Very close to the Graz Train Station. We arrived at midnight and staff were great at welcoming us. The place was well decorated and stocked with snacks, beer, etc. in a nice and cozy lobby. Will definitely stay again when I need an early morning train.

Comfy, good service and convenient location
Very good value for money, walking distance from Graz city centre. Hostel staff gave us some recommendations to visit in the evening. Comfy beds. We were able to park for free down the street as on Saturdays there is no charge after 1pm.

It was cheap and location was good, and the room facilities were adequate. But the communal kitchen was filthy. And the service was pretty average too. Lots of guests checking in early in the morning and disturbing the sleep but I guess that's hostel life.

Good location. Room is clean and spacious. Bed is firm and comfortable but the pillow is too soft for me.
Soundproof walls but you can hear sounds from the corridor clearly through the door.

Room was functional but not the most comfortable. The real issue was the reception and checking in, I had to scan a QR code and register at reception, then the receptionist rudely asked me the same questions, I think he could have just read them off my passport that I handed to him in the first place. He then said I have to sleep in bed number 1, making me concerned I have booked a shared room... I was in a single room with one bed. Unneccessarily rude.
I stayed in a few budget hotel brands this week and unfortunately this was the only one where I felt uncomfortable.

Best budget option
For a budget hotel this place is excellent. I booked a private room and it's perfectly clean, cozy enough and great bathroom. Just be prepared to make your own bed for this price of course

Second stay at this hostel. Overall good, but they used to have lockable lockers in the room, which they’ve now removed, unfortunately. Hope they will bring these back. The windows didn’t have curtains either, making it difficult to sleep.

Not our style
We did a last minute booking for a family with two kids under 5. They liked the playarea in the lobby and bunk beds. Other than that...everything kinda sucked. No parking, you have to make your own beds, slow service ( only 1 poor guy working...he was nice though stressed as he is also the waiter), super cramped rooms, water in shower was like a mist rather than a spray...we were thrilled to check out. However for the price i could see it appealing to solo or budget travelers. For me..not again unless desperate or wanting to save money.

Do not recommend
The black man at the reception it's literally the most rude receptionist I've ever encountered, not only he was giving bossy orders but also was giving incorrect informations.
The place was also quiet smelly and dirty, when I arrived I found above my bed a pack of used tissues. Rooms are very noisy as directly by street and train station, windows should be locked by key to avoid the noise but are not.

Took about an hour to check in at arrival, due to 1 person handling checkins and serving guests. Had asked to stay in women-only dorm, but woke up to two men that had arrived in the middle of the night. Turned out they did have available women-only rooms that had been available all along, but for whatever reason they didn’t respect the request. They did however change my room the next , but for the rest of the stay I had issues with the key not functioning, which they helped me with, except for one of the last days of my stay when I encountered a very difficult employee who kept saying this wasn’t my room and that I hadn’t paid. Even after showing my receipt and proof of full payment, he was very difficult and kept asking why I was in a different room than first assigned. Other employees kept trying to tell him that everything was fine and that I was a guest and that they could see I had paid everything, but he didn’t want to listen to them and I had to spend nearly an hour at the front desk, after a long day and being very tired, trying to sort the issue out.
