Nice but room for improvement
Stayed for two nights over a weekend and found it to be very quiet with not much atmosphere. The room was spacious. Locker however was over the other side of the room. Small kitchen available which could have been cleaner. Fridges available but both had a funny smell. Nice big common room available. Probably wouldn't stay again as it was a little overpriced for what it was.

Friendly service, good bed for the night
The hostel is quite basic but it's also centrally located, comfortable, spacious and the recceptionist/proprietor offered a very warm welcome. There's free tea and coffee, fridges in your room, and it's only a short walk to the main town square. I'd recommend this for a budget stay in Bratoslava.

Amazing stay!
The hostel was so spacious! Unlike other hostels that try to fit as many beds into the room as possible, this hostel really went the extra mile to have open areas in the hostel, they even added a couch in the room!

Home from home experience
Great host, helpful, freindly and full of local knowledge, Location excellent, short walk from all the main attractions and transportation. Very Clean and modern with all amenities needed (ear plugs Inc and can be useful on a weekend night). Felt more like a shared home rather than a hostel. Thank you.

A Hostel for some, a Hotel for others
Excellent location right next the old town with also easy access to public transports (tramways). Obchodna Ulica is a well known shops and trade street in the heart of Bratislava. The place is very comfy and reasonably priced, nothing of a luxury but you have a proper sleep plus a good hospitality. Wonderful staff at the reception. Coffees and teas available for all, all day at the lounge...have stayed there years back, enjoyed it then and enjoyed it lately. Will always go back for sure and I am in my 60s plus.

Hostel Folks was great! Very clean and modern hostel, it wasn’t very busy during my stay so it was nice and quiet the whole time. Large common room to hang out in. Showers had great hot water and water pressure. Towel and lockers included in stay! Definitely recommend this place. Thank u Rado for all the local recommendations!

One of my favorite hostels I've stayed in. Very laid back atmosphere, fantastic wifi and common space, very clean and well kept, and really nice staff. Much quieter than some of the other hostels in Bratislava, and in an unbeatable location. Would stay here again, and highly recommend!

Great hostel, with a friendly host
The room was clean and pretty comfortable, although a slightly thicker duvet would have been appreciated, it was warm though and the showers were especially good for both water pressure and temperature. Towels and ear plugs are provided in case anyone needs to know! Great local knowledge and very informative on check in. Rado also recommend that we do the free city tour (11:30am and 2pm every day) and this was brilliant. One thing to be aware of is that if you are out late you will have to buzz security to let you into the hostel and the front gate is locked at some point between 10pm and 1am. I'd definitely recommend staying here, fantastic location, great value for money and overall a really pleasant stay.

One of the best hostels I have ever stayed at during my travels in dozens of countries! Go and see Rado - easily the best guy in all of Slovakia! He will take excellent care of you and all your needs! I was there as a digital nomad, so I needed perfect high speed wifi and a quiet space to conduct hours of video conference calls. Rado arranged a space for me so that I could work without interruptions. He also gave great city advice and I am so grateful for it! Hostel was super clean. Honestly these are the absolute most huge rooms I have ever seen in any hostel (or even hotel) anywhere! You will definitely not feel crowded here! Fabulous stay, highly recommended!
