IndiaA really great hostel with super helpful staff, personal lights near each bed, clean facilities, kitchen, common areas and even a computer! Very great value! Highly recommend!
UkraineClose to bus and train stations. The bed was more comfortable than it seemed to be. Shower temperature and pressure was super nice! Also the number of bathrooms and showers outside the rooms, they were always empty! Kitchen was great to use, and the cleaning lady was lovely.
TaiwanWe booked a double room with private bathroom and we were so surprised that there was a small kitchen and a refrigerator inside the room. We had a wonderful time staying here and the price was really cheap!!!!

IndiaClean, close to Brygen, train station, and light rail station which goes to airport. Amenities in the toilet/bathroom always full. Staff are nice and receptionist sometimes stay longer than it scheduled. Check in was easy even though late check in and also they care for bed request.
GermanyI love this hostel so much with very comfy room area, common area and kitchen. It is much appreciated that there are sufficient bathrooms and washrooms and sufficient areas. The hostel also allows free luggage storage before check-in and a short period of time after check-out! The location is so great with just few minutes from train station. It also just takes 10-15 minutes walking distance to Fish markets and Bryggen.
