Although I only stayed here for one night, it was the best nights sleep I have had in ages! The place was clean, wifi was great, and not a bad location either.. would suggest catching a taxi though if coming at night - should cost no more than 1000 forints.

Overall the hostel was quite nice, though there were some 'strange' things. When we wanted to pay in Forintes, the hostel owner used an exchange rate that was quite high compared to the exchange rates in town. Moreover we had the impression that not all reviews were written by real customers of...

One of the coolest hostels ive stayed at. Not often do you get to stay up on a big apartment. Huge ceilings, free internet, great staff. Right next to the white bridge which is a pretty good centre for everything. Small, so you get to meet some pretty cool people. I would definitly recommend this...

Caminitos is a tiny hole in the wall, to rest your head. The location isnt too bad, but dont expect the owner to be overly helpful. There is zero atmosphre....and it is the first place in my entire 3 months travel i have seen a cockroach...including on the street.

Bathrooms were rather filthy. The bathtub wasnt cleaned and the plugs werent emptying the tub or sinks properly because they seemed to be blocked up with hair. Other than that we had a lovely stay at caminito, it was nice to be in a smaller hostel, everyone was very friendly and chatty.

More than satisfied with everything. Cheap, clean and cozy. Very good advisement from the staff about what to do in the city. The DVD collection is great. I had the feeling like staying at home so was hard to leave. Actually, I extended my stay. Definetly, I would be in Caminito again.

Ver ynoisy because the rooms back onto the common room which you have to walk through to take a shower. Bathroom wasn't too clean although the room was good. Im sure there are much better places to stay in Budapest for the price.
