Viva Nord Hotel

Cutlery in the kitchen is not at all like cups. In the room with 1 roommate was a stench, although the room was not hot, rather cold.

It really stinks in the rooms, especially in the bathrooms, the old town is a very far walk and the workers are pretty racist, if you are in Estonia, DON'T EVEN THINK COMING HERE.

This hostel was a big disappointment. Room was dirty and stuffy, bathroom had a permanent wet and mouldy smell to it. Weird stains throughout. Bit far of a walk to the old town, in an area with not much character. However it is a cheap taxi ride to the centre but you might as well stay in the centre somewhere with a bit of atmosphere. Staff couldn't speak English (not expecting everyone foreign to be able to speak English, but basic hostel vocabulary I think is necessary for a hostel with many international guests). Checkout was at 12, had a knock on our door at 11.45 just as we were almost ready to leave with the staff member simply saying 'checkout.' to us. When we went downstairs and handed the key (few minutes before 12) the staff member just hmphed and that was that. Felt quite unwelcome, will not stay here again. Top 5 worst hostels I've stayed in.

Horrible place. The whole hostel is in renovation. Everywhere smells really bad. Everything is dirty. There are wholes, there aren't ceiling, the lamps doesn't work. You can't open the vindows. Everything is broken. There are strange people. The bad and toilets smell really bad. It's really disgusting. I have never seen that disgusting. I wouldn't recommend it.

I would not recommend this hostel. Even though they have private and double rooms for a relatively low price, the cleanliness of the whole hostel, especially the bathrooms, leaves a lot to be desired. The staff speaks only a little English and I did not particularly felt welcome during my stay. The walls might as well have been made out of cardboard because I was able to hear all of my neighbors. No spaces to socialize or prepare your food. Just don't bother.
