Carmen and Fernando are so welcoming, warm, organised and professional. They have a lot of experience in helping people to enjoy the city of Bucharest and are experts in sharing their knowledge. They understand the needs of the traveller and provide an excellent place to stay. The beds are comfortable, the bathroom is very clean, there are plenty of showers. Security is great as you have your own locker. WiFi was also great and there is a beautiful common area and small kitchen. I highly recommend you stay here, the location is perfect.

Service minded and friendly staff, which cannot be taken for granted in Bucharest. A 24/7 open reception - I arrived 2 a.m, and had no problems with check in. The room is basic but covers all you need.

This hostel is just incredible! We've never experienced such a social environment, what a nice idea to have events mixing guests, the staff and local people. Super warm welcome by the staff (special thanks to the Romanian guy with the red jacket playing ukulele - don't know his name), looks like a big family! Diverse fun events organized every night to get people mixing but no noisy party. Communal areas are really nice, whether you want to chill out, play board games (they have an incredible number of every kind of games), work remotely... Moreover, the whole hostel is really clean as it is continuously cleaned.

Looking for a hostel?

Budget travellers know that there is no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a bit more.

    The staff made me feel so welcome, and they clean the rooms every day, even in the off season. The amenities are all functional, and the beds are comfortable. This is a great location, and I felt really safe at this hostel as a solo female traveller.

    Massive shout-out to the cleaner, Paula who is so lovely and will go out her way to help you with anything despite language barriers! The hostel is very central and is decent if you need a cheap stay. There are sockets by the beds.

    Very kind staff, big bathroom, upgrade in the 8-beds dormitory and even, as I was there for the second time, the best bed ! Very quiet, as it is not a youth hostel.
