Hard to sleep

Not great when you want to sleep because people are so loud when they come back late at night, slamming doors, banging and talking loudly at 3am. Didn't sleep much.

Will not stay here again even it is not expensive

I don't like to leave negative review, but this is the worst hostel among the hostels I stayed in Europe, second worst in the world. A roommate who shared the same room told me it was his worst hostel he ever stayed. The manager Joseph was not nice. He talked like a grumpy commander instead of as a host. Check-in was very slow. Dirty room. I have never seen any hotel or hostel took such a long time to check in each guest. It was a chaos, over 20 people waiting in the line to check in. When booking, I left a message to ask for a lower bed because my right leg has a problem, they still assigned me to an upper bed. But that bed was occupied by another guest already, actually the bed below was empty. I had to go back to the reception to ask them to assign me to the empty bed. The floor was dirty. The sink by the shower drained very slowly. I will not stay here again even it is not expensive.

Great for large groups sharing at a low price.

Me and a group of friends shared a 6 bed dorm for 3 nights. The room was not very big but it had everything that we needed. The beds were comfortable. The USB ports on the beds didn’t seem to work but we just used the power outlets instead so that wasn’t a huge issue. There were lockers in the room which can be used if you bring your own padlock. The bathroom was clean. We did have an issue with a broken toilet seat but we told the front desk and they fixed it immediately without issue. The location is great and it’s easy enough to navigate the city from this location. Overall I think it was great for the price we paid.

Good value, paid $21 plus 0.76 cent at the spot. Warning must have a valid debit and credit card. For anyone seeking to run a proper hostel, check out this chain. They know what they are doing! I checked out late, no one gave me a hazzle. Will for sure stay again despite no queen bed or room service

Overall, my stay was good. My room and the common areas were rather chilly, probably owing to the loss of natural gas from Russia, but the situation did not cause any concern for me. My room and the common areas were clean, but the elevators could use some cleaning. The breakfast buffet provides a good selection. The property is within walking distance of the Hamburg Hbf and a U-Bahn station, making driving unnecessary.
