The common spaces were really well kept and stocked for anything you'd need to cook. I liked it being so close to the water and old Town. Staff was very nice also.i wish I had more than one night there.

I had a wonderful stay at this hostel in Tallinn and definitely give it 5 stars! The location is absolutely perfect - right in the heart of the Old Town, making it super easy to explore both the historical and more modern sides of the city entirely on foot. It’s also just a 20–30 minute walk from the international bus station (I arrived with FlixBus) and the port, which was very convenient. The hostel regularly organizes activities, which is great for meeting people, but I really appreciated that the rooms remain quiet - there’s a designated quiet time after 10 PM, which is respected. I also asked for a lower bunk and they kindly provided it, which I really appreciated. A couple of useful tips: bring your own padlock for the lockers, and note that towels aren’t included - though you can rent one for a small fee. Overall, the value for money is excellent. The only downside was the Wi-Fi - while usable, speeds were around 30 Mbps down and 10 Mbps up, which is decent but I was hoping for something faster (closer to 100–150 Mbps). Still, I highly recommend this hostel for anyone visiting Tallinn - amazing location, friendly staff, and a great atmosphere!

The way how beds are located inside the room is very cozy and comfortable - minimum contact with the roommates. The stuff was welcoming, showed and explained everything. The location is right in the city centre but not near any loud bar or nightlife, so it was good at night too

Despite being a "self service" hostel it doesn't feel impersonal and empty. The staff leaves messages, channels for feedback, makes small gestures for a friendly atmosphere and showing they will be available if you need help. The quality of the beds, toilets, cleanliness etc is a level above the vast majority of hostels. I am usually not a huge fan of "self service hostels" but this one is different. It's also very close to the bus station and not so far from the airport, so very useful if you are just transiting through Tallinn.

I have given this property a 10, simply because in a city like Tallinn where there is next to no affordable accommodation, this one stands out as an exception. So I want to commend it to anyone who wants to consider a value for money proposition.

Looking for a hostel?

Budget travellers know that there is no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a bit more.

    To be honest, it's one of the worst hostels I've been to. the dormitory formula if you are on the 2nd floor.. it's Hasbeen! the showers are in the basement! the locker system is not safe. then I took a single room.. it's better but doesn't correspond to the picture of the website where i booked. You are mistaken ! Globally it's not a modern Hostel. Advantages: it's well located. Disappointed! JEAN
