You can really tell she cares about her guests. The rooms were huge, clean, and very comfortable—much more spacious than I expected! I also appreciated the little touches, like the free toiletries provided in case you forget anything, and the fact that there’s a kitchen available for use, which made the stay even more convenient. Would absolutely recommend and would definitely stay here again! ##### Sara Stayed 2 nights in Sep 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Mahima Sep 20, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities My stay at Gaia hostel was amazing!

We had a wonderful and spacious room with a big window that makes the room very luminous. Highly recommended, we will be back here if we happen to come back to Budapest! ##### Romina Stayed 5 nights in Dec 2023 ### 8/10 Good #### Chihiro Oct 8, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities I could stay here so comfortable.The hotel owner and her partner were very very helpful and kindness. They taught me Budapest sightseeing even though I send rude emails and I couldn’t speak English very well. It’s my first time to stay the hotel which like airb.

That is the only point of concern. ##### Chihiro Stayed 4 nights in Sep 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Emma Jane Nov 2, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Spacious twin room and access to a well-stocked kitchen.

Wonderful staff. The hostel is small and it's on the 4th floor of an old building but there is an elevator. Despite the fact that it's small we didn't really run into the other guests and never had to wait for showers or toilets which was good. The only thing our double room was small and didn't have air con and it was around 36 degrees when we went so sometimes had trouble sleeping because it was too hot. There was a small fan thing that didn't work so we left the windows open which made it loud and still didn't really help cause no breeze blew in and the bathrooms got really hot. Though it's really close to the metro and to shops and supermarkets. The bus from the airport drops you off just around the corner so it's handy. And they let us check out late which was awesome. ##### Aleisha Stayed 7 nights in Aug 2019 ### 8/10 Good #### Lisa, Amsterdam Aug 17, 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Super fijn hostel in het centrum van Boedapest.

It is clear that many people return here again and again. Of course, there is no AC, so people using it in summer are taking a chance that it is not too hot.
