I'm glad I ignored the bad reviews because the place is pretty good for the price.

Yes, bathrooms are small and the room is basic but the beds are comfortable and considering the central location and busy flow of hotel guests it was very quiet and we slept well.

The area can be a bit scary, but it was well policed and the station is basically on th doorstep which helps.

Very nice Hostel, had a great stay! The woman named Samarah at the front desk was the best. Super friendly :) all in all a lovely stay

This hostel felt suuuper grimy, just kinda nasty. Every part of the hostel had a different bad smell. The en suite bathrooms were also tiny, like smaller than an airport bathroom. When you bend over to spit toothpaste in the sink or to wash your face your butt hits the wall. There are additional bathrooms outside of the dorm, but on our floor there was only one per gender meaning it was sometimes occupied. Also no curtains and the lockers are super loud, meaning getting a good night’s sleep was tough.

Pros: lowish price point. The location is nice because you are super close to central station (and public transport options). But also note that its proximity to central station also makes it a bit sketchy. It’s not the nicest part of town.

Location is superb, just opposite side of Central Station. The surrounding may seem a bit intimidating but I had no problem when arrived a bit late in the evening for check in. They had renovation going on and upgraded to private room at no extra cost. Room was fine for a solo traveller, but if a couple, it could have been a tad small. Pharmacy is on the opposite side (which I needed), Penny supermarket is close by. So is the bus and tram stops. Staffs at reception really nice and helpful. Would stay again if visit Hamburg.

I stayed at that hotel a week ago. The location was very nice. The staff was very nice, especially the reception staff were very nice young people. But the rooms were very small and very stuffy. The windows never opened. The toilets and bathrooms were quite small, we felt like we were in a caravan bathroom. Those who came to clean the room in the morning threw the beds on the floor and took the sheets.They were changing the sheets, there were no baskets, the quilts and pillows were thrown on the floor, they were changing the sheets, the woman who came to clean the room in the morning was constantly saying something and she left, slamming the door, grumpy. It was a woman. The toilets and bathrooms were not cleaned with bleach daily. The floors were not cleaned with bleach. The elevators were very dirty everywhere. I think the bed and surroundings of the person who left the house should be cleaned with medication. But still the energy and atmosphere was nice, thank you very much to the receptionist 🙏🙏♥️

I did not know, it will be Pride saturday (weekend) that day.. It was busy and loud area. The price was higher then usually because of that reason. I did not really checked the reviews, coz that was my emergency stay (i could not get on my flight). Anyway, everything was more expensive than in normal days.
I did not expect any warm greeting, so as I know in germany is not really about prioritizing the guests instead of chatting with mates..
The dorms are ok, nothing special, you have in every dorm toilette and bathroom, they are small but well maintained.
The beds are comfy and clean, if somebody is sleeping on the top of bed and moving, you will notice it.
I missed the curtain to have some privacy and dark to close my bed part. Not everyone is respecting that the people try to sleep or they dont feel good.
Road - street under the hostel is not really safe for single woman traveller, or maybe it was my personal feeling. I would not walk and hang around during dark.
The location is close to train station, for one night it is perfect.

Must admit for the given price the room is very poor, bunk beds and a washroom like in a airplane. Water was cooking hot and couldn’t be regulated so no shower for us. Outside environment and especially the people hanging around makes the in and out to the hotel very uncomfortable. We avoided to leave after nightfall. Good point: very close to the main train station

Hi there! It was my second time at the hostel and I really like the rooms. The beds are sturdy. There are two things I would like to critique, the bathroom shower and the toilet are separate, which is nice, but super tiny and they feel a bit cheap. The other one, if you are female traveler like me, the dorm for only females is always much more expensive. This time the price difference was more than half the price Inpaid, last time it would have been double (!) the price compared to the mixed dormitory. To me this feels like a rip off of women trying to feel safe and comfortable while traveling! Please fix your pricing guidelines. Other than that I have been comfortable both times I stayed there.

Excellent location. Room very clean and surprisingly quiet.

The hotel is ideally situated right next to the central railway station. The staff is friendly and courteous, but the roommates can be a bit unusual. The beds are clean and comfortable, although the room layout is not particularly practical. There isn't sufficient space to store luggage, and the sink in the bathroom is somewhat challenging to use.
