Each private room at the Maverick is equipped with a large flat-screen cable TV with more than a 100 channels, while dormitory rooms come functionally furnished. Bathroom facilities can be ensuite or shared with other guests. The stay was truly exceptional.

Among the facilities at this property are a shared kitchen and a shared lounge, along with free WiFi throughout the property. The property is 1.8 km from the city centre and 600 metres from Hungarian National Museum. I never rated before cause I’m just too lazy. But really happy with this time. - Great location: near tram 4 and 6 going to the inner city directly, lots of nearby bus stops, shops and restaurants ( + you can visit Pho ‘n go for authentic vietnamese food: bun ca, bun oc, bun bo hue, com ga chien gion) - Clean: I woke up and saw they were cleaning. I went to brush my teeth and another round of bathroom and kitchen cleaning - Convenient: 4 bathrooms for each men/women room (hot water every times of the day), 5 toilets, paper stacked. Kitchen equipped with 6 cooking hobs, microwave, dishwasher, 2 sinks, 2 big refrigerators, kitchenware, dining area, multiples bins whose garbage is taken out daily. A common area with a projector so you can relax. - The bedroom: warm (even hot) during 1 degree day. Cozy and comfortable bed sheets. Curtains for privacy. They also have a locker that is big enough to keep your carry on suitcase and a small one underneath the bed for your shoes. - Friendliness and hospitality: Of course they keep your luggage if you checked out early. But they go an extra step to let you take a shower/use any facility even after you checked out. This is the winning point for me. The staffs are nice who will helped you with any questions.

I really like that it is designed like a family home and I felt like I was home. Besides that the people who were staying there were amazing. They are a friend for life to me. We really enjoyed every single moment we spent together. There was a Slovak chef there and he made us laugh every time and cook for us which was amazing.
