Very average
Hostel is poorly signed and the access system is not the friendliest. Staff on arrival didn’t seem to care that I had booked a twin room and instead gave me a bunk in a dorm room and explained the dorm would be empty. They were very helpful explaining where to go locally and places to eat! Sadly the night staff were not as helpful she invited her friends over who all sat just outside my room drinking wine, laughing and talking until 04:00hrs! This was despite their being a night staff statlffroom away from the dorm rooms? My room was clean and there was loads of room. Bedding was standard European so if you like a pillow bring your own. There were large lockers that you are provided a key for that accompany your bed. My room had no curtain so the building opposite with its lights on all night makes it a very bright room for those of us who like sleeping in the dark. No privacy curtains around the bunk ether.., Toilets are located outside the kitchen which is a little awkward and with a window in the door (frosted) can be a tad embarrassing for those taking a number 2! Shower was clean but very basic. I had plenty of hot water... Breakfast was included but again very basic choice of cereals or bread and spread! The free tea and coffee is a nice touch but for brits this is fruit tea not what you get at home so bring your own PG tips Best thing about this hostel for me was it’s location! Walking distance to everything for me but I do like a good walk!!

Convenient location
Kind of not easy to find initially since I arrived at night. Found the street easily, right next to metro station. Walked back and forth on the street to look for entrance. Finally found a small sign on the wall next to an iron gate. Other than that part, everything was ok.

Its a Hostel not a Hotel.
Not suitable for families or couples. very old building. doesnt have even a sign board to suggest its a hostel. Although it is located right next to Metro station and city centre yet house keeping is not up to d mark. Toilets and rooms were stinking. One person manages the hostel / kitchen / receiption and cleaning staff comes on contract once a day for 2-3 hours. Room keys is also a big problem.

空港からのシャトルバス100Eのバス停Deac Ferenc ter地下鉄駅からも徒歩15分くらいとロケーションはいいです。最寄り駅はArany Janos utcaホステルが。入っているビルに看板がないので場所がわかりにくいです。チェックイン時は、ビルのインターホンNO.11を押し、2階受付にドアを開けてもらいます。階段は夜間自動で灯りがつかないので、自分でスイッチを入れます。エレベーターは中二階からあります。受付含めスタッフは愛想がないですが、それほど問題ありません。朝食はフルブレックファストで、パン・チーズ・数種類のシリアル・ジャムです。十分満足感のある朝食です。飲み物もココア・コーヒー・数種類の紅茶で、朝食時以外でもセルフサービスで飲めます。洗濯はスタッフに預け洗濯してもらい、当日夕方に受取ります。自分での洗濯は不可です。建物が古いので、設備は良いとは言えませんが、きちんと清掃されています。シャワーもきれいとまでは言えませんが、許容範囲だと思います。

In pieno Centro, sito in una posizione strategica
Rapporto qualità prezzo ottimale. Variegata ed abbondante la prima colazione. Eccellente il segnale Wi-Fi, cordialità alla reception ed una camera pulita ed estremamente riscaldata. Possibilità di lasciare gratuitamente i bagagli in deposito per qualche ora, dopo aver eseguito il check out. Ascensore sorprendentemente fulmineo e spazioso. L’unico neo riscontrato, è stato quello della doccia, ove non vi era alcuna possibilità di poter chiudere a chiave la porta a chiave, rimanendo con l’ansia e il dubbio, di possibili eventuali entrate di altri ospiti della struttura

Sentralt og hyggelig
Vi kom til hostellet og fikk veldig god service i resepsjonen. Vi fikk kart og informasjone om severdigheter i byen. Det var hyggelig atmosfære på stedet og rommet vi fikk var mye bedre enn det vi hadde forventet. Vi hørte lite til andre gjester, men fant ut i frokosten at de fleste var på omtrent samme alder, unge backpackere. Hostellet ligger sentralt og vi tok metro til togstasjonen siste dagen som bare tok 15 minutter til sammen.

Centralt och bra!
Rummet var rent och helt ok för priset. Dock låg själva hotellet och lägenheten som vi bodde i 5 minuters promenad ifrån varandra så frukost som ingick i priset var inget alternativ för oss tyvärr men hade ett eget kök så det löste sig. Annars låg hotellet mitt i smeten vilket vi tyckte var suveränt. Väldigt tyst för att ligga så centralt. Servicen var bra, dock tyckte jag som själv jobbar på hotell att personalen satt i sina privata kläder sänker servicekvalitet lite. Men over all så var allt bra och om vi ska åka till Budapest igen blir det detta hostel igen :)

Auberge de jeunesse très agréable
Nous avons été agréablement surpris par cet auberge de jeunesse. Un bel accueil, propriétaire très aux soins et disponible pour toutes questions, une chambre avec cuisine privée, un Wi-Fi qui fonctionne bien et une localisation parfaite pour visiter la ville rattrape le fait que la salle de bain est partagée, qu'il n'y a pas de ménage tous les jours, que le déjeuner est très sommaire, qu'il est difficile de trouver l'hôtel de l'extérieur et l'entrée fou un peu la trouille. Une fois ces derniers éléments passés, cette auberge de jeunesse est un excellent rapport qualité-prix.

Dommage que la chambre ne soit pas faite; le store de la fenêtre était cassé, l'avons signalé une première fois, mais il n'y a eu aucune réaction, et une 2ème fois auprès d'un jeune homme responsable qui est intervenu et a réglé le problème; nous avons ainsi pu dormir le matin. Hostel très bien situé dans Budapest

Absteige im Zentrum von Budapest
Der Minibus vom Flughafen hatte mich an der angegebenen Adresse abgesetzt und fuhr dann ab. Sehr zu meiner Überraschung konnte ich keinen Eingang mit Hotelbezeichnung sehen. Ich habe dann Anwohner und Bedienungen der in der Strasse sich befindenden Geschäfte nach dem Hotel/Hostel befragt. Niemand konnte mir sagen, wo denn das Hostel sich befindet. Ich mußte dann mit Gepäck meine Termine wahrnehmen und bin dann abends mit einem Ungarn zurückgekommen, nachdem dieser mit der Rezeption telefoniert hatte. Die Adresse hatte gestimmt. Ein winzig kleines Schild in ca. 2,50 m Höhe über dem Eingang neben anderen Werbeplakaten zeigte an, dass hier wohl das Bumerang Hostel war. Mit einem speziellen Code, den man am Eingang eingeben mußte, kam man dann in das Gebäude. Das Gebäude ist ein abgewirtschaftetes Haus in der Innenstadt von Budapest. Dunkel und wenig einladend das Treppenhaus. In der 3. Etage die Rezeption. Der Aufzug eher abenteuerlich. Die Zimmer liegen in verschiedenen Etagen. Bad und Toilette über den Flur. Die Ausstattung von Bad und Toilette läßt zu wünschen übrig. Beim Einchecken wird gleich nach Cash gefragt für den Aufenthalt. Die vorab Buchung mit Kreditkarte wird nicht akzeptiert. Man muß in Forint bezahlen zu einem Wucherkurs. Die Zimmerausstattung ist mehr als spartanisch dafür hat man Un terhaltung aus den Zimmern nebenan bis nach 24 Uhr obwohl alle Gäste gebeten sind, ab 22:00 Uhr sich an die Nachtruhe zu halten. Frühstück gibt es erst ab 8:00 Uhr.
