    Social hostel!

    • Bed in 10-Bed Mixed Dormitory Room

    It was a bit hot at night, but I was able to get through it with an ok amount of sleep. Common areas closed at 11 (or midnight, not sure), and there was nowhere to go but to bed if you didn't want to go out to the bars. Breakfast menu seemed a bit pricey for the options.

    This is a great hostel for solo travelers. I had a very memorable social experience and met so many amazing travelers! There's common areas all over the place, inside and outside, and it's easy to meet people. The hostel bar was nice as well. I would stay here again!

    I had a fan and I was really comfortable but it wasn’t super hot. I imagine if the temperature reaches over 30 the room would be really hot.

    Everything. Friendly staff. So much help and information. Well organised. Excellent breakfast menu. Bar, location, clean, comfortable

    The hostel is a friendly oasis of calm quite close to the metro station and bus link to Airport in the heart of Vienna and close to the main shopping street. A great location to visit all the major attractions or just relax in the outside garden. Everyone gathers in the evening for food at the bar and socialize with fellow guests.There are people from all over the world. The beds are comfortable. Rooms are clean with interesting decor and staff very friendly . Very safe for solo travelers or a group.Free Wifi connection is excellent .Sean (N.Ireland)

    Nothing ! All good

    Excellent hostel that exceeded our expectations. Stayed here for 2 nights with a friend in a private room. Good value for money and the room was amazing. Staff were super friendly and helpful with recommendations on things to do. There’s breakfast available in the mornings and there’s also an option to have a veggie dinner made by one of the work volunteers each night for €5! Would definitely recommend. Wish I could have stayed longer

    It opened my eyes on how hostels can be this much social, have friendly staff, have safe enviroment and be this colorful. I used to think hostels are just places to sleep at but now it became more than that for me. I had the opportunity to have fun with people from all over the world. All thanks to you guys.

    Nothing everything was top notch

    This was the most beautiful and accommodating hostel we stayed in on our trip. We booked the studio with the patio which was the perfect set up for myself and my teenaged daughter. We enjoyed the social aspect of community dinners and evening evens but our room was a quiet and peaceful oasis away from it all. You rarely get both. The staff were friendly and helpful, breakfast looked good- we only got coffee and tea which was wonderful. We will be back when we visit Vienna again.

    social area is really good beside it has dead-air space. you need to go out at every half an hour rooms are relax staff was very helpfull, they offer public transportation card from very good price
