    The bathrooms have very low celling so if you are a tall person you'd need to squat there.

    The property was very clean, there were many bathrooms and showers. The location is great as well.

    Our door either locked or did not locked during the day or night. The storage boxes under the bed are misaligned, so it is hard to align the hook to place the lock to keep our belongings safe. Doable but a pain.

    Enjoyed meeting other backpackers, bathrooms were constantly kept cleaned which is impressive considering the high number guests. Coed dorms, there were twelve of us in one large space. They do have other smaller rooms with fewer sleepers. Large kitchen and plenty of space to store food for large crowds.

    This is a personal problem is probably not related to anything you need to know. There’s a person who’s been to Talon many times. I found it very hard to renegotiate my way around from this new location. It’s not their problem it’s mine, but I didn’t solving in three days. I always walk out the door going to wrong way and ended up at a long way from where I wanted to go again I don’t think you should take this with March for you.

    Great Staff and kitchen. It’s a relatively new place, so there are some rough edges, but they don’t matter.

    A good hostel located right in the heart of Tallinn’s tourist district. Because of this, it can be noisy, as there is a lively bar in the same building. It’s not a problem for me, but it might be for some.

    The shower cabinets and toilets could have been cleaner.

    The 24-hour reception was a lifesaver, perfectly accommodating my need for a late check-in and an extremely early check-out. Despite my very short stay, the comfortable bed and clean linens ensured a good rest. The location was excellent.

    The atmosphere is quite young and party-like, while other hostels tend to be more "normal" (more quiet peolpe, more respect...). Here there was a lot of noise from people talking and shouting in the hallways, people coming and going to parties throughout the night, even people arriving and leaving with suitcases at all hours of the night. The walls are as if they weren't there, since it's a very old building, and you can hear everything if you are in the room… A girl was (only one day) playing an instrument at 9:00 p.m. in the hallway next to my room while I was trying to sleep. I told the receptionist, and she fixed it. The hostel has three floors and no elevator. In my case, I was on the top floor, and carrying my suitcase was difficult, but I asked the receptionists for help, and they helped me going up with the suitcase every time. One day I tried to grab a glass from the kitchen to drink a Coke I'd bought at reception, but I couldn't find one. The few there were had been left dirty...

    The best is the location, 5-10 minutes from all the important buildings in the historic center. The staff is very friendly, always willing to help.

    I was quite upset AFTER bookings when I read reviews of bedbugs. Reservation wad done so I decided to take a risk. However in my double private bedroom I didn’t encounter problems.

    The sound-proofing of the rooms are not ideal, some earplugs are definitely recommended to bring with for the bad sleepers. Also my room had a Wi-fi router emitting flickering blueish lights all night which was a bit annoying.

    The hostel is located in the centre, the staff was helpful, the single room is spacious, and the toilets were well-maintained

    There is only one toilet on the first floor and it is shared amongst many dorm rooms and everyone using the kitchen, the common room and the co-working place. It would be nice to have curtains around the bed for privacy and help keep the light out.

    The location is very central. The room is spacious with good lockers. Comfortable bed. There is a large common room and a large kitchen.
