Awesome place. The staff is amazing and treat you like family. Rooms are very large. Right by the 4,6 tram which makes for a great location.

Wow ! Very beautiful architecture with high ceilings. Amazing clean bathroom. Located in the center, near the Danube river. What you see is what you get and much more !

The most social and friendly hostel I have stayed in. There is always someone to go out with. Staff especially Peter were so helpful. I had so much fun and they are close to bars, shops, Parliment building, st stevens basilica. It was also soooo cheap only 10euro a night.

The hostel is very small but with the right group of people, which we definitely had, it is a blast! I had so much fun that I extended my stay an extra night! One of the owners can be a little rude but other than that the rest of the staff was fantastic and fun.

We had a great stay! Good location and nice staff! Think they should put up mirrors in the rooms though..except for that the apartment was very nice and cozy and had a well equipped kitchen.

This is a great Hostel! One of the greatest in my whole trip. The staff is great, always ready to help, and guide you through one of europe's nicest cities. I really felt like at home at the groove. The only bad thing was that they didn't have any space for us to stay one more night.

Overall this is a small but good hostel. Its got more of a homely feel to it trying to be more coach surfing than a normal hostel. If you want a place where you can kick back and be anonymous then dont go here but if you want to be in the middle of things then give it a go.

You can feel this as soon as you enter the hostel, I could see many people looking amazed and glad to be there just as they got in... The common room and the dorms are so nice that it is sometimes hard to leave them for going out or visiting the city... although the hostel is right in the center of the town, near the Donau and many sightseeings and bars! The rooms are especially spacious andclose

This hostel is really fantastic...it's only new, so everything is clean and the staff are great. It was a little bit hard to find (it's on level 2!) but once they get their singage up it should be fine. Would highly recommend it!
