79%Station Hostel for Backpackers

Room was great, brilliant location. Toilet stank because of Urinal but if you go further along the corridor there was a cleaner one. Generally a very good stay and would definitely recommend!

Great location! Normally you pay a lot for convenience but this hostel is very reasonably priced, and right next to the train station.

This place is FANTASTIC! It is literally a three minutes walk from the main train station AND the dom AND food, laundry, and the post office. Had a good vibe, free wifi, and clean facilities. No complaints!

Good hostel for stopping through. Kind of far from night life, but super close to train station.

It was OK, if you didnt want to have a shower. The rooms were clean, but the showers were either pretty stinking or you could be seen by the person in the next door shower.

This is a solid hostel. It is clean and organized and in a pretty good central location for getting to the sights as well as the good restaurants. I enjoyed it very much.

Staff was very healpfull in all mathers, the prices are good. Only minus side was that people and traffic noises were heard very cleary at night even you closed the windows. Free Internet is big plus and 24 h healpfull staff. I liked very much staying there.

The staff were stiff and unfriendly. There is not much character in the place or opportunity to mingle with other guests (aside from in bar). It felt like a hospital, but the location is fantastic and I can't complain about the cleanliness. So close to train station and central.

Room was spacious but our floor smelt like wet mouldy carpet! The toilets had a foul public urinal smell and the showers were dirty and flooded. Good location near train station and very helpful staff. Breaky was very cheap and tasty!

the toilet nearest to us on the first floor smelt bad, despite being clean...air freshener would be good. fortunately there were pleasanter ones a little further away on the same floor. on the whole, the place was quite clean, and the staff nice and helpful.

Nice access, but my room looked like a hospital and not so clean there. However this fantastic location can be a important factor in case you want to see Klön smoothly.

The hostel is guite near from the Koln main station,about five minutes by foot. There's a soft bed in the room, it's very comfortable! Cause it's near by the train station, so it's a little bit noise in the night, but it's okay ! Any way, it's a good hostel, i had a nice trip here.

They stuck me in a room full of guys, one of whom walked around naked all the time. I woke in the night to find him standing over my bed watching me sleep. When I said something he proceeded to walk out of the room and wander around in the hostel naked. In the morning I went to use the bathroom and there was poo smeared on the wall and on the toilet paper cover. Avoid this hostel at all costs!close

Kitchen facilities were fairly spartan - 1 stove, 1 sink, no benchspace (the electric kettle had to sit on a hotplate), and a note on the fridge said it would be cleaned every 2-3 days.
