Visit Vilnius : Stay in a cheap and confortable hostel

Pros: The bedroom of 6 people was practical with a bathroom in it. The place is daily cleaned which makes it confortable. The hostel is located near the city and the train station, you can walk or take the bus. If you arrive from the top of the hostel, you can have a beautiful view on the city. What's more, the coffee and tea is free and you can order a croissant for 1.5 euros. The staff is present to answer our questions, they are kind and do their best. I recommend this place for a trip in Vilnius, cheap with a good quality.

Pros: I totally forgot to leave a review as I was here in late October. Great hostel design with kind friendly staff, loved the outdoor terrace and the free coffee and nice music and ambience. Cheap single private room was nice to get some better rest in also. Would certainly return if I ever get back to Vilnius. Best wishes, Max :)

Pros: The hostel's facilities are in good condition. The personnel are always ready to assist. The room is always clean. The bed lining changes every day. Great solution and location to stay in Vilnius. The kitchen is fully equipped for self-cooking. Free tea and coffee are available in the morning time. People from different nationalities choose this hostel to stay for their leisure, vacation and business trips. Here you can find a large recreational area where you can find also co-working space.

Cons: All in good order.

A cosy stay. I slept well, and I felt good for some reason in this hostel.

Pros: The fireplace. The staff. The design and layout of the hostel itself. Cosy interior. (You feel no cold even when it is -15 degrees Celsius outside!) Quite at night. Lots and lots of board games to choose from. And lots and lots of books to read if you know Lithuanian. (I don't know if they have English books too). Also I like the decorations and aromatic stuff that they put around all over the hostel. Free tea and coffee in the morning between 8 a.m and 10.30 a.m. Very generous. Thank you Downtown Hostel. :D Free soap in the shower. (Another nice compliment) The tap water is good and you can just fill your water bottle from any tap water in the hostel. I really appreciate that! They have a calendar chalked with activities which I found interesting but did not have time for it myself.

Cons: Noisy equipment. The shower extractor on the second floor sounds very noisy. There is I think a humidity extractor down in the kitchen area which is also noisy. And above all the air extractor in our room was very noisy. It sounds kind of like a hoover, and sometimes it goes on and off every 2 minutes. Luckily they gave us ear plugs which is the only way to not hear this noisy air extractor and fall asleep. The shower doors on the second floor are flimsy and its difficult to pat down after the shower in private if 2 people are using the showers at the same time. The shower downstairs is perfect however. No problems at all there. My bunk bed was wobbly. I was on the one on top and when the person in the bed below moves around the bunk bed on top shakes. It can be very irritating. It would be great if they can secure the bunk beds to the wall thereby eliminating a lot of the movement. A staff member did not let me put a piece of wood in the fireplace for fun. :p My hand was itching. (Probably I was going to make the fire too hot with more wood burning in the fireplace and she explained that it was good for now.)

Great for a short stay, would definitely return! :D

Pros: The staff were super welcoming, nice and helpful! :) The kitchen area is quite large, and there's a bunch of board games and other things for people to enjoy in the common areas.

Cons: There could be more WCs and showers for the number of guests there are, since one was also out of order during my stay. The beds in the rooms could be a bit more sturdy, and allow for more privacy. General cleanliness could also be improved.
