Low Price for Summer Season. Friendly and helpful host(s) Free Water Free Locker for personal stuff elevator in the Building so it's easy to pack all ur things upstairs. In the 8 Bed Room was also a table with chairs and a bin. Next to every bed is one Power outlet and a small basket for ur personal things. Easy to get there with S-Bahn or the Underground Possibility to store own food or drinks in the refrigerator in the kitchen. Definitely wanna come again , when I visit Hamburg

The bed I had was a little bit loud when I moved but that's normal in Hostels I guess 😀 The noises in the night could disturb (Traffic,etc.) But for me it was okay

The women's dorm and bathroom were clean and light with big windows. The bed was comfortable enough and bed linen clean. There were table and vanity in the room, as well as small cupboard with no lock. In info there were locked little space. There was tea and coffee machine too. Elevator to get in the 2nd floor. The staff was friendly. The location was best in this place, right next to metro stop and close to city center. Great for one night stay, wouldn't stay for whole holiday.

The place was quite worn out and it was a bit odd the main door was almost open. No towels included in the stay.

I had the feeling I was staying at someone's home. The place was small but it didn't feel too small. It was clean and the kitchen seemed to have all the necessities. The bed was soft, I liked it but my back did not agree. The metro station was right in front of the place but you could also walk to the city center. There was a grocery store and restaurants close by too. They got me in an all female dorm even tho I paid for a mixed one. That was awesome.

The pillow was weird. It was huge and really flat and floppy. The room was hot but the fan helped a bit. The weather wasn't so hot when I was staying so it cooled down pretty good but in hotter times it might be awful. There is a door in front of the building to get in but there aren't really any signs outside so I walked all the way to the other side because maps showed it to me like that. I could get inside from the back too but it was an unnecessary walk.

The location is very good. Right in front of the Berliner Tor Station. Not as loud as I was afraid of. The room was okay for the price. I only used the bathroom either quite early in the morning or before it got busy at night, so all and all clean and wasn’t uncomfortable. The toilet was kinda smelly, but nothing horrifying.

The bathroom only has one single hook behind the door. So be prepared and creative about putting your belongings (clothes, towel, roomkey etc) in the shower.

Staff amazed me. Were incredibly helpful with my flights moving and cancelling on me constantly, changes of plans, and allowing my friend to check in with my information. They stayed up late so that we wouldn't be stranded without our room, and I'm incredibly thankful for their effort.

There were some spider webs in corners of the room, and my partner said that the showers had hair in the drains. Could use more pillows if possible to request or an extra charge for one. But other than that, it felt great.

It isn't a party hostel for teenagers; ideal for everybody else. location: walking distance to bus station, a bit more to the trains. Collective transport in front of the hostel. Inexpensive super markt some meters away. room: spacious, much air through the wide window. staff: take care of the hostel every moment. So it is clean, ordered, good organized. luggage: free before check in; inexpensive after check out other facilities: free tea, inexpensive coffee and cacao in machine; free security lockers

This is was just the perfect arrangment for my short stay in Hamburg. The hostel is perfectly located and extremely accessible. I was also extremely happy with the staff. I arrived late at the airport and they welcomed me outside of check-in hours. Excellent communication! Furthermore, during my stroll around the city I manage to leave my luggages at the hostel with no extra cost. I would considering staying here again if I was to travel to Hamburg.

Just in front of subway/metro station. Got a Chinese grocery store underneath and a large major grocery store not very far. Was functionally perfect for a short stay over, had plenty of common showers, had a large communal table, room was clean.

Room was small with bed going from wall to wall. Our room was facing street so had choice of street noise or a bit too warm. A fan would have been nice but am being picky here.

I liked location and i liked there is a asian super market under the hostel. There is a metro stop right in front of it. At check out time they allowed me to leave my luggage for a long time and stay there until the bus time. There are lockers out of the room. Also I left my luggage in my room in first day but nothing happened.

There aren't locker in the room.

The place is nice and clean. Kitchen is available for everyone to use. Free tea and hot water. Hostel is very close to the main railway station and the center. The stuff is very friendly.

The doors open and close with a sound of the card so it was disturbing me a bit bcs it’s a hostel room and several people were living with me. If maybe to make the card opening soundless that would make a great difference. But it might not a very big deal if a person sleeps deep.
