    I had a fantastic time at Urban Elephants in Bratislava. The atmosphere was friendly and safe, and I easily connected with other travelers. The hostel even organized social events every day, which added to the fun. The location was also great, and I had a comfortable stay in a single room for added privacy. I highly recommend staying here.

    We had an amazing time at Urban Elephants! The atmosphere was lively and fun, and the staff members were really helpful. We met some great people and made lasting memories. The hostel was clean and the facilities were well-maintained. The communal areas were comfortable and inviting. We particularly enjoyed the daily activities suggested by the staff, such as city tours and parties. we had a fantastic experience at Urban Elephants.

    The only minor downsides were the occasional crowded community area and the need for additional restrooms. However, these were not major issues and did not significantly impact our stay.

    Friendly vibe and great social events. The hostel offered delicious vegan dinners for a great price and hosted daily activities like pub crawls and board game nights. They also had helpful staff who gave great recommendations on things to do in the area. The location of the hostel was perfect, close to many key attractions. The hostel was generally quiet at night and allowed for a good night's sleep.

    The walls were thin and it could get quite loud at night. This made it difficult to sleep without being disturbed by noise from other guests.

    I got great value for my money at the hotel. The room was clean and comfortable, with spacious lockers and cozy warmth. The location couldn't have been better, just a short walk to everything I needed. The staff were incredibly friendly and welcoming, making my stay even better.

    The breakfast menu could have had more variety.

    I had a fantastic stay at this place in the heart of the city. The staff here were incredibly welcoming, from the seasonal workers to the manager. They helped out with tours/tickets and offered great advice on places to visit. The shared kitchen and bar/lounge area were excellent for meeting new people, and the board games and leisure/TV room were great entertainment. The room felt comfortable with excellent heating and superb room amenities. The locker room came in handy and there was no need to worry about luggage as there was ample storage. The adults-only policy meant I got a good night's sleep and I was appreciative of the 24-hour reception and security. I definitely recommend this venue to families!

    Definitely recommend this place to families!

    I had a fantastic stay at this big hostel in a central location. The room was comfortable with a cozy bed, and the bathrooms were spacious with great showers. The highlight was the underground bar serving delicious Slovak Caipirinha. The friendly staff, especially Bernardo, provided helpful tips and made me feel welcome. I also loved the fun daily activities like yoga, movie marathons, and trivia. I highly recommend this hostel.

    The hotel is conveniently located close to public transport, making it easy to get around. the rooms are comfortable, and the service is excellent. the breakfast is delicious, with a variety of options to choose from. I also enjoyed the beautiful view from my room, which was breathtaking. There were plenty of leisure facilities available to keep me entertained during my stay, including a gym and a pool. As a solo traveler, I appreciated the friendly staff and the opportunities to meet new people.

    The hotel could have better soundproofing.

    This hostel is perfect for young travelers looking for a fun experience. the staff and volunteers were very friendly and made me feel like I was staying at a friend's house. the location is great, just outside the city center but near public transportation. the facilities are clean and comfortable, with big enough lockers for backpacks.

    One thing that could be improved is the payment method. the system needs to be clearer, as there seems to be confusion about when and how guests are refunded.
