-I booked a double room with a shared bathroom, but was upgraded to the most beautiful and homey little studio which I was so thankful for! It featured a fully equipped kitchen and a washing machine which was super convenient. Everything was very clean. -I extended my stay and stayed 3 more nights in the female ensuite dorm room. This room was also very nice and clean, the bed was comfortable, the shower and toilet are in separate rooms which I loved. -the staff and volunteers were all super nice and welcoming all throughout my stay. I had such a great experience thanks to them. -it’s the perfect place to meet interesting people from all over. I loved the daily pay as you wish dinners, and the common area is very inviting. I made some friends during my stay (which isn’t always easy for me as an introvert), the vibe in the hostel was great and made it easier. -they have free lockers to use before/after check in which was very convenient. My huge backpack fit in just fine. -the location isn’t very central, but it’s easy to get anywhere using public transport, which I liked. There are also grocery stores and restaurants nearby.

Loved the appearance of the room, how clean it was and how much space I had as one guest (2 big cupboards below the bed and 3-4 smaller cupboards overhead). The wing that I was in was nicely furnished and showers and toilets were very clean. Staff is helpful and friendly. I also loved the easy check-in and the idea with codes for the doors is genius (no key cards to lose or leaving behind, yay!). The kitchen is big, has a fully automatic coffee machine and everything you might need to cook. Would stop over here again!

This is probably the best hostel I have stayed in Europe. The room is so clean and nice. The room’s design is aslo great, it gives you comfort and privacy. I love the small locker where you can charge your phone and lock your laptop when you’re going out. I love the small fan also. The location is great. It is near all of the tourist destinations. Breakfast and coffee at the hostel are incredible. I was very lucky that all of my roommates were so nice, polite and quite. I could give 20 stars if possible!

Looking for a hostel?

Budget travelers know there's no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: Save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a little more.

    Great student accommodation, certainly beats a hostel. Clean, with really friendly staff. Centrally located with great restaurants and bars in the area. If you just need a cheap, clean and safe somewhere to put your head down, this is well worth a look

    The hostel was easy to get to from the metro station, there are also trams nearby. Locality seems quite safe, and active even after hours of the day. The hostel is well kept, even the common area, you may even plug in and work peacefully if your on a working holiday, for the digital nomads 😀. The breakfast was a big spread with many options and quality. Overall, I highly recommend if you are looking for a good yet budget friendly accommodation.

    Best hostel I've stayed at yet. Comfortable spacious rooms (with chairs!) and the nightly pay-what-you-can dinner made it super easy to meet other travellers. Met a lot of cool people to explore the city with, and was able to fall asleep at 10pm no problem if I wanted to. If you stay anywhere else in Vienna you're a fool. And cheap beer!

The rooms are clean, big and have a separate bathroom and toilet which makes things so much easier! The hostel also has a bar that works during the night, where you can also play pool, beer-pong etc. so it's a great place to meet new people as well.

    Great location close to a lot of cool bars and restaurants. Such a cozy lobby where it was nice to hang out both alone and with friends. The hostel bar was AMAZING and I ended up staying there a lot of the nights instead of going out. Great place to meet new people!! Also the people at the reception were so nice and welcoming! Great beds and free lockers. Absolutely the best hostel I've ever been to.
