Pros: The staff did their best and always did so with a smile, but I feel like they may need additional support and training from management. The location is smack dab in the middle of old town and incredible and definitely makes up for all of the negatives, especially combined with the low price point. However, I can't say I would recommend this hostel.

Cons: There were lots of little things (ie. laundry not being done, bar crawls being cancelled last minute, the hostel thinking I hadn't paid for the booking when I had, someone coming into my private room because the front desk gave her the wrong keys, bar music being heard in my room until 3am, a very uncomfortable mattress, etc.). Again, little things, but they all added up over time.
7,1 Good
Pros: ......
Cons: Extremely poor in the dormitory without individual bed lamps complete darkness at midnight, the door lock generate huge noise at night each time someone come in or go out can hear the lock noise so loud, worst of all everyone had to self clean up the bed and also self changing the bed sheet, no workers at all. All shower room and toilet lamps were censored control and it goes off every few minutes suddenly blackout in the middle of shower and toilet too. Waking up at midnight was a torture no where to sit as the only lobby+kitchen area was closed at night, sitting inside toilet was the only option at least it has light there but blackout every few minutes. Enough, only 2 nights for me, the same area has many more hostels with similar prices I moved to another hostel immediately.

Pros: I would totally recommend booking this hostel. Reservation went smoothly, the room was spacious and clean. We have not used the kitchen, however, it seemed to be fine. Moreover, I have forgotten a loudspeaker and they were willing to send it to me even abroad without any problem. I appreciate that. Thank you again.

Cons: Noisy if staying in the room facing the street, if available, ask for the room with the windows to the yard
8,3 Excellent
Pros: I loved the location and facilities.
Cons: I had a couple of roommates who made a lot of noise in the middle of the night and were very disrespectful. They even did not bother to apologize. My recommendation for the hostel would be to not take guest who are working in Tallinn for, instance, as food delivery or so on as the guests. They come very drunk at night and talk loudly while people are sleeping and get very defensive if asked to be quite.

Pros: Location is perfect and stuff is very welcoming and helpful.
Cons: There is a club downstairs so no chance you’ll fall asleep until 3am cuz the music is very loud and you hear the beats in your room. On the pictures the place looks old style and authentic but in reality it’s just old

Cons: Unfortunately, the rooms were way more shabby and dirty than on the pictures. It smelled cigarettes in our room, I guess because of the guys smoking in the room next door. Also, we were accommodated in the building without internet access
5,0 Okay
Pros:
Cons: The reception only accept cash. The room is messy and smelly. What terrible is I found all my bed sheet and pillow were gone after I came back in the evening. I decide to check out in the evening finally.

3,3 Mediocre
Pros: Well located and easy to find
Cons: Do not go there. This is not a hostel, this is a place for russian and ukrainian workers run by Romani people. The male toilet is quite an adventure, not only a war might have taken place there but people use the only functioning sinks to wash and scratch their feet. Zero sanitation. Was woken up by a drunk russian who burst into my room and was standing in my bed watching me sleep. The recepcionists are usually nowhere to be found and when they are there, they have no control of anything. Sometimes a 8 year old kid is the only staff present. The noise is something to be told, families live in the upper floors and have no respect for noise rules. Loud conversations occur between 2 - 5 am. Booked and payed for 4 days, left a day earlier, couldn't bare to stay there any longer. Do not recommend to anybody.
