Austria
I loved this hostel. I personally think it was one of the best I have been. The staff was superb. Starting at check-in when Virgine showed me around nicely. Also the other staff (Redd and Ezra) are amazing people who make you feel welcome the moment you enter the hostel. Moreover, the living room and the backyard is a big hangout spot to meet new crowds and build friendships, with for me as a solo traveler is one of the most important things. I enjoyed the stay so much that I extended twice. Thank you so much!

The rooms are clean. The toilets are cleaned 5 times a day! The staff is really friendly and helpful! You even a lounge area, a nice rooftop area, a big kitchen and even a small gym. The location is perfect (directly in the CBD)! Not the most cheap hostel for backpackers, but still affordable! Had a great time here!

Lower budget hostel, everything is the cheapest version of things but it's comfortable enough. Air conditioning definitely worked, bedding was comfy and both workers and guests were largely respectful of each other during my stay. Was great to have breakfast included even if it was jut bread and cereals, very convenient if you just want some fuel to get out the door. Was a fine experience for someone who wanted somewhere to sleep, shower and walk out.
TinaSolo traveler -

It was a basically all round practical place to stay for me. The staff were professional and the amenities were as expected in a budget hostel. I needed a place to store my baggage safely with valuable equipment inside and this was done with a locked and videod room which I appreciated.
