The hostel has just a few rooms so it shouldn't be a big problem to use the kitchen, shower or toilets. Even though there is only one shower and two toilets. The location is excellent (a relatively quiet street in the old town), and the price is very good. Free towels, free WiFi, and breakfast. Despite some older reviews here,... More

Second time I have stayed here, it still has the same friendly welcome, character filled historical building asbpnd great location in a quieter part of the old town but only a couple of blocks from the central square. Now, though, it has changed hands and an extensive renovation is nearly complete. Greatly spruced up and better and very clean bathrooms.... More

After some renovation this place has become really cozy, while being right in the heart of the Old Town in Tallinn. The staff are really friendly and make you pancakes for breakfast (yum yum). In my opinion this is real good value for money.

This place has location going for it being just off the beaten path of Old Town. The rooms are big and only 6 beds but they are on the floor. The kitchen is not what you would want to cook in and there is no soap to wash anything. FREE BREAKFAST is a loaf of bread. The shower is sideways... More

Lets start with the good about this hostel. The girl who welcomed us was so nice and helpful, giving us a tour of the place and trying her best to give us tips on where to go when we asked. She was great. However, the rest of the hostel left a lot to be desired. The bathroom we used had... More

I agree with most of the posts for this hostel. The bathrooms really need to be remodeled or atleast cleaned, they looked like they haven't been cleaned in ages!! which is pretty gross, also most of the rooms are moldy and have this humitdy smell that is not very pleasant. although it has a good location. You can walk pretty... More

The staff was very friendly and gave great tips on visiting the city. The rooms were fine and the breakfast was fine. The bathrooms were horrific. Unexceptable. I found the price totally too hih for such poor accomidations. The kitchen was so ill equiped and dirty it was impossible to take advantage of it.
