    Front door is really loud, i was afraid to wake up everybody at 5 o'clock T_T

    Clean place, beds are comfortable, there are curtains on beds and also personal sockets, there's a kitchen (didn't use it, but anyway that's cool!), washing machine. Hostel is situated close to Štrba station (20 min) and Tatranský Lieskovec (5-7 min).

    There's no reception so if you have any issues or are confused by anything on arrival it can be hard to figure it out. Sometimes staff are there.

    Great facilities, very clean, nice beds with privacy curtains. Has a plug by the bed.

    They say they have EV charging, which is technically true, but it's in a tight garage that's not easy to access. There's only an ordinary 220V wall outlet (so you need to bring your own charger), and they charge 0.40 EUR/kWh. It's not convenient at all, and I recommend using this option only in emergencies. As an alternative, I suggest using the ZSE charger at Štrbské Pleso, which is even cheaper.

    Nice place, the balcony, quite sociable. Great place to meet other hikers.

    At night you can’t see the entrance or any signals. It was very frustrating because I walked in front of the place three times but couldn’t see it.

    Modern facilities including sockets and curtains allowing an amazing rest.

    Really nice hostel vibe. Sociable, but you can also escape into your own space if you like. Literally the most convenient location if you’re looking to hike in the Mountains (and be there early to beat the crowd). Beds are cozy, views are beautiful, town is quiet. Everyone is nice :-)

    This hostel is basically a verry nice apartment you share with other people. Laid back vibe, good beds and a clean place. The area is beautiful with a good infrastructure.

    Only 2 of 6 beds in the dorm had lockers. Kitchen could do with more pots and utensils etc. Key box system for front door is risky - if one guest fails to return it, you're stuck outside with no staff on site.

    Great location for hiking from Strbske Pleso, and based in a nice small town with a basic shop. Small hostel with 2 dorms means you get to know people quickly. Power outlet, shelf and lamp in every bed make life easier.

    Convenient and comfortable, would stay here again

    Remote controlled management is not my preference (there is no one on or near the site), but probably more cost effective (compared to the Polish Tatra, accommodation in the area is expensive, especially if you are just one person travelling with public transportation). The location in a new neighbourhood of Tatranska Strba with many five-storey-high apartmentblocks is not exactly cosy. Ensure you have viewed the instruction video on how ro get in (on their website) and make it available offline. I did not and it took me quite some time to apply the different codes and get in. Make sure you have light in case you arrive after dark.

    If you want to explore the south side of the Tatra mountains it is a convenient place to stay, as there is a regular (mountain) train up to Strbske Pleso (lake area), as well as a bus service to Poprad. Stops within walking distance. Alternatively you can hike up (blue trail). The apartment is modern and comfortable with excellent facilities such as hot shower (with bath!), WiFI and a well equipped kitchen. Beds are comfortable and the place was clean. The staff person online was friendly and helpful.

    Very nice apartment on the fifth floor of a block. Everywhere is clean, tidy, the beds are comfortable, the bathroom too. The entrance is a bit complicated. You need two access codes.. Ask the owner for the entry code one day in advance.

    The only thing I didn't like is that the hostel is in 5th floor, which is annoying after a difficult hike. Other than that everything was amazing

    The hostel is tiny and very cozy, easy to reach with public transport.
