    What I didn’t like: The room itself is quite basic, with minimal facilities aside from a small bathroom and shower, which might feel cramped for some. However, there are additional bathrooms available in the hallway that can be used if needed.

    The location is excellent, just a short walk from Hamburg Central Train Station, making it very convenient for travelers. The hostel also provides lockers downstairs where you can securely store your luggage and explore the city without any hassle.

    Hostel has seven floors, but only one lift.

    Hostel is right next to the main station. Rooms are spacious enough, but toilets are very small. However, they are some (bigger) toilets in each floor.

    The bed consisted of two single mattresses that slid apart all the time. Also there was a hallway door right next to our room that made the whole room shake every time it fell shut.

    Good location and price, room was fine, everything you needed was there.

    One of the staff, was extremly slow. I met him ont he morning of the 16. September and he needed like 10 minutes per person, even if it was a simple request like a checkout. Furthermore his german was really bad and even his english was not that great

    The Location is ideal for travellers, even more if you are only staying for 1-2 nights. However in the night there are a lot of weird people at the HBF and since it‘s next to the hostel, you would meet them as well

    Extremely small toilets, worst than the airplane ones. Very hot room, no ventilation, you cannot open the windows. Also has no cutlery or a specific place to prepare your food if you buy outside. Not very welcoming, would not even recommend to socialise. Unfortunately couldn’t cancel the rest of my nights. Do not recommend.

    Just the location near the central station, but the area itself is not very nice

    Due to the location of this hostel, it was very noisy. We had to keep the window open to try and cool the room (there is no AC), and in doing this we were met with very loud protests, and groups of loud drunk people throughout each night. It is much quieter with the window closed, however, it is then very hot in summer.

    The room was quite spacious and had a large television. There was plenty of bathroom amenities provided.

    I didn't like the pillow much because it was very low and I had to sleep with my arm under my head. Another point was the summer in Germany is very high, with high temperatures, and the room is very warm. They need to think about putting an air conditioner to make tourist life more comfortable.

    The room was lovely, with a very comfy bed. It was very clean and is value for the price. The location is amazing, just beside the central station, so I could easily go everywhere.

    I think the shower is really small and uncomfortable.

    The location is very good, close to the central train station and the metro. The bed is comfortable and there's a box under the bed where you can store your personal belongings (I recommend taking a padlock).
