    It's a great place to stay for Sziget, but you get what you pay for! The staff are always very friendly and helpful and there's a good energy from the other guests.

    The bathroom + toilet were very far from our room, and was shared with 50 people. The showers only had curtains and no possibility of hanging your clothes inside of the shower room, and no possibility of closing the door.

    The location was good, the restaurants downstairs were nice.

    agreeable stay.
    • Leisure trip

    The curtain doesn't really block out the light and there was a weird smell in the room. I also found it really warm in the room. There is no soap available and you don't get a towel, so bring this yourself or buy it.

    So I found this place relatively last minute because it was close to the Sziget festival and I didn't want to camp. Normally it's a students dorm so there are 2 1pers beds per room (in mine at least), two little desks and a fridge. The showers and toilets are shared in the hallway, which is fine (showers were good!!). Lidl is around the corner. 20 min walk to Obudai island. And with 30 min with tram 1 you can be at Keleti train station.

    The people working there are incredibly unfriendly. I don't know if it is always the case or if it is just because of the festival. Also, there is a lot of noise during the night and early in the morning due to bad noise isolation. The bedroom was very hot, even if we slept with the window open all night long. There is also only 4 showers to share with fifty people, which is too little in my opinion. We took showers at night when we got back from the festival, and we were alone, though. They were cleaner than expected.

    The location is very nice if you go to Sziget. The rooms were relatively clean and the bed hard, but I prefer that than too soft. There were locks on our door to assure safety of our things.

    There's only one shower for women - cannot be locked. Then there are four showers for men. The same applies to toilets - there's one toilet for women (this can be locked surprisingly) and then for men there are more toilets. Basically, the toilets and showers are shared because girls don't have enough space, we didn't even have one sink nor a mirror so basically if you want to at least brush your teeth you have to go to the men's room. The rooms are terribly hot, beds are dirty and uncomfortable but we were there for the Sziget festival so as long as you come back drunk you can survive it here. People are talking and singing until 5 am and the location isn't really that good for Sziget either - it's probably a 35-40 minute walk. Overall, the price for this experience was too high, we have dorms in Slovakia that look the same and they cost 40€ per month not per 2 nights.

    The bathrooms are new so they were not that bad.

    The other guests were extremly noisy even after 10PM on the corridor and we were woken up multiple times by them. Also there is no lift/elevator so if you have a lot of bags ask for a room downstairs.

    The receptionist was very nice. The place itself is a student dormitory so it was as expected for the price. Communal bathrooms and toilets. Women had a separate shower and toilet. There was also a communal kitchen with a microvawe and oven. Everything was clean (but you need to bring your own towel and toiletries). There was a small fridge in the room. The placement of the dormitory is nice, there is a tram and bus to the city centre near and there are shops close by (aldi, lidl, kfc ..)

    Not clean, uncomfortable and moldy mattresses, couldn't find my room - was in an unmarked cupboard with no light, shower facilities lacking, laundry facilities confusing to work - need tokens but you have to buy them in cash only at reception, food at "restaurant" was marginal

    As we were attending Sziget Festival, awesome location in regards to getting to Obudai Island. 15 minute walk tops. Roughly 20 minute Bolt to the central area. 24 hrs reception

    No towels only cheap linen, beds are thin mattresses on a plank of wood, staff don’t speak english which is fine but would have been helpful, walls are paper thin so you hear each phone vibration and footstep outside for the whole corridor, doors have graffiti on them and showers feel like they’re rotting away, this was not worth the sleepless nights

    It felt relatively clean, cleaners were washing the floors quite often and no complaints about the room

    Could do with some instructions on how the cooker works. The kettles could do with renewing.

    Very good location for the event I was attending. The staff are always friendly & helpful. The accommodation is basic but comfortable and priced accordingly. The Internet connection I needed for work was very reliable. Food at the onsite cafe was good. This was my 2nd time staying at ghe property.

    There are literally no locks on the toilet doors and you have to hold the door while doing your business. Also the showers and toilets were mostly dirty. The rooms were hot and also not so clean. We couldn’t even use the kitchen area because the couch seems to barely survive World War II and very filthy.

    Only thing we liked about the accommodation was that it was close to the Sziget Festival so we could access the festival grounds by walking or with a scooter.

    Whether your stay will be comfortable or not is purely based on other people’s behavior. If they are loud, you will be kept awake or awaken in the middle of the night. The property is dirty and not updated. You cannot close the door to the bathrooms, which are never clean. You can’t hang up your clothes in the bathroom because everything is broken.

    It was the cheapest one available, at a pretty fair price compared to what you get. It is fine for a very quick stay in the city and close to shops and transportation.
