Frommer's Review
Opened in 1997 in a large house in a drab neighborhood in outer Pest (on the train tracks, just minutes from the suburban Zugló Railway Station), this year-round hostel proudly boasts a nonstop party atmosphere. Don't come here for a quiet place to stay. For many guests, the time spent at this hostel is a principal part of their time spent in Budapest. The hostel is not run by a hostel chain, and the informative staff is fiercely proud of its independence -- they treat you as guests in their house. The rooms (mixed-sex) are standard dorm rooms. The well-stocked bar is open -- and in use -- 24 hours a day. The common room has a pool table (free use) and walls filled with murals and other creations by the guests. There is live music (rock, blues, jazz), principally performed by hostel guests. The hostel has a fully equipped kitchen (there is a grocery store nearby), and the facilities are surprisingly clean given the somewhat hedonistic atmosphere. Internet access is available at 20 Ft (10¢) per minute. There is a TV and there are safe lockers.
Facilities:
Bar; communal kitchen; laundry service
