It was simply fantastic! Everything about it, the location, the room, the excellent breakfast and most of all, the people! Constance and Mario and the staff go out of their ways to make their guests happy and they were very kind and thoughtful hosts. It really felt like a home away from home. Can’t thank you enough! We would certainly come back again, and again!

    It was one of the cleanest and well-equipped place I’ve ever stayed. Great location. If you arrive before your checkin time you can leave your luggage in the property. We met Alina, one of the host, when we arrived, she was lovely.

    Good communication with hosts and very easy to check in with door code. Excellent location, very easy to walk to various attractions or to catch a bus, and a nice coffee shop on the corner. Room was very clean, and the tea, coffee and welcome chocolates were appreciated. It was also nice and quiet in the room.

    The hostel was in a great location, on a quiet street halfway between the train station and the city centre. Staff were friendly and always around to answer any questions. There were lots of ladies showers, and they were kept very clean. Rooms were spacious and included a desk and a secure locker each (which locked with your room key). The bunk beds were really solidly built and comfortable (not the flimsy squeaky type you get in most cheap hostels!) Coffee, tea and juice available at reception throughout the day was a nice bonus.

    Great location with bus stop nearby to an easy trip into the city centre. Our host was very friendly and informative and told us about the Salzburg Card which would recommend. Our room was clean with a small balcony.

    The location of Pension Ballwein was excellent you had the best of both worlds as the location was quiet and the views amazing and yet you were just a short bus ride from the city centre. We purchased the Salzburg card which we could use for the bus and attractions.

    Pension Elisabeth is a very good place to stay. The hosts were nice and helpful, breakfast excellent. The location is good, not too far from the city centre. Toilets and showers are shared, but I didn't see it as a big issue. Actually, our room had a shower corner with a screen, so it was quite fun to take a shower directly in your room. :-)
