Wonderful stay. I only had one night but I really enjoyed it and I had a very comfortable rest. Would definitely go back again.
This is one of the most beautiful, clean , welcoming, gorgeous places I’ve ever stayed in my life and I’ve traveled the entire world and stayed at 5 star resorts and hotels. Never mind that this is a hostel, don’t let that little tittle fool you. This place is situated in a beautiful park surrounded by delicious restaurants, an outdoor movie theatre where you can order drinks. It’s literally a compound of cuteness. The trains are right there, it’s just such a lovely place to stay and I feel so lucky to have been there. The vibes are so positive , there’s even a nice cat that freely roams the property and interacts w the guests. Everything about it is a charming treat and I am excited to return when I come back to Budapest..
Hostel was amazing but the fact I had to walk around everytime I left the hostel a hour and a half because the entrance closer to the place was closed by police and they made us walk round really ruined my stay because everytime I had to do this trip it. Took 1 hour 30 mins and imagine I just want to get my jacket and this makes me not want to go back out. I go out and come back 4 times that’s 6 hours traveling just to get in your place of stay
Bon emplacement en face du fleuve belle terrasse pour prendre le petit déjeuner ou se poser en soirée , bon on m'a quand même piqué une serviette de plage 😂
Les chambres ça va des rideaux aux lits seraient mieux , et les.tiroirs sous les lits un peu galère à ouvrir car il faut les sortir complemement et ça fait du bruit dans la pièce surtout le soir .
There was some problem by other guest but they had solved it well and really satisfied with that.
They know how to treat guest and how to deal with people.
And there were beautiful terrace with river view!!
It located at Magerit island at the centre of the city which is easy to walk to city centre and good to have a running at whatever time i want.
Would stay again if i go to Budapest again!
Highly recomend!
불쾌한 다른 게스트가 있었는데 잘 해결해 줬습니다!

Der Ausblick auf die Donau beim Frühstück und die Lage mitten auf der parkähnlichen Insel sind unschlagbar . die ganze Nacht verkehrende Straßenbahnlinie 4 bzw 6 fährt im 3 Minuten Takt und man Wurst von der Haltestelle nur noch ca 8 Minuten zu Fuß bis zum Hostel laufen.
La ubicación es un plus, la isla es super tranquila y hay un camión que entra y sale de la isla y hace paradas continuas. El staff fue muy amable.

Es gibt eine tolle Terrasse mit Blick auf die Donau auf der man fantastisch frühstücken kann. Die Lage ist ganz wunderbar. Ohropax sollte man natürlich nicht vergessen, da an der Rezeption schon morgens laut Musik läuft. Menschen mit Katzenhaarallergie sollten den Manager darum bitten die Katze aus der Küche zu verscheuchen.
Очень хороший хостел. С 22-00 соблюдается тишина. Поскольку хостел на острове, очень чистый воздух, вокруг деревья, потрясающе. Вечером недалеко поющие фонтаны. До Парламента - минут 10 ходьбы, просто отлично. Можно спуститься к воде под мост и смотреть на Дунай. Сам номер небольшой, но уютный и чистый. Внизу бар, всегда можно перекусить, если что.
It would be hard to find more disinterested and inhospitable staff than the one's that work here if you tried. It's a pity because it used to be a great hostel
