First time solo travelling and staying at a hostel and im so happy I chose the Circus. Super convenient location (right across from trams and subway) so getting there from the airport was the easiest thing ever! Friendly staff and nice clean rooms, beds were so big and comfortable and the shared toilets/showers were always looking and smelling clean. Chilled atmosphere and they host daily nightly activities to help you mingle with our travellers. Overall I loved this place and would 100% stay again next time I visit 😊💕

This was one of the best hostels I've ever stayed in, at this price, it's unbeatable. They have free lockers, which are hardly available in any European countries at the moment. And they have multiple toilets and they are really clean. And if I talk about the location it is unbelievable, just outside of the hostel. It’s 10/10

Every day, there are events you can attend to meet more people. They also have a great public area where everyone can use a laptop, which is quite good. However, I stayed for five days, and on the first day, my locker broke. They promised they would fix it the next day, but they didn't. So, I had to put my suitcase in the basement for the other four days. (The basement has a secure, automatic luggage storage system with individual cabinets, which is good.) Overall, it was a good experience to stay there!

Very good location. It's a 2min walk from the station. The staff were very helpful and friendly. This is a well kept Hostel. There were cleaners there on a daily basis. The 8 bed dorm I slept in was clean and comfortable. The only downside in the room is the plug socket by your bed, it's behind a small shelf with a door and you can't shut it when you charge your phone. The breakfast is a buffet for roughly €10 but is not worth paying, you get some bread, cheese, ham, apple slices, yoghurt and muesli. There are better offerings in some of the local bakeries. There is a bar downstairs that serves the beer that is brewed on-site, this was a nice touch. Overall it was a very pleasant place to stay.

I really enjoyed staying in The Circus Hostel. The location was great. I could easily access to main tourist places and also to central train station. I’d like to stay here next time:)

As soon as w you walk in, you know this accommodation has a vibe! The luggage super cool, easy to operate, and free! They even have showers if somebody strolls up stinky before they can check-in. The room was good and the shared bathroom was better than I expected to be honest. The cafe attached had a great meal called ‘The Local’. They even had a guide where to watch matches since I was in town for the 2025 European cup! The only downside was my window faced the courtyard where they sort everyone’s beer bottles in the morning from the night before.
