    The hostel has a great location and it was cheap. Inside the kitchen there aren't cooker and oven, but there is a microwave. We arrived later, 30m more than 23h and there wasn't anyone in the reception and no one answered the messages and calls. We had to sleep in other hostel. So don't arrive more than 23h, because no one there will care about you.

    Hostel is nice and clean. Check in and out was easy enough for me, although I did see the lady at reception being quite rude to another guest checking in. The kitchen consists of only a microwave and kettle, and there is a lack of personal touch. Also, the power outlets aren't near the beds. Not the worst location, and is in walking distance to a high street and a few bars and cafes. Edit - They cancelled my booking after I checked out so as to not let me leave a review on hostelworld too, this is a strange decision and has changed my review to 1* now

    I tend to think of this hostel as one of the worst hostels we stayed in during our month-long trip round Europe. The staff seemed unfriendly, perhaps even hostile, to us from the offset, splitting one member of our group off from the rest of us for no apparent reason. Then, later, we returned from a day out to find a complete stranger lying on his bed, apparently having been assigned the same bed. The 'room', as others have pointed out, is essentially an open-plan hallway with 24 beds in it. There is very little privacy as you have to walk through other rooms to get anywhere in the facility. The bathroom facilities are average at best and dangerous at worst, with one of our group falling over in the shower due to a poorly designed floor. The kitchen may as well not exist given how poorly equipped it is. Perhaps the only redeeming features are the ample supply of electrical outlets and plentiful lockers provided (bring your own lock, though). Doable if you're a group of young travellers with a 'make-do' attitude but I would not rush back to Hostel Seven.

    PATHETIC EXPERIENCE. First, The staff is extremely rude to the tourists as if we are staying for free and they are doing some kind of a favor to us. Secondly the room had zero ventilation and very congested for a 4 person sleep in Thirdly, cleanliness is average. Overall I would say, dont stay here unless you have some emergency. You dont want to ruin your trip because the person at reception and the hostel SUCKS big time

    Worst hostel I’ve stayed in. The staff are incredibly rude, the rooms smell awful, the toilet has no soap, there’s only one toilet for more than 25 people... could go on forever. Staying here honestly ruined our trip. Worst of all - when we checked out the hostel cancelled our booking so we couldn’t leave a review on Hostelworld. Whilst the location is good, I highly recommend you stay elsewhere.

    Hostel has two and really only two selling points; it's cheap and it is in a good location. Other than that though it is very basic and not a comfortable place to stay. The rooms were super cramped and had no external window meaning it was very stuffy/hot at night, honestly it could become very unpleasant. The showers and toilets were basic but OK, the kitchen had no cooking facilities not even a toaster. The WiFi was slow and there was no area to stay in after checkout

    Stay away from it! We stayed there for two nights and booked a 10 bed dorm, we ended up in a room with 8 beds but without doors or windows and just next to another dorm... in total we were like 26 people in a dorm. Our "room" was the first to enter so everybody arriving later would walk right through our dorm. It was really noisy and bathrooms were not really clean. We booked two nights but found one of our beds taken by another person in the second night, two other beds were without sheets and there was only one new set of sheets! We told them in the morning but the staff did not really care. All in one a bad experience! You can find better places for the same price!

    (Translated by Google) The nefarious service, people came to the hotel when they wanted to sleep. Without a doubt the worst hostel I've ever been in my life. To top it off they robbed me 50 euros of the deposit of the keys using my card without my permission. Denounced Do not go (Original) El servicio nefasto, se colaba gente en el hotel cuando quería dormir. Sin duda el peor hostel en el que he estado en mi vida. Para rematar me robaron 50 euros de la fianza de las llaves utilizando mi tarjeta sin mi permiso. Denunciados. No vayáis

    The hostel is very cold. Open windows in the toilet and bathroom, which you can not open, the wind is blowing in the wc. The room was very cold, I had to sleep in the clothes. Hard to take a shower, the water can be extremely hot or extremely cold. You get what you pay...

    Nice cheap hostel with a very good location close to the city centre.

  • 1/5 Srinidhi J. 6 years ago on Google
    The people in the last room have to walk through 2 other rooms with 9-10 people sleeping. Also only 2 washrooms for 30 people !! Not very clean too :-(

  • 1/5 Camilla D. 5 years ago on Google
    (Translated by Google) The experience at this hostel was to say the least BAD. The dormitories were very dirty, they do not correspond to the division presented on the site, and they are also located in two different buildings with respect to the hall. Staff rude, arrogant and he does not really know interact with customers. Withdraw money from your card even before your arrival, even though check-in has not yet taken place. Council to re-evaluate your choice if you want to stay in this facility. (Original) L'esperienza in questo ostello è stata a dir poco PESSIMA. Le camerate erano molto sporche, non corrispondono alla divisione presentata sul sito, ed inoltre si trovano in due edifici differenti rispetto alla hall. Personale maleducato, arrogante e non sa affatto interagire con i clienti. Prelevano i soldi dalla tua carta ancor prima del tuo arrivo, nonostante il check in non sia ancora avvenuto. Consiglio di rivalutare la vostra scelta nel caso voleste soggiornare in questa struttura.

    It was an average good experience, what you'll expect from the paid price... But it is in a great location close to the museums. 8/10 would sleep there again.

    (Translated by Google) We with my girlfriend find that the service was so friendly, humane and sweet that we can not imagine anything better. A gorgeous old building with huge ceilings and real big windows !!!! So romantic! We find that human relationships and the atmosphere are the main thing. (Original) Wir mit meiner Freundin finden, dass die Bedienung so freundlich, menschlich und lieb war, dass wir uns nichts besseres vorstellen können. Ein traumhaftes altes Gebäude mit riesigen Decken und echten großen Fenstern!!!! So romantisch! Wir finden, dass die menschliche Verhältnisse und Atmosphäre Hauptsache sind.

  • 5/5 Pascu V. 6 years ago on Google
    I dont understand the bad reviews of the hostal. My bes was ok, we got clean sheets, the guy at the office was really nice too. We used the showers and they has hot water also. The kitchen was not super fancy but had a microwave, plates and made the work. The hostal is very well located and close to the downtown. Overall it was a good experience

  • 2/5 Justin B. 6 years ago on Google
    Really cheap and basic hostel. Beds were uncomfortable. However, it is close to the city center. It makes you want to get out and explore the city!

  • 1/5 Briana L. 6 years ago on Google
    This hostel was disgusting and easily the worst one I've ever stayed in. The bathrooms and showers were so gross we dreaded having to use them. At one point we saw a rat in the kitchen! It's going to take many scalding hot showers and possibly some therapy to feel clean again after staying here. Apart from how dingy and gross everything is, the kitchen was really lacking. There's only a microwave and a kettle so we were very limited in terms of what food we could prepare. Why even have the huge kitchen? I will say that the employees we met were very friendly and helpful and it's not their fault this hostel is so trashy, but that doesn't change the fact that it is. 0/10 would not wish on my worst enemy.

    (Translated by Google) noisiness. Non-clean. narrowness. Recommended for location and price. (Original) 시끄러움. 비청결. 좁음. 위치나 가격 면에서는 추천.

  • 3/5 Ben N. 6 years ago on Google
    The actual accommodation is located around a 5 minute walk from the reception. Like previous reviews have said, beds are split into groups of 7 with showers and toilets shared between them. The beds are comfortable, though you are required to put the bedsheets on yourself. The showers and toilet facilities are fine and the wifi works well. The staff at reception are friendly and helpful, though the cleaner is a little tetchy. You should be aware of the long list of 'offences' such as using as sleeping without bedsheets and wsshing clothes in sinks as they can try to fine you for them. Overall, it's a very basic hostel that does the job for a cheap price.

  • 2/5 Riccardo C. 4 years ago on Google
    (Translated by Google) This hostel has several problems: -reception not 24h. It's a problem because if you want a towel then you have to bring it back to reception but if you leave early in the morning there is no one at the reception. Moral of the story? YOU CAN'T TAKE IT. - the lady at the reception speaks badly both English and German: it is difficult to understand each other! -the bathroom is dirty, it's like going to the bathroom of a busy bar at the train station. I expect more from a hostel. - they give free sheets. Yes, but ONLY they give the mattress cover and the pillowcase. If you also want a sheet to cover you a little you have to pay. - the floors are wooden and creak a lot - the atmosphere is rather sad POSITIVES: -It is central -the beds are clean (but I think the minimum!) There are no more than one night, and if you can, look for something else. (Original) Questo ostello ha diversi problemi: -reception non 24h. È un problema perché se volete un asciugamano dovete poi riportarlo alla reception ma se partite di mattina presto alla reception non c'è nessuno. Morale della favola? NON potete prenderlo. -la signora alla reception parla male sia inglese sia tedesco: è difficile capirsi! -il bagno è sporco, è come andare nel bagno di un bar molto frequentato alla stazione ferroviaria. Da un ostello mi aspetto di più. -danno le lenzuola gratis. Sì, ma danno SOLO il coprimaterasso e la federa. Se volete anche un lenzuolo per coprirvi un po' dovete pagare. -i pavimenti sono di legno e scricchiolano tantissimo -l'atmosfera è piuttosto triste ASPETTI POSITIVI: -È centrale -i letti sono puliti (ma mi pare il minimo!) Non ci state più di una notte e, se potete, cercate altro.

    Usual hostel with good enough facilities

  • 1/5 danny d. 6 years ago on Google
    Probably the worse place I've ever stayed on, place looks old and dying and like no care went into the, had to walk sideways in the rooms to be able to, the windows however let a nice breeze in but that's the only good thing I could think of... No common room, slippery showers, right toilets, no kitchen (just a microwave) and was placed on the 3rd floor

  • 3/5 Danielle M. 5 years ago on Google
    Best thing about this hostel is the location. Really not a great place to stay, but it's super cheap. Rooms are all together in basically a long hallway so you hear everyone go in and out. Bathrooms are kind of gross and so are showers.

  • 3/5 Janet L. 6 years ago on Google
    The reception was located a block away and they provided clean linens. The dorm room itself considered of bunkbeds in what looked like an abandoned warehouse. It was clean enough and the location is very good. It is about a 10 minute walk to all the important sites.

  • 3/5 Adam H. 6 years ago on Google
    I've stayed in worse: the average review rating is unfair. Sure, the reception is not in the same building as the rooms, the WiFi bad and there is no air con. Ultimately though the shower and toilets were clean and worked; the beds were comfortable and the location is great. If you can't find a better place for the price it will be fine.

  • 3/5 Karen K. 6 years ago on Google
    The check in counter and the hostel is in different locations but still nearby. The place I stayed at was a bit old and dirty, but still doable for one night. It's cheap and close to the city center.

  • 1/5 Lawrence H. 6 years ago on Google
    Called ahead to cancel the first of a two night stay. We were happy to forego the deposit and were told it would be fine. They demanded payment for both nights when we arrived. We decided to stay somewhere else and were still charged a month later. Good location though.

  • 2/5 sam s. 5 years ago on Google
    Not clean at all. I stayed in one of the bigger dorms, so I understand that it can be difficult keeping rooms like that clean. What got me was the lockers they had were almost all broken like people had tried to pry them open.... not very safe. Also Most of the mattresses in my dorm were stained and the metal frames of the top beds were concaving in like they were gonna break. The reception people were nice, but the cleaning staff I met were not. When I first got here around check in--so I was alone-- I decided that I was going to rearrange some of my things. The cleaning lady came in and started yelling about the mess that there was. Legit I had my things out and away in like 5 minutes.

  • 4/5 Jennie M. 3 years ago on Google
    Not a party hostel but many clubs and bars nearby. All sights in walking distance too. Not expensive and very clean. I like it and will come back.

  • 1/5 Javier Mora U. 4 years ago on Google
    This is also known as the Best Location Hostel, which is not by no means... Next to a Brothel, and in an old building.

  • 1/5 Sara Roman R. 5 years ago on Google
    (Translated by Google) This hostel is a scam, it says that they are 10 rooms and it's actually an old disco with 22 beds, without doors and not a single window. The room is not excessively clean and you do not even get the bed made. I do not know what I recommend to anyone. (Original) Este hostel es un timo, pone que son habitaciones de 10 y en realidad es una antigua discoteca con 22 camas, sin puertas y ni una sola ventana. La habitación no está excesivamente limpia y no te dan ni la cama hecha. No sé lo recomiendo a nadie.

  • 1/5 trevor H. 4 years ago on Google
    Do not stay here. Rudest staff IV ever met anywhere in the world (yes the psychotic Asian lady) genuinely appeared like a scam as we paid, arrived and were denied check in. Police called almost immediately on arrival and seemed to be in on the scam. Avoid or you will end up out the money and looking elsewhere to stay.

    The place is located in the heart of the city ... With easy access to public transportation. You can walk from here to the major sightseeing locations of the city . Well maintained rooms and a lively ambience and good service. Very affordable for backpackers and groups .

  • 1/5 Félix F. 5 years ago on Google
    The worst hostel you could imagine, the rooms aren't clean, the "social area" smells bad and the staff is extremely rude to guests, they insulted us and even got into our room without permission! The only good thing is the location, besides that everything is terrible.

  • 3/5 Thomas F. 5 years ago on Google
    Not a brilliant place but it's alright if you just need a place to sleep

  • 1/5 Patri P. 5 years ago on Google
    (Translated by Google) The receptionist (I suppose that also owns the place) is the most edge, despairing, insipid and impatient of the world. The super neglected rooms, the showers in the female toilets did not work well (one of them did not drain the water). On the other hand, the location is fine and there is a kitchen with a fridge full of free food available to the client. (Original) La recepcionista (supongo que también dueña del local) es lo más borde, desesperante, insípido e impaciente del mundo. Las habitaciones super descuidadas, las duchas de los baños femeninos no funcionaban bien (una de ellas no tragaba el agua). Por otra parte la ubicación está bien y hay a disposición del cliente una cocina con una nevera llena de comida de uso gratuito.

  • 3/5 Francisco C. 5 years ago on Google
    Despite the fact that's it's called Best Location Hostel now, it's a good place to stay. Don't be fooled, you get exactly what you pay for but you can't ask for a better location. On a side note, I think they canceled my reservation when I left so I couldn't leave a review... Not so nice of a policy

  • 1/5 Ammar S. 5 years ago on Google
    First of all, they lie about the number of bed per room. We have booked 2 beds in a 10 bed - room, but we found that they put us in a 22 beds - room. So we asked them to change the room and they refused saying that it is written on their website that there rooms are connected which is half a wall in the middle of the room without any doors to sperate them. They even threatened to cancel our reservation untill I told them that I will call the police. Then they switched our beds to a 10 beds- room. Also the old lady at the reception kept saying that we should go to a more expensive hostel if you don't like it here.
