Very good location - near the subway and trams and but if you prefer walking - not far to the main city sites as well, very close to the Jewish quarter with its thriving night life. Friendly and very helpfull staff. Clean rooms and bathrooms (sharing is not a big problem as there are only a few rooms in the... More

The name of the hostel states perfectly how the hostel is: friendly and kind! It is a small hostel with just a few rooms. It gives you the feeling you're at home. The staff is always eager to help you and gives you a warm welcome. The rooms are small, but have everything you need. The price/quality ratio is perfect.... More

Stay in this hotel was excellent. We were many times in Budapest, even in 4* hotels, but we did enjoy at most Friends hostel. We felt there like at home. There is everything what you need. Close to center, close to sights, close to railway station. Hotel personal is very nice and cheerful and prices very low comparing with other... More

After a rocky start to finding the place a was given a very friendly and warm welcome to Budapest from the girls on reception ! Not only did I try to check in very early but the girls made sure my room was cleaned quicker so I could check in ( I did just arrive from a 12 hr train... More

Its a great hostel Budapest. The staff is more like familly than the rude type. I checked out at 10 am (last checkout at 11), the staff wondered that I would check out that early! The rooms are spacious and ok for the price, but with out own bathroom or TV

Friendly hostel with a great location in the centre of Budapest. Staff were helpful and the hostel was clean and with good facilities. For large or loud groups this hostel probably isn't the best idea as it is located in a building where people live there, so noise late wouldn't be appreciated. We had no problems and would be happy... More

First off, the hostel is cheap, clean and in a great location. However, the group I was staying with aggravated the guy who was there (we were apparently 'too loud'), and the response was him calling us 'retards' and being incredibly rude instead of diplomatically sorting the problem. He made us all pay a 'deposit', which he specified no terms... More

Normally I am not one for reviews – British reserve usually constrains me – but on this occasion I feel compelled to find the solace that only anonymous internet bashing can provide, all in the language of a strongly worded letter, of course. The hostel-owner, let’s call him Fidel for the sake of said anonymity, undoubtedly has unresolved childhood issues.... More

The hostel itself was lovely, however the hostel was incabable of catering for a large group and we found on many occasions that the manager made unreasonable requests and in fact referred to our group as 'retards'. Also in resolving a situation that arose with one of the showers he demanded that we all complete good reviews for the hostel.... More
