Rooms are spacious and clean. Facilities are also super clean. Location is great, right across the road from the old town and the harbour is one street behind with some cool old buildings. Wifi works great. Staff were lovely, especially the ones doing the fries on the Friday nights. Morning waffles and sauna are great too. Building is old but well soundproofed, street noise isn’t too bad either.

Only minor things, not problems but things that could be improved, in the private room I had the light switch was down the far end of the room and there is no lamp near the bed. Also, you have to leave your room key at the front desk every time you leave the building, and there isn’t always someone there when you come back as there was only one person working the desk each day.

the free sauna and pool in the morning. the free waffles

wifi was broken but I get that it can take time for telcos to come fix that stuff. no hostel group chat or activities

* Ideal location close to old town and relatively close to harbour * clean bedrooms and very spacious * shared bathrooms and toilets were clean too and well maintained (renewal of toilet paper etc.) throughout our stay * luggage storage space before check-in and after check-out is possible due to 24-hour manned reception * 1 liter bowl of dough (approx. for around 16 waffles/8 ppl) is being made every morning by the receptionist for guests so that you can make yourself a waffle for breakfast, however you have to get up early to enjoy!

* shared toilets (we found 3 only) and bathrooms (we found 1 only) are limited on the 2nd floor for more than 10 rooms on that floor * if you stay on the upper floors, you have to climb down lots of stairs to get to the showers in the cellar. However, once there, there are plenty of showers (around 10) and toilets! * when going to the shared showers in the cellar, you have to pass the kitchen: in the morning, people are passing in pyjamas or with only a wrapped towel through the kitchen, where others have breakfast, so that might appear a bit funny or weird to some

Lovely room, great location, amenities were very limited, you could only use the sauna and pool between 9-11am which is kinda annoying when you want to go out and explore on your short stay then chill in the evening. There was free waffles from 9-11 but limited amount so we went down at 10 most mornings for it to of all gone. The price was ok maybe a little overprice for a hostel and limited amenities. But room lovely building lovely and clean staff very rude and act like they can’t be bothered with you. Which is annoying as it’s a nice place to stay otherwise.

Great location, decent and clean room

The room I had is near the busy street so it was a bit noisy. Internet was good at first but then in the evening connection was slow and often breaking. Bathroom was small, but I didn't need much more.

I was surprised with the number if free perks for guests, including a free sauna and waffles in the morning

There were some problems with internet during my stay is the wifi didn’t work

Convenient location

What's wrong with the staff. Like all of them. What are they so Mad about? It's not about culture or nationality but if you are in the hospitality industry serving the customer you need to acquire certain traits. The job at reception is not just a place to earn your pocket money.

The hostel is nice, room was spacious, good for the money. The location was perfect, walking distance to the port and old town. There were also free coffee and waffles batter in the morning for the guest, which is a nice touch.

Only small complains, but for this price nothing too bad: Our light bulb from the bathroom was flickering and we asked at the reception to be checked but I got the response that the handyman is out for the moment. The issue was not solved until we left and the staff was rather bored than very helpful. The nice lady who welcomed us on our first night was friendly and eager to help. Also bathroom was clean but a bit outdated, one small towel per person would be nice and a shower gel beside the small soap.

Honestly, I booked this for meme value because my name is Margaret and I thought it was funny- but this turned out to be the most exceptional hostel. The location for a traveller is exceptional- you’re a stones throw from the old town (you can see fat Margaret from the front door!) and there is a petrol station two doors down- so if you need anything it’s at your door step. The creative city is less than 2km away, even Kadriog Palace is a walkable distance. The old abandoned looking building next to the petrol station offers incredible water views and a very cool vibe if you’re game to climb it. The hostel itself is just beautiful- some of the comfier bunk beds I’ve slept in, they give you linen and a towel at no extra charge unlike most hostels, the sauna and pool are just beautiful- such a nice way to start your day, the rooms are aesthetically absolutely beautiful- timber floors, high ceilings, big open beautiful windows, and the beds are quite far apart so it feels very private, even for a hostel. The kitchen facilities are some of the best I’ve seen in a hostel, it’s exceptionally clean… really I cannot fault this place. The staff are also very friendly. Am I a tiny bit biased because my name is Margaret? Maybe. But if I do return to Tallinn, I’ll be booking this place. Honestly 10/10- thanks for the best hostel experience I’ve had on my trip.

Nothing. Absolutely nothing.

Hostel has a medieval castle kind of vibe. Very cozy and spacious. Facilities are modern and renovated. Bathrooms and showers are comfortable, kitchen is well stocked. Bruno and Kaupo are great employees who are friendly and deliver exceptional customer service. They helped me out when I faced an unexpected situation that required adjustments. Even though it was difficult, they managed to help me resolve the situation in a way that I was extremely satisfied with. I am very grateful for your assistance and thanks again! It is quiet generally but I don't mind it at all. Great if you're not looking for a loud hostel.

Lady with the tattoos was quite rude when I inquired about the laundry.
