This hostel was just off the centre of Budapest, but there were still plenty of little cafes and bars, it was just a 10-15 minute easy walk from Deak Ferenc, the centre transport area. It was lovely and clean and rooms are set around a little courtyard. Staff were very helpful and our room had great facilities including air conditioning, a safe and a kettle for hot tea and coffee. Would definitely stay here again.
