The hotel was very clean, the room was spacious, and the location was excellent, within walking distance to tourist attractions. Although there were no toothbrushes or slippers, we had a comfortable stay with amenities like bottled water, instant coffee, tea bags, body lotion, and an iron. The reception staff were also very friendly and helpful, and they even allowed us to check in early when we arrived just before 1 PM. The only downside was that the air conditioning in the room was quite strong, and it remained cold even after turning it off. However, it wasn't an issue once we pulled up the covers, and I'd rather have it cold than hot.

The breakfast was plentiful, and the location was super convenient – easy to walk to the old town and the train station. The front desk staff were also quite friendly. My only minor complaint is that on the second day, nobody came to change the towels, empty the trash, or replenish the tissues.

This is my first time in Bratislava so I was a bit worried when I realized I would be arriving hours later than originally planned, and that the reception would be closed (closes at 10pm). The very nice person who messaged me about my arrival at Hostel Folks/Folks Hostel was kind enough to check me in, leave the key on the desk for me, and send me instructions for how to get in and which room & bed were for me. I found it all easily, and was impressed by the positive energy and the cleanliness. Also, my room (6-bed room) was HUGE! All of my luggage fit into the locker, and the bed was comfy. The showers and toilets were clean, the kitchen nice and neat, and the room with all the tables is ample in size. I would 100% return to this hostel if I ever have the opportunity to return. Oh, also, there is a stack of maps on the reception counter, and a vending machine in the common room.

The location is great; you can get here directly from the airport by tram. There is a DM right in front, a Tesco nearby, and the tram stop is close by. They provide a towel (it's a large one). The locker is large enough to comfortably store a carry-on suitcase and a backpack. The 90cm bed seems to be a good fit for someone with an average build of 165cm. It was nice being able to store my luggage before and after check-in.

The receptionist was amazing and very helpful. The room was large and clean. Parking was cheap and the garage was secure. However, the bathroom was dated and it was very difficult to shower without spraying water everywhere. The walls are also very thin. Overall, it was a nice stay.

This hostel has a great location, close to the city center. It's got a more chill vibe and not many events, but the bar, kitchen, and common areas are great for meeting people. Mariana is an excellent bartender! When I first arrived, I had to wait an hour to check in because they hadn't cleaned the room yet, so I'm knocking off a point for that. Otherwise, the person working the free waffle day (I forgot to ask their name) also provided great service. If the staff weren't so good, I would have docked another point because having to put on our own bed sheets was ridiculous. You absolutely have to try the absinthe at the bar. It was also great to have tea and coffee available. I'd definitely stay here again for the chill vibe.

As the hotel was fully occupied, we often had to wait quite a while for the elevators. We were surprised to find that the use of the stairs was not allowed, as clearly indicated by the signs.

I stayed here for two nights in a dormitory room shared by 6 people. Inside the room there are locker facilities and an elevator. To enter the accommodation and the room, you must use an entry code. It’s very safe and privacy is well maintained. There is no reception area, everything is done online. There are bathroom and toilet facilities, as well as a shared kitchen area and laundry facilities. The lobby area can be used from 6 AM to 12 AM. Free wifi is available. The bedroom is very comfortable and equipped with privacy curtains. The atmosphere here is very quiet and comfortable, and the location is also very strategic and easily accessible by public transportation. Overall, good services.
