and bathroom were unclean and needed some attention. Kitchen was tiny and a bit unequipped. One bathroom was out of order. The shower in the working bathroom was not working well. Owner is a nice guy and was running it seeminngly single-handedly but the check-in and payment procedure is poor. Great location for people coming/leaving by train (Keleti).
