This hostel was great . Not only was the room spacious and comfortable, Personal were extremely friendly and helpful. the hostel was also great. Perfectly located as well. Prices are ok I recommend this Place
You should pay to have your basic stuff, like balnkets. The room is over crowded with 20+ beds in a small space. The workers attitude is really strange towarda residents and they dont speak english well. Not recommended at all!
The price is great and the location is amazing, straight across the river from the Guggenheim - but I'm not sure how you're supposed to book a bed. I emailed twice and made contact via the website as well but didn't hear anything back. I took a gamble and turned up anyway; the receptionist said he'd got my emails, but he hadn't done anything about it, and now the hostel was full. Lucky there's another hostel nearby.
When we arrived there was no welcome speech. There is no common area. There are lots of people in a room filled with triple bunk beds. The free breakfast is very basic. On the last night we arrived back to find people in our allocated beds. My stuff was then pulled out of a cupboard in a bin bag - suitcase and all! There are four plug sockets outside of the room to service about 20+ people. However the wifi was perfect and the location - literally facing the Guggenheim - can't be beaten.
This hostel is situated right across from the Guggenheim so the view isn't bad. However if you are not comfortable sleeping in large mixed rooms (20 beds to a room) I strongly recommend paying more for better quality. This place gets overbooked sometimes so you may end up on the couch in the lounge if you check in late at night. There is no key to get into the rooms so security is less of a guarantee (doors are open all day. there are lockers but bring your own lock). Also, staff leave the building at a certain time in the evening so if you arrive at night there will be no one to help you (you are given a code to get into the building if no one is on duty). You have to pay to rent a cover and towel. There are good amenities (ample showers and toilets) but unless you bring earplugs you're going to have a hard time sleeping. The website is not a reliable indicator of what the place really looks like. …
