2 thumbs up! This hostel is great -- big breakfast, good security, ensuite dorms, internet, common rooms -- but of course you have to pay for all these amenities, so for a hostel it's pretty expensive (then again I went there during the soccer cup, which might explain the price).

An excellent hostel with a real good fun atmosphere in the bar, no matter what age you were. The free map they provide and advice from the reception staff was invauluable and made me stay another night. I made many friends here. I reccomend this hostel

Great fun, good bar in the basement. Staff were very nice. Its a little out of the way but the tram runs right past it. The security was very lax though, they let anyone into the luggage room and didnt check to see if people were staying there before letting them upstairs.

The doonas were quite smelly, the staff not too helpful. It was a bit too impersonal... And they kept putting people in our room who would show up at 1am, make lots of noise whilst showering, then get up at 4.30 am and leave, so i didn't really get to sleep that well....

the front desk staff were very helpful and friendly,but the cleaning and breakfast staff were rude and very unhelpful. When you pay 3.5 euros for a breakfast,you at lease expect some bread with it. once it had ran out (before we got there) they would not put anymore out,even though they had some.... more the front desk staff were very helpful and friendly,but the cleaning and breakfast staff were rude and very unhelpful.

Our stay here was my friends first time in a hostel and she was impressed; i on the other hand stayed here in May so i knew i wanted to return. Location is very close to the metro, you get a free drink voucher when you arrive and Vienna is fab - what more do you need.
