Purple Nest Hostel

I was well received by someone who spoke good English, the employees were nice. I could go straight into my room at 1:30 p.m on request. Experience with 7 young Germans in a room was good. Busstop to beach and metro to airport nearby, 8-minute walk from center nearby, could get in 24/07. Shower good and warm, nice bed+pillow.

Just missed some hanging points to dry your wet towel and a general lamp in the bedroom for good visibility in the evening.. Automatic lamp (or at least a bit of light) in the hallway would have been nice though. Nose turned blue because I couldn't find the switch and therefore bumped into a wall :)

As described. Probs a little better actually. Staff were great, really friendly and accommodating. Facilities were great. Location was exceptional. It was clean and the vibe was nice - lots of diversity. The walking tour was highlight of my whole trip. The guides were great and super knowledgeable.

Noisy roommates. Maybe some more signs to encourage people to organise themselves before midnight. Lockers under the bunks were incredibly noisy, even for the most considerate of roommates.

The room is cosy, the terrace gave us the view, the vibe, the option to have our private breakfasts and spot sunrises. The view there is definitely a plus for this accommodation. The staff was so helpful, we had to print our ticket flights and they did it without extra costs, they were there 24/7 for whatever you need, also all of them are super friendly and make your stay comfortable.

The shared toilet doesn't have a lock, they are wrongly placed, since it can't lock or hold the door. We had to improvise and use the "do not disturb" card at the door. The walls are quite thin so noise from others is quite easy to hear, but it didn't disturb much. Not sure when started, but the elevator goes till 4th floor due technical issues, so be mindful that you will have to go up 2 levels by foot, nothing too crazy but worth mentioning cause when we arrived the elevator didn't have this info tagged, but when we left they tried to provide these details (again, amazing staff).

The position of the hostel, very close both to the city center and the metro station. The availability of the staff 24/7 and their friendliness. The cleanliness of the rooms and the common area.

The toilets had a couple of minor issues, like poor lighting or doors that did not lock. I had an unpleasant experience: in the middle of the night, I went to the bathroom just to find an older man smoking in the toilets with loud music on and windows closed. It was weird and scary. Luckily it occurred just once. The kitchen and the kitchenware could be improved, but they are fine.

The staff was very polite and helpful. The beds and pillows were clean and very comfortable, and it was easy to sleep well at night because it's a quiet area. The location is excellent, very central and easy to reach from the airport by taking subway line 3 or 5, followed by a 7-minute walk. Breakfast is available for €5 and includes sweet and savory options, coffee, tea, and juice. There is also a shared kitchen available for preparing food. The bar is also great, open until 1 a.m. with a happy hour from 8-9 p.m. It is possible to obtain a towel by leaving a 5€ deposit, which will be returned upon returning the towel. It is possible to move around comfortably by renting bicycles. All common spaces are always kept clean.

There are only a few shared bathrooms on each floor. There are only two toilet and three showers for all of the guys on the floor, which can be quite limited, especially on weekends when there are more people staying in the hostel.

The room was big and comfortable. Big communal area, several toilets and showers. In the room you have your own locker, light and socket which is very convenient.

I joined the hostel’s WhatsApp group chat and some guests I didn’t know heard my room number and shared it in the group chat as a joke for everyone to see. I understand it’s not the staff’s fault but it would’ve been nice if they had intervened. As a female solo traveler it made me uncomfortable.

İ like the personel most. They are very helpful. You can rent lock from the reception to keep your luggage safe. When you can check out, you can leave your luggage the hostel for free and you can still ise lounge area and the kitchen.

The hostel is cold, as they do not need to put it on during the day. Because nobody is at the hostel. You should warn them if you need it. Especially during winter it is very important.

Great location for our visit, close to metro, and walking distance from our points of interest. The room was nice for a double room in a hostel. The water pressure was good and the towels were clean.

Since it is a hostel keep in mind that it might be noisy, taken into consideration the building itself. So if you are a "sensible sleeper' if would not recommend it. I had no issues and slept well. Personal preference: the toilet paper could be a little bit firmer.

everything!!! The staff was super friendly, an activity was offered every evening, ... I got to know a lot of interesting people, everyone was super openminded. I felt very comfortable and at relaxed in both the shared bathroom and shared bedroom. My friend and I enjoyed our stay and if we could, we would have stayed longer!

The kitchen closes midnight. Since there is someone at the counter 24/7, and there is control, I don't understand why it has to close because a late night snack can do good;)

All the staff was kind and helpful, the check-in and check-out process was quick and easy. The location is really good: less then 15 minutes on foot from the Nord train station and also really close to the Old Town. The hostel offers good and cheap breakfast. Also, you can use their kitchen area and store your food. The rooms and beds were comfortable, the bathrooms were clean. Also, I could leave my luggage in a storage room before the check-in and after the check-out so I had more time for sightseeing :)

Everything was okay! :)
