    Staff were not welcomed and willing to explain much about the Hostel and to provide tourist information about the city.

    The location is really good. And the volunteers who were working there were good.

    The building is a bit old. The toilets and shower is OK. The dormitory room is spacious. Sufficient storage space but easy to make noise when use the lockers. Not very comfortable one but good for budget travellers.

    Location. Very convenient.

    Very enjoyable place to stay for a few nights and to have fun in Tallinn historical centre,

    • Bunk Bed in Female Dormitory Room

    I wish there were a bit more storage space for stuff near the beds (both to put things down and hang) and a bit more space to sit down in the room (like an extra chair or bench near the beds).

    I absolutely loved the location. The hostel is in a historical building, so just staying there was a positive experience already. I enjoyed the bar offers and that there was an event night, although I didn't participate, but it's cool that the place offers some fun things to do as well. The room was nice and had very comfy beds with an electric socket near each bunk (I think), bathroom facilities are in good condition.

    The bed was pretty uncomfortable and felt like tilted to one side. The rest, everything was okay.

    The location is perfect and if you are an extrovert, this is the perfect hostel to stay in. Lots of activities happening.

    There's a construction site in the inner yard, so windows facing that are sealed and there's often very loud noise starting earlier than 8am. After the booking, I was warned that there might have been noise due to potential parties, but nothing about early morning hammering had ever been mentioned...

    Reasonable environments and a very sociable atmosphere.

    It was quite difficult to find cutlery in the kitchen. The storage under the bed was quite noisy and there was a lot of construction happening outside.

    Very social atmosphere, plenty of toilets and showers, great location in the middle of Old Town.

    The building is currently under construction so there is some noise. The beds are also very flimsy and there are no curtains (on the beds or windows).

    Great people and activities organised by the hostel

    The room got very humid and hot during the night; ventilation was not possible due to the noise and light in the hallway.

    Staff was very fun, lots of ways to meet new people, common rooms were great, good options ans decent prices at the bar

    The lockers under the bed become locked because it doesn't adjust precisely with the adjacent one, toilet bowl need a bidet, it is more hygienic and economic to clean.

    I liked the location and meet many people, the price was good.

    The rooms gets a bit warm since it is a old building, but for the price its fine.

    Great hostel to meet people, clean but a bit warm since it was a heat wave during my visit. But the hostel itself was clean, really fun and great way of meeting people. The hostel is also located super central

    More hooks in the bathrooms would have been helpful, and more frequent spot cleaning. Otherwise, excellent!

    Super nice staff, very friendly and nice relaxed vibe of other guests, comfortable beds, and good air ventilation! Also very nice to have bar on site, but a bit separate from sleeping area.

    really hot in the rooms, almost impossible to sleep in. the toilets were also not the cleanest but it comes with territory, i guess.

    perfect location, a beautiful historical building with lots of areas to relax or connect with other travellers. the room was spacious and comfortable, i felt right at home.

    - Locker below beds is quite noisy and some were not working. - Bathroom was not clean enough, with water (hopefully) in the floor. - Quite hard to find your room in the maze, but it's ok

    - Location is good - Cheap beers and events happen in the hostel - Staff is good
