Poor room ventilation
The place was clean but the room ventilation was not good. I had a bad experience with the locker door lock jammed all the time because of faulty lock sensor and a dirty snoring room mate.

Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
I couldn’t believe that this place had a 4.2 rating on Expedia. I’ve been using Expedia for the last 10 years. I’m usually never disappointed with the rating of three or better never mind four. Their rating seems scandalous. We were required to wear slippers in the shower. I’ve stayed in about 15 hostels during my 90 days stay in Europe since August. I was never in a hostel that required you to wear slippers in the shower. The food area was unpleasant. No washer and dryer for your clothes. The services provided by most hostels. And the worst part of all was the receptionist on the day I left, Wednesday, November 13, 2019. She showed no interest in helping me with any of my concerns and kept asking me when I’m going to check out when I still had an hour of time left before the official check out time. In every hostel I’ve ever stayed in the receptionists all spoke very good English and went out of their way to try and make me feel comfortable and answer any of my questions. I could go on but I’m enjoying my day and a beautiful place closer to the center of the city. Hopefully the Expedia customers will read my review and not just rely on their rating.

Everything about it is annoying.
Odd corporate and soulless place. Staffed by people who seem miserable and irritated that they are there. I have never stayed anywhere with so many signs posted. Everywhere you look there is a hand written sign admonishing guests, giving the appearance of either a jail or a preschool.

Surprisingly good
I was sooo much surprised - positively. The hostel is unbelivably clean, beds are comfortable. Sheets are packed in the sealed individual bags. The kitchen is big and comfortable with lots of tables - each has its own socket - nice to work or just relax there. The only two minuses - in my 2 beds room was no window and no individual light above each bed - I have to take off my lenses and its really terrible to climb up and down to switch off the light.

Good value for money!
Good location, you can walk to the center in around 20 minutes. It’s a breeze to catch a train or a bus, both stations are very near to the hostel. Breakfast was just porridge, but for such a price you can’t except too much. A reading light could do, you could read etc. Atmosphere was maybe the reason I wouldn’t go back, there just wasn’t the “it”.

Cheap hostel 5 min. far from the main train station. Good wifi connection. Free breakfast but only oatmeal. I booked a dormitory via hostel.com, but they cancelled it, at wanted to pay more. So be prudent!

Комфорт за свои деньги
Очень понравилось, что сразу можно оставить в камере хранения багаж! А не ждать, когда настанет время. Есть горячая вода, овсянка на завтрак - тоже отлично. И неплохо, что шкафчик на карточке. Единственный минус - мало свежего воздуха (была комната без окон) и лестница для подъёма на 2 уровень кровати очень режет ноги... Но в целом все хорошо) Если буду ехать в командировку ещё - остановлюсь здесь снова)

Effective housing system, small lockers. In reception there is only 1 english speaking emplyee. Too many people who don't use shower daily. Good place if you pass through Kiev with one small backpack.
