It was my first time staying in a hostel. I opted for the 6 bed all female and it was honestly such a great experience 😊. The beds comfy, private bath spacious, view from room 👌. Cute sitting area in room. They had 6 large wooden shelves with pad lock holes on the doors. One shelf per bed. Each shelf fits a carry on and back pack. Bring your own lock for it. The hostel itself has a friendly staff and convenient kitchen access. Double locked door entry into reception area. Prime location to walk out front door and walk anywhere or have transit right there. A couple places to eat directly nextdoor open late. When I come back to Budapest I will intentionally stay here. I loved it.

I must say this is one of the best place to stay in Budapest. Ruin pubs, fashion street is at a walkable distance. Very well connected with public transports. I reached at around midnight and it didn't feel unsafe.
Hostel staff is too good. I met Soroush at check-in and he is a wonderful guy. He was available even around 1am for the smooth check-in experience.
I asked him about the nearby attractions and the public transport and he helped with everything he could.
Hostel is very clean and i met very nice people in my dormitory. Kitchen was provided as well and it was clean, more than my home kitchen😃

Péssima estadia, decepcionante

Foi horrível. Roubaram meu MacBook Pro e de mais um guest no mesmo quarto, arrombou o armário e roubou o meu MacBook e do outro guest. Tirou o meu ganha pão e do colega. Não tem câmera dentro do quarto ou de frente para os armários, somente na entrada do quarto. O cara fez check in, roubou e saiu e não voltou mais.

Room was very small but just enough to stay for a few days. Shower drain was bad and water flooded to outside the shower stall, wetting the entire bathroom floor. Front desk clerk came to check on it, promised that maintenance would fix it the next day, but it never happened because we still had the broken drain the remainder of our stay here. Common kitchen access was nice so that I could make my cup of tea.

* Pros: Central location, right next to a big supermarket, safe key entry system to rooms, friendly reception, tea selections at kitchen, close from aiport bus stop (you can take 100E bus at airport and cost only about 2GBP, 30-40mins ride)

* Cons: You need to bring your own lock if you want to use private storage/locker, late check-in time (3pm) but provided communal luaggage storage

Clean hostel w/ basic amenities and friendly staff

Check-in and out was smooth, and I was able to store my luggage in a locked room for free as I explored the city while my bed was being prepared (I showed up a few hours before the check-in time). There were lots of common spaces outside the bedrooms to meet other guests which I appreciated as this left the rooms quiet for those who wanted to sleep a bit earlier or nap. The bathrooms were clean and there was a hair-dryer available. The hostel provided me with a towel and a lock for locking my luggage outside the bedroom, both free of charge. The staff are also very knowledgeable about events around the city, and were happy to help with finding out the costs of different activities. The hostel staff made sure I had a car hired to the airport - this service was great, they walked into the hostel to pick you up so you don't have to wait outside late at night, and overall was a very safe experience. The hostel itself is easy to locate as it is near a large bridge, but still felt safe, and was quiet at night even with the windows open.

Very well located !! No need for airport shuttles

So close to metro, bus and rail services !!
City centre is on your doorstep and most sites like musemns, parliament buildings, spa baths are all within 15 minutes walking distance.
Restaurants, shops and local convenience stores are in the same city block.
Hotel staff are informative, entertaining and very obliging.
Facilities at the hostel are excellent !! Lockers, luggage rooms, kitchens, fridges, freezers are all available to residents. Free Wi Fi, as well as computers, printers and a range of discounted tours, attractions and free goulash at selected restaurants.
The hostel hosts a variety of events through the week that residents are invited to try ! A lovely experience !! 😀👍

Good for the price

The building is very old, scary of you arive at night, makes it looke worse than it realy is. Staff is great, very helpful! They don't clean the rooms daily. Location is great, a few steps from metro station and bus stop and in a walking distance to major atractions. Even if they have a lift, you still have to take your luggage through some stairs until get to the lift, very inconvenient. They don't have breakfast, but they offer vouchers (paid separetly) to a cafe nearby that serves amazing food!

Great

This place has a nice mix of clean and modern but also with character. The entrance is really nice. The biggest dorm's beds are really close together and it can get quite loud. I like that the lockers are in the hall. They make your bed every day!

Good for a night or two

We stayed here one night before we could check into our resort outside of town and it serves it's purpose. You have to pay exact cash when you get there in Hungarian forints or euro. But don't expect to get change. Two bathrooms per floor was not enough as only one person could be in there at a time.

In general, the staff were very helpful and friendly. The hostel was quite clean and tidy. Eventhough I stayed a night there, my bed was tidied and the waste basket was cleaned the following morning. All the kitchen facilities were available including cooking utensils, etc. To top it off, free flow of teas and coffees!

Most excellent stay!!

I had a wonderful stay in one of their dormitory rooms. It's the first time I ever stayed in a hostel so I was a little apprehensive but I absolutely loved it and have already booked flights to go back again in September!!

Such a warm and welcoming place with lots of exciting people from across the world and exciting staff!!

I would recommend this place to anybody who loves a charming and yet quirky old buiding!!

It's right in the centre so it's a perfect location to go and see everything too!!

Nice hostel in excellent location

This hostel is right in the centre of town - perfect as a base for exploring. Lovely inside - the room and common area were both really nice. A little noisy in the room since it was double glazing - but then we did have bad luck with someone erecting a statue outside the window one night (at around 3/4 am) and an alarm the next night at a similar time. Not their fault - so all in all, would totally recommend it.

Pretty Fabulous

The hotel staff is nice and friendly. The location is superb. The amenities are like no other hostel you will find. The only reason I gave 3 stars for comfort of room is the bed is very spring-y, meaning you can feel the springs in the bed when you sit/lay down or move. It's not very comfortable. I especially enjoyed using the computer, free WIFI and drinking free tea/coffee. They will give you a towel and lock for the lockers if you need them. Get a day pass from the Information Desk at the airport (1650 HUF for 24hrs) for the public transport and take the 200E bus from the airport to the M3 line. Take M3 for 9 stops Fereinck Ter and when you exit, the hostel is straight ahead on the left. The signs are not easy to find.

Great budget hostel close to the city centre

The hostel was difficult to find at first because it was hidden within a building, but otherwise it is centrally located and walking to most tourist spots take only 20 minutes max. The building is not new, but the rooms are well maintained and clean.

2 star hotel? 5 star service

The staff are very friendly, and very helpful, they speak excellent english, and offer a wide variety of tourist information. There was a problem with my room so they put me in an apartment for the same price, which was absolutely amazing. Hotel is right in the centre of budapest too. I have stayed here before and would stay here every time i come to Budapest.

Quick overnight stop

I arrived for just an overnight stop over following a stag-do and I have to say it was much better than the hotel we had been staying at. Great location for seeing the city and for sampling some of its entertainment. Close to a metro station. Staff were friendly and helpful. Interesting group of people there to chat to, so overall I was very pleased and had a good night's stay.

Helpful and accommodating staff, clean hostel, safe neighbourhood, good location and comfortable beds. I didn't spend much time in the hostel as I wanted to get out and see as much as possible, but, while I was there, I felt secure and happy and I would definitely recommend it to anyone else I knew going to Budapest. P.S. What an AMAZING city :)

Excellant location of the Hostel

Very nice and helpful staff, clean and tidy room, good condition facility, but it would be perfect if wi-fi would not disconncet always. We stayed four nights in total, we can go to opera and castle sights seeing by walking around just 15mins, it's the wonderful location. If the hostel sign more bigger and clear it will be better, we did get lost when we just arrived and locate the hostel at night. Good luck!

超級爛的住宿體驗

入住的房型跟我訂的完全不同,變成是上下層的樓中樓,重點是沒有提前告知,之後反應才說我們訂的房型已滿,給我的是升級的有廚房的房間,根本是騙子,有廚房的房間空間超級小,又很髒,床墊坐上去會坐到底的爛床,樓梯很陡,在很糟的環境睡一晚才給我換原本訂的房間,沒有冰箱,也沒有沐浴乳洗髮精,ㄧ晚$3135CZ,實在不值得,服務員還不太想處理我們的房間問題,到櫃檯還要爬很多階梯,沒有電梯,對於拿大行李來說很吃力,隔音非常差,慎重考慮是否住這間

Che dire....Maverick hostel & Ensuites ha superato ogni aspettativa consiglio vivamente il Maverick ,posto pulito ragazzi gentili ,disponibili pur non sapendo parlare italiano hanno cercato di comunicare bene tutto quello che c'era da sapere,dall' apertura con codice del portone all' utilizzo delle zone in comune come cucina e angolo TV.Ho potuto vedere le ragazze delle pulizie in azione e devo dire che fanno davvero un buon lavoro (voglio specificare che chi nn è di molte pretese come noi, che la nostra camera era una doppia enorme con bagno privato nuovo in camera ,la camera però nn viene mai rifatta e gli asciugamani sono sempre quelli direi ,giusto x quello che si paga ).Il Maverick si trova ad un passo dal centro vicino a tutte le maggiori attrazioni .Potrei semplicemente consigliare di dare in dotazione a chi ha la camera privata una scopa e paletta per poter organizzare la pulizia da se ...il letto non è dei più comodi ma per quei pochi giorni ci si può abituare.Altro consiglio che posso dare e che la nostra camera affacciava sulla strada principale abbastanza rumorosa, x chi come me ha il sonno leggero può essere un po' fastidioso,consiglio di riparare il cassettone del balcone da cui passa veramente molta aria !
