Avenue Hostel

Best place to make a pitstop in Budapest. Good balance of lively atmosphere and rest. Breakfast and optional dinner are of excellent value. Cleaning issues are rear, and staff are top notch:)

The hostel is not far from downtown, three metro stops from Deak Ferenc ter (square), the central downtown transit hub. And the metro station is 100 meters from hostel. I was received by an unkind and unfriendly female receptionist who did not want to give me a bed far away from the AC. I checked in at 15:30, when the other beds were available, but she was just lazy to change my bed. In the evening as the AC was blowing so hard and I did not want to wake up sick in the morning, I had to ask another receptionist to find me another room where the AC was blowing normally. He had a hard time to find another bed. When the next day during check out I talked to the manager and stated that I was not happy with the unkind receptionist, she got even more angry. However, the front desk manager noted my complain about the AC and said they would be working on it. Upon picking my luggage I noted that my towel was stolen from the towel rack on the fourth floor terrace. Actually, you have to pay to rent a towel, and some guests do not want to do it, they prefer stealing other guest’s towels. I checked out with the front desk, and they investigated the missing towel with cleaners, but did not find my towel, which was very different than hostel’s ones. I was happy that my luggage that was left at the reception desk upon check out was ok.

I stayed here for 2 nights and I'd say this is a pretty good deal for a short-term stay. Breakfast is included, amenities are good and staff are great. Petra at the reception was really accommodating and attended my inquiries on time.The location is perfect, near the tourists spots like the one I uploaded , the hero's square, and a lot more since it's located in the city centre. Keep it up and hope to stay there again in the future. Thank you.

It was super experience 😘

The location of the hostel was amazing. Interior of the rooms are mostly green in color

The elevator was quite scared to use. The hostel was quite hard to notice from outside. What I like here is its location and my breakfast included.
