    I can't remember how I found this hostel either, but it was the cheapest stay of our entire trip! They responded promptly to my initial emails, and we got set up with a private triple room for just €55. Their email had lots of information about the surrounding neighborhood and transportation options, which was also reflected when we arrived. There is an array of information in the lobby, including specific and detailed directions printed on handouts (bus numbers, subway lines, travel time) to a number of local attractions. The hostel is just down the street from the train station, and when we arrived around 8AM after falling off the overnight train, our room was all ready and we were able to check in, pile up our luggage, and have a quick wash. The room had a small desk, three stools, three bunked beds, a sink, and newish hardwood floors. There were a couple of bathrooms and shower rooms just down the hall (Julie L's review describes the fun of showering with both a timed light and timed waterflow). We ended up taking the subway/tram to get to our various tourist stops, but walked back in the evening, which was only a couple miles along Mariahilfer, which had lots of interesting shops. Being a hostel, it was a bit noisy in the evening, but we were so tired that we slept through most of the noise. The folks at the desk both mornings were super friendly and polite. I'd definitely recommend this place for a cheap and friendly stay. Make sure to bring cash as there is a small charge for using cards.

    Very nice hostel. Spacious common areas, great garden out of the back, good breakfast for under 4 Euros. Bed was comfortable and slept very well both nights I was here. Friendly staff and good information board as well. It is slightly out of the way from the main city centre but easy ride on the underground.

    The location was only about a 10 minute walk from the main train station and a short train ride to old town.

    - Staff: Very friendly with many good tips to offer. -…read moreCleanliness: No complaints. - Location: Great location, very close to a busy shopping area that takes you right to the old city within 20-25 minute walk. A fun walk though. 7 minutes from a main train station, trams and buses. Also from the bus that takes you directly to the airport. Also close to couple of the nice nightlife spots. - Rooms: We got a private room with its private bathroom, it was clean and nice. The weather started to get cold a bit, the heat was turned on right away in the whole facility. - Facilities: Did not get the chance to check out their facilities. No feedback on this. - Internet access: The staff told us we can have it in the common areas, but not in our room. We did have internet access in our room for some reason!

Things were clean, the…read morehallways, rooms, bathrooms, there is also the possibility to ask for a second cleaning if we wanted to. The staff was really incredible. The receptionists were always friendly, smiling and were ready to tell me everything about places I wanted to know (supermarkets, pubs, sights). What i really liked that it was close to everything I could imagine, I didn't even have to take a bus. Overall I was really satisfied for the amount I payed for my stay and am thinking about visiting it another time.
