Casa De La Musica Hostel

I enjoyed my stay at this hostel, but in no way it deserves a 5-star rating. The pro's about this hostel are that it's located very central and has good pricing as compared with other hostels. It also has a bar with friendly staff where you have drinks with fellow travelers, big plus! On the other hand, it is not very well maintained or cleaned. The shared showers are often dirty and broken equipment like shower handles are not repaired. The private rooms are very small and the beds are sub-par, even for this price-class. The staff was generally very friendly, but we also encountered the exact opposite, where the receptionist seemed very irritated about the guests. All in all, the Casa has a nice atmosphere in a central location, but the poor maintenance of the building and the sleeping comfort of the guests could be improved.

This place gets 2 stars just for its location. The rest is just a frustration. It's actually got the potential to be a really great hostel if the staff put any effort in. Little things that cost nothing. Staff are unfriendly, bar seems to be open only when they feel like it, no credit card machine, unwillingness to give keys to each group member. Guests are required to make and then unmake their own beds. Breakfast advertised but not actually available (just take the menu off the wall then!) The decor and facilities are clean and look great, the bar looks great. This could be a 5 star review if all the things mentioned were fixed and fixing them would cost nothing!

The rooms are ok, the beds not so much - small and noisy. The linens were clean, but it looks like they are there for a long time and should have been changed a long time ago. Hostel has also nice terrace with food and bar, which is open from the morning hours. There is reception open all night, you just have to call a number which is written next to the entrance to get in.

If you can get past the unforgiving B.O stench in your room, you'll be fine. It's a great location, the tram stop is about 3 minutes walking. And anywhere else you may want to visit is roughly a 20-25 min walk away. The staff are helpful. There's maps & free walking/pub crawl tour information available. The beds are comfy, I was expecting my mattress to be hard as a brick, thank goodness it wasn't.

A great Hostel to spend time for a few nights (I only stayed for one night). Beds are comfy, clean sheets, they serve breakfast at a small price in exchange. Bathroom is clean and you can have a nice shower. Staff is very friendly and helpfully. They have internet access, their own pool, and a nice area to spend time and know travelers like you. Would recommend it.

Great place to stay. We stayed here for 2 nights before going to the Sziget festival. We all loved the atmosphere, very easy going. The hostel looks really happy with all the colors. The staff was very helpfull and helped us with everything we needed to know for our 2 day stay in Budapest. The location is great. No complaints at all.

the hostel provides you with exactly what you need for a great price, it can be noisy at times but this doesnt affect you sleeping. The staff were very nice and facilities were clean. You get free wifi, teas and coffees, free use of the kitchen and laundry. Would definitely stay here again for the great price in a central location

An excellent experience! Peter that works there is so friendly, sincere and knowledgeable about anything you have questions about. The atmosphere is quite nice since they have a nice patio area, and the location is tops. It's cash only, which is excellent, and very clean. We had such a good time here!
