Located in Timişoara, a 20-minute walk from the centre, the family-run Mosaico Alfetta Hostel offers free WiFi, a terrace and 9AM-8PM front desk. Free parking spaces are available on site and the closest bus stop is 50 m away. The Art Museum of Timişoara lies within a 10-minute walk.

T only hostel that gives you a physical city map - not retro, rather, restoring hospitality! While some hosteliers are trying to get away with 0 living/common rooms, this "Cadillac" has that + a romantic terrace 2 enjoy or hang your clothes out 2 dry! I "wuv" clothes hung outside 2 dry. . . . T morning "coffee 'n choc. croissant" are so appreciated, but I'd just like 2 add that "stinky" Swiss/French/Italiano cheeses would take this hostel 2 t next highest sphere. . .Its 1min. from pulic transit, & its proximity 2 t centre/Old Town, Opera House (Madame Butterfly was impressive), & Phllharmonic Hall (guest Italian conductor didn't use a musical score bec. he knows t pieces so well! I saw him in Cluj-Napoca lead Verdy's "Requiem" with stealth & again, no score! It must be Dr Oetker's Pasta - you know, "Dr O" did invented baking powder!) Bucharest, & Cluj have very good puppet theatres, but I was so busy enjoying t music competition @ t State sponsored Perf. Arts H.S. I didn't have time 2 check that out. Get this, t P A.H.S. had many "Performance-Ready" teens playing t HARP - wow! T over-all winner of t competition was a cellist who played with clarity & passion! Other teen violinists were in t process of auditioning 2 attend summer schools in Weiner "Schnitzel" & Berlin - ain't too shabby I'd say. . . .

Situated in Timişoara, Passpartout Hostel has a garden, shared lounge, terrace, and free WiFi throughout the property. Popular points of interest nearby include The Carmen Sylva Park, Roses Park and The Capitoline Wolf of Timisoara. The rooms have a balcony with a city view.

Although we only stayed for one night, we enjoyed Passpartout. The room and the bathroom were very clean, and the beds were comfy. There was also a kitchen if needed, and the garden seems a great place to chill. Our host Sorina was also very nice and communicative. Would definitely recommend it!

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 apartment is located in a quiet part of the city. It is ideal for those who come by car, free and safe parking. Taxi is too cheap (1 ride = 2 bus tickets) - Bolt app. The hosts were wonderful and kind. The apartment was very clean. If you go in winter, it is very warm in the accommodation.

    Lovely staff, clean room, hot water, comfy bed (if you like soft mattresses), fast wifi... The courtyard is as pretty as it looks and the hostel is perfectly placed, metres from the Museum of the Revolution, the other museums and the cafes, restaurants and bars in the beautiful historic centre. (It's also only a few minutes' walk from the Bastion stop for the cheap direct bus to the airport.)

    Location is great, keypad access felt safe and lockers are provided with a key so no need for padlocks. Communicates via WhatsApp due to no reception but all easy and friendly. Free coffee was nice and rules made the property seem cleaner / no shoes inside is a good idea (though providing slippers might be nice as not everyone has indoor shoes when travelling hostels). Space was small but seemed well taken care of - any sign of roaches outside was them dead so I think the whole building is working towards fighting them!

    The premises were really good considering a fact that this is only a pension house. A great location in a safe area. We really appreciate the outstanding support of the receptionist Abdul who was client-oriented and helped us out many times with a smile on his face.

    The hostel was really near to the city center. It had a kitchen with all the necessary things. In the backyard was a place to chill. All the people I met there were really nice and helped you out if you had any questions. Never have been to such a welcoming place before. Had a great time here meeting new people from all over the world. If you come to Timisoara you should definitely come to this wonderful hostel!

    Great location right in the middle of the old town, and still quiet. The hostel is clean, rooms are big enough, AC works well and beds have curtains for privacy.
