Strangers in the Night

I usually give hostels the benefit of the doubt since their only purpose is to provide cheap accommodation, but this was just bad. The pros: the staff was super nice and helpful. They made us feel very welcomed. The shower consistently ran hot and was probably the best shower I've had so far on my trip. There are electrical outlets by the bed and blackout curtains in the room which are essential during long Estonian summer days. The cons: oh boy. It seems like it's been months since the room has seen a proper cleaning. Cobwebs in every nook of the room and on the window. Dirt and dust all over the floor. Same scenario in the shared toilet. Just very dirty and cluttered on the first floor in general. The basement. There is zero ventilation in the basement common area/kitchen so it consistently smells wet, damp, and like mildew. It made sitting down here for any period of time horrid. It smelled even worse by the sink since nothing properly dries. Don't even try doing laundry. Overall I can't recommend anyone stay in the dorm for longer than a night. I'm grateful for the bed, but I've stayed at nicer, cleaner hostels elsewhere for the same price.

Nice and clean hostel with affordable price. There's a bar next to this place, so if you mind the noise, this probably isn't the best choice. This wasn't problem for me though.

Clean silent and a lot of space Good staff

Friendly staff on arrival. The ”16eur” turned to €41 but hey, it looked nice in the pictures and reviews are not too bad. Beds were pretty good for this type of accomodation and most seemed fine. But the wifi is dead at times. Segmentet accessponts and awful setup made the network unusable most of our stay. Kitchen and rec area is not very clean, the opposite infact. There are few cents to fix this but its not taken care of in a while. Could be good, but then again there are lots and lots pf mold and signs of ”dont care” on the walls. Lets just say that moss and algae dont come over night. Radon if a fact to be considered at lower levels. Showers at the third floor were not cleaned in a while. A good steaming and scrubbing would have solved most hygene issues. But the showerdoors are also pretty much end of life. Put a solid week or two cleaning up and this will be a gem. Oh yeah, 16 euro? Please!

This hostel has generously sized rooms with only a few single beds in each, so you get plenty of space. Common areas were nice and the building historic. Toilets and showers could've been cleaner.
