The staff was excellent! Everything was full of smiles and care from when I arrived to when I left. So happy I booked that place and I'll absolutely be back :)
IsraelLocation was perfect, love that it not far from the city, but independent from city
United States of Americavery good staff, accessibility to public transport near, nice views of the Danube from balcony
ThailandDon't expect luxury, but the professionalism of the staff, the whole concept, and the unique location on Margitsziget will make this an unforgettable experience. You will immediately feel welcome and safe in this hostel, and the generous common area makes it a great for engaging with new people. It is located in an oasis of calm right in the middle of the hustle and bustle of Budapest. You'll find it on an island covered by a park. I highly recommend the experience.
RomaniaThe staff was friendly and helpful, the room clean and warm, the view from the terrace is amazing and the location of the hostel is also very nice.
PolandThe staff was really helpful even though we came pretty late they still let us in and gave us a nice room.
HungaryGreat location, friendly staff(especially Mercédesz(Merszi) and Alexandra(Szandi)), the island is literally right in the middle of it all, standing between Buda and Post, gives access to either direction via Margit híd. The island is also very eco friendly, mainly foot and bicycle traffic, there are roads but traffic is very limited, the bus does come to the island. There is a track that goes around the island for running, nice wide walkways through the inner part of the island, lots of statues and Old structure worth looking at, there is also hot spring but haven't had access to it yet. Also an Olympic size swimming pool a few minutes from the hostel. I really enjoyed my stay, wish that could of spent more time, but I can always return in the future.
United States of AmericaThe two highlights of this place are the manager on reception, Edith! What a lovely person and the location!! You got to try it out because of the beautiful island view if you're visiting Budapest. 🌟
