It was a great experience there.. We enjoyed a lot with the students belonging to different countries living there. The main thing is that Location was perfect in city center..

i really didn’t like it there. the owner was weird and gave me really uncomfortable feelings. he also gave us another room than we booked, but on the second day, when we weren’t there, he took all our stuff and put it in another room, without us knowing! the location is good, but personally, i would really not go back there, just a weird atmosphere in general.

Had a great experience at this hostel! Close to Keleti station, very well priced and room was clean. Not a super social hostel, but if you’re looking for something quiet this is perfect. Only reasons I’m giving it a 4/5 is because they only accept cash, it’s a little hidden away and hard to find and the bathrooms were a little weird. But for the price you pay it’s perfect.

I liked this hostel for three reasons:

1) It's close to everywhere. I could easily reach any part of the city as the metro station was a few meters away.

2) It's quite cheap. I stayed there for 2 whole weeks and I only payed about 50 euros. Thanks to this is that I could enjoy more the city attractions.

3) I could share with different people from all over the world. In my case I could see people from Italy, Peru, Japan, Germany, Portugal and others.

The only things I didn't like much were that some of my roommies were quite unclean and that the hostel doesn't have lockers for your properties. However, the first factor is not something that the accomodation can fix.

Overall, I'd definitely go to this hostel again.

Would not recommend at all.
1. It is loud, the room is directly at a bigger junction.
2. The hostel itself is a mess, not tidy at all (including the bathroom).
3. The host did not behave professional. E.g. he just accepted cash, although in Hungary it is a must per law for shops, hotels etc. to accept card.

An authentic Budapest experience. Helpful host. Big bag of laundry only cost 1000 HUF.

The location is nice the owner is friendly and the place is clean. Since it is by the main road its a bit noisy and dusty.

Pretty good hostel if you're on a budget. I was comfortable.

I'd say this hostel is an ideal place to spend time in Budapest. It is located in the very centre of Budapest, near the international train station, Keleti Pu, as far as 10 minutes to walk to the Danube, to Budapest bridges and the historical part of Budapest. Every important must-see is virtually at your hand's reach!
Apart from having a friendly and great, a bit intimate atmosphere (since it can fit only up to 15 people), you can mingle in private and shared rooms, and their service offers your so much free stuff : this including free internet facility (both WiFi and PC connection), laundry service, self-catering kitchen, bed linen and towels, including of course free Budapest maps and broshures. The best thing I would emphasize is an easy 0-24 hrs check in, which is really good for you if you happen to be coming in late evening hours. I' ve been there for several times so far, and all I can say is one thing - this place is definitely worth both your time and, not to mention, money! Welcome to Locomotive Light Hostel! :D
