    I was on the 4th floor with no lift available. That's a lot of stairs 😅 Bed was really creaky. Needed a new frame.

    Nice neighbourhood, 7 minutes on tram to City centre Good privacy. Fairly quiet. Clean.

    The bed and mattress were comfortable however I agree with the other reviews that the bed was noisy every time you moved however once asleep I didn't notice and it didn't wake me. I found the hostel to be as I had expected from the other reviews so no real surprises either way.

    Great location on the tram route D. Hostel was welcoming and secure. The facilities I used on the 3rd floor were always clean. Lovely courtyard garden space to relax.

    Very hot, there's no air conditioner in the room, plug socket wasn't near bed, an average comfortable bed

    Good wi-fi connection on third floor made me schocked, clean room, bed sheets and towels, good location to centre of town and other attractions, excellent access by public transport (trams run very often), no problem with check-in and out, fair price in terms of quality.

    The shared showers could have been a little bit cleaner but it is what is to be expected for this price.

    Great value for the price. Some comments mentioned that the wifi gets bad in the higher floors and that you need to rent a towel if you don't have your own but I was provided a towel for free and wifi was great on the last floor.

    I would recommend the one person room as they are in better shape. The 2 beds bedroom have awful walls, the beds are almost falling down and the vibe is just awful. The manager… the only person in a 5 days Vienna trip in the middle of a terrorism threat that was awful. His manners, the underlying hate towards me like if I wasnt actually paying for the service. I work in customer service and that’s why I always put my nicest voice and attitude towards the people who do the same as me but this man has a lot of inner work to do. Everyone in this city was so friendly and nice and giving to swifties and this dude kind of even threaten me to kick me out if I dare to bring my bf to my bedroom and I was actually asking him how much extra it was to add the changes for to of my 4 nights. He could have said no and I would’ve understand but he said yes as if it was a favor (I paid and it is a hotel, this are common question or changes in this area) but instead he said yes and ask just the whole communication proccess let me feelinh so uncomfortable.

    The location is great! The ladies from the front desk are great and so, so polite.

    The wooden bed was very old and when I laid down, it generated squeaky noise, very annoying. Also, I barely received the wifi signal in my room and the speed was super slow. Also it said smoking is prohibited in the building, but I always smell the strong cigarette smell in the corridor.

    The location is good near the U bahn station and the price is reasonable.

    The room did not match the pictures presented on Booking.com. The furniture was very old, and scary looking. The bed was not comfortable and creaked with every movement. The shower was dirty, the temperature was hard to regulate, and I found a big moth there (pinky size).

    The location is really nice, pretty close to the city centre. Also, you can use public transportation, the stops are not far from the Dormitory. The place is located in a close vicinity to Lichtenstein Palace, a very beautiful palace and park. The staff was very welcoming and helpful.

    Only one plug 🔌 in the room, and not at the bed side. - As many others commented, no hot water for the shower - As many others commented, no fan inside the room and this summer has been 🔥🥵🔥 if you open the window, then you have more tram noises than fresh air...

    Perfect location, with tram, night buses and Franz Josep Bahnhof (within one km). Lots of restaurants, supermarkets, etc. - Quiet neighborhood - Super price with 24h front desk - Very attentive staff!

    Do not expect luxurious rooms (ideal for someone for whom accommodation does not play a big role). The WIFI was weak on the 3rd floor. There is no elevator.

    The location is excellent, quiet neighborhood, the price is excellent, staff speak excellent English and were very helpful. The place is open 24/7. Inside the building there is a garden where it is quiet and ideal for doing work on the computer and for relaxation. The tram station is a 1-minute walk from the accommodation.
