I stayed at several hostels during my European backpacking trip this year and hands down Lollis was…read moreone of the best places I stayed at. Sure, I was kind of biased on picking this particular hostel, due to it's name striking an eerily resemblance to my bff's nick name, but it's price, location, clean facilities, cool staff, interesting decor, and yes, tasty breakfast, sealed the deal for five stars. I also liked the fact that the tour guide that stops there is a really funny and awesome local that knows not only all the good eateries and bars but an encyclopedia worth of history of the area and pretty much about the country. Kudos to you kind sir! But back to the hostel, they have laptops you can use if you left yours at home and wi-fi is best in the common areas. This isn't a party hostel, which is fine by me. I'm sure you'll still meet super friendly travelers who wouldn't mind hitting up one of the many dive bars in the Neustadt area. Lastly, did you see that earlier? I wrote bff. BFF. It's ok, you can still trust my review.

This hostel was everything I was hoping it would be!…read more My friend and I found it easily using our GPS. We were greeted by a very friendly bilingual desk attendant (my friend that I was traveling with is fluent in both English and German but my German is very lacking!) who answered every question we had. We were in a 6-person room, but there only turned out to be three of us staying there. For 4 extra Euros we were able to add Fruhstuck (breakfast!), and it was a lovely spread, especially for the money it cost. On the first floor of the hostel were two common rooms where people could socialize and make coffee and tea. It was also well-stocked with board games. Other bonuses: wifi included, a great crowd of fellow guests (hopefully that's always true!), and did I mention the Fruhstuck? Con: there is no free parking to be had in Dresden; this isn't the hostel's fault.

The staff was very accommodating. The room was clean. However, I suspect because of Germany 's…read moreongoing energy crisis, the room was a little cold. Working the furnace was a little bit difficult. W-Fi was good. Location was good, it's in the "new city" and walking distance from plenty of restaurants and bars. It is still a walking distance from the old city too. It was a nice independently, owned hostel. I would return.

If there's one thing that you really can't fault the Mondpalast on then its location…read more Louisenstrasse is packed with bars and places to eat so you don't have to worry about a long walk home at the end of your drinking excesses. It's also clean and comfortable, however there were a few niggles. You don't automatically get a towel in your room, but the staff are happy to provide you with one on request, it was however closer to a tee-towel though in proportion. Furthermore, the shower in my room wasn't the best with the temperature fluctuating widely as well as the shower head spraying the water in every direction other than me which is quite impressive considering my stature which could never be described as skinny. I'd also recommend taking ear plugs as the nearby church decided to make itself known to us at 7am, which is never a welcome time after an evening of drinking. There was also some drilling being carried out near to the hotel, further impeding my sleep plans.
