Great place outside the city (island in river)”
The vibe when I got there was amazing, people relaxing out on the terrace couches and just lots of fun to hang out and get to know people. Bit of a walk to get places but that comes with being on a cool island in the Danube

So beautiful place”
The Hostel is located in a nature conservation area, close to the Margaret Bridge, and it took only five minutes to reach the public transportation. The accomodation is clean, which also has a beautiful huge terrace, and the stuff is up-to-date and flexible. The house policy contains some things such as: after 10 pm you have to keep the silence providing the guests a restful sleep. The fully equipped kitchen can be used at any time of the day and at the bottom of the hostel you can find a pub which depending on the weather offers some kind of specialties and you can choose from many varieties.( The langos was the best one)On the Island also has sport swimming pool, Japanese garden and a little Zoo which offers a lot of opportunities. I think one day way too enough to explore not just the city but the Island also. I highly recommend this accommodation not just for a day but for more nights!The taxi cannot go inside the Island, so you have to go by walk or rent a bike etc...

Fantastic!”
The Island Hostel is perfect. The location on Margaret Island is right among its bars and eateries but also it has its own large kitchen and terrace looking onto the Danube. The feeling is of a home from home and the staff will help you in any way. I stayed in three different rooms, all of which were lovely. Highly recommended.

Lovely stay”
This place is special for those travellers looking for some quietness. In the middle of an island and surrounded by a park and besides the river. Staff is nice, they waited for me until 1.00 am, so I'm so grateful and would recommend it!

Best hostel IN THE WORLD!!”
I have been all over the world, stayed at well over 300 different hostels, and this one is hands down by far the nicest I have ever been to. I guess my only complaint would be not of the hostel itself, but the bar downstairs that you get a 10% discount from, the staff there are really unfriendly. Apart from that, can't think of a single thing this hostel could improve.

Disappointing experience ”
The Hostel is just bad, when I first arrived they lete for 40 minutes waiting at the stree although I had already agreed with them regarding my arriving time, The place is dirty at all, uncomfortable, toilets and showers are so dirty and smelly, beds, bed sheets, mattresses and blankets are dirty, full of bed pugs, my body was bited so much and I need now to go to some dermatologist، kitchen is small and dirty, when I asked some guy who works there for a washing soup to wash my dishes he said to go and buy!! What?? I have stayed in tens of hostels around the world but this one was just the worst ever, I usually say that when I travel I only need a place to sleep, but even a comfortable sleep in this place was not possible , the pub plays extremely high rock music till 4 in the morning and the whole floor was vibrating, The room was full of Long term stayers, not tourists, they put their stuff everywhere in the room and never keep any space. Please avoid this place if you don't want your holidays to get damaged.

I think there is something wrong with this assessment. If the guest arrives at the wrong moment, of course he has to wait.That is why the check-in time is set.We don't have any bedbugs either, I am sorry to say that, but he must have picked them up somewhere else.Fortunately we still don't have any, so they are not left here as a "gift". The kitchen is old with a semi-circular window overlooking the Danube, we clean it several times a day, and at the moment we don't have a single male colleague!All but two people in the room came for one night only, they only spent a few nights in the room, which we clean and disinfect every day!It is unthinkable that anyone should have dirty bed linen! The pub was not allowed to play music until 4am,closes at 10pm,there is a silence order on the island from 10pm,controlled by police!No long term bookings at the Hostel!As for the other reviews,what you have written does not stand up,but we respect it,just disagree with it!
