Great area only stayed here a few nights and didn’t use the common rooms much as I was visiting family in town. All staff was friendly and accommodating, I probably could have met a lot of great people if I had more time. They upgraded my room to an entire apartment which was a very pleasant surprise.
Nothing.

I liked the international guests. I liked it was close to Westbahnhof. The staff was very friendly and helpful. I liked all the comfortable places to sit. The bed was very comfortable.
I thought it was very expensive for a room so tiny and with chipped paint- maybe that’s typical for Vienna . I thought the breakfast was overpriced.

The people, the facilities, the atmosphere and the family dinner, ive stayed in many hostels, i havent seen alot like this one, the cleanliness, and the facilities are some of the best. Also really great for solo travellers, they’re welcoming people and youll meet loads of travellers. its more of a family hostel. I will be coming back

Great hostel to overnight at bike trips, close to cafes, restaurants, etc. Very friendly staff, the in-house bar is a nice bonus.

Spacious, comfortable accommodations with secure bicycle storage, an excellent location, and exceptional staff. They were incredibly accommodating and flexible when my flight was canceled and repeatedly delayed before my arrival.
I couldn’t stay longer

The friendly atmosphere here is notable. The staff is very kind and helpful. The laundry machines are great to have on a long trip. The kitchen is great and the garden seating area is lovely. There is a pay as you wish dinner and coordinated group events most nights. This hostel makes a lot of effort to build community. We enjoyed our stay here very much.
The garden closes at night which made it harder for me to get to the laundry room during that time.

This hostel has an amazing community and culture of fellow travelers! Bar on the bottom floor, guitars and piano for use, tons of board games and lounge space for hanging out and getting to know folks from all over. Amazing staff and great location for sightseeing in Vienna. Nearby major metro station!

Lovely hostel, doing everything they can to make it friendly and comfortable! Nice clean facilities, very helpful and friendly staff, communal dinner (donation based), espresso machine (2-3 EUR). You can “rent” a transportation card for 5 EUR per day (50 EUR deposit). Easy free baggage storage. I would definitely stay here again!!
Not walking distance to the center or central train station, but that’s ok.

LOVED this hostel. It's the best of what hostels used to be- communal living, knowledgeable staff, a multitude of resources. It was great. I definitely recommend a) renting the transit pass. Totally worth it to be able to hop on and off transit all day long for such a low price; and b) Hostel Dinners. Again, totally worth it, great price, good food, and a chance to meet the people you're living with.
The ONLY thing I didn't like was a Front Desk staff member accusing me of stealing a roommate's jacket. 3 people checked out on the same day and I guess one person lost their jacket during that time...and somehow I was blamed. Not cool and ruined the rest of my time in the hostel tbh.

Very clean hostel and quiet neighborhood. Close to the train station and tram.
No air conditioning so the rooms are quite warm and uncomfortable to sleep in at night.

Lovely hostel with a great atmosphere and the location is very convenient for public transportation connections to all areas of Vienna. The common area is great and the bar and special events are a nice addition for evenings in. Also the dinner they offer was delicious.
The gardens are lovely but for those who factor this detail in, there is no smoking allowed in the garden, only on the street outside the hostel. Also the breakfast is not a buffet, it's a la carte, you order from the menu and pay for the items you order. But they do look amazing.
