Avenue Hostel

The hostel is not far from downtown, three metro stops from Deak Ferenc ter (square), the central downtown transit hub. And the metro station is 100 meters from hostel. I was received by an unkind and unfriendly female receptionist who did not want to give me a bed far away from the AC. I checked in at 15:30, when the other beds were available, but she was just lazy to change my bed. In the evening as the AC was blowing so hard and I did not want to wake up sick in the morning, I had to ask another receptionist to find me another room where the AC was blowing normally. He had a hard time to find another bed. When the next day during check out I talked to the manager and stated that I was not happy with the unkind receptionist, she got even more angry. However, the front desk manager noted my complain about the AC and said they would be working on it. Upon picking my luggage I noted that my towel was stolen from the towel rack on the fourth floor terrace. Actually, you have to pay to rent a towel, and some guests do not want to do it, they prefer stealing other guest’s towels. I checked out with the front desk, and they investigated the missing towel with cleaners, but did not find my towel, which was very different than hostel’s ones. I was happy that my luggage that was left at the reception desk upon check out was ok.

The hostel is located in the oktogon square near the oktogon metro station in city centre. The only thing I did not liked is the hidden city tax they charged me about 1.42 Euro. Overall, the hostel was good and breakfast was also good but can be improved. Environment is clean.

It was super experience 😘

Good hostel for £7 per night, including a continental breakfast. Although encountered issues with being allocated a different room to my friends, despite this being confirmed prior, furthermore my bed did not have a pillow upon arrival which created issues. Perhaps I was just unlucky. overall, a good budget option

The elevator was quite scared to use. The hostel was quite hard to notice from outside. What I like here is its location and my breakfast included.

Great location situated close to metro stations and trams. However, the staff upon arrival completely ignored me for the first 10 minutes. I understand that it was some form of shift change, but some acknowledgment would have been expected. The facilities were good. I was particularly impressed by privacy curtains and the free breakfast.
