Very kind and helpful staff. Reasonable price. The nearby trains can be very loud.
3.0 / 10.0
Stayed for two nights over a weekend and found it to be very quiet with not much atmosphere.
The room was spacious. Locker however was over the other side of the room.
Small kitchen available which could have been cleaner. Fridges available but both had a funny smell.
Nice big common room available. Probably wouldn't stay again as it was a little overpriced for what it was.
4.0 / 10.0
The hostel is quite basic but it's also centrally located, comfortable, spacious and the recceptionist/proprietor offered a very warm welcome. There's free tea and coffee, fridges in your room, and it's only a short walk to the main town square. I'd recommend this for a budget stay in Bratoslava.

The hostel was so spacious! Unlike other hostels that try to fit as many beds into the room as possible, this hostel really went the extra mile to have open areas in the hostel, they even added a couch in the room!

Great host, helpful, freindly and full of local knowledge, Location excellent, short walk from all the main attractions and transportation. Very Clean and modern with all amenities needed (ear plugs Inc and can be useful on a weekend night). Felt more like a shared home rather than a hostel. Thank you.
4.0 / 10.0
Excellent location right next the old town with also easy access to public transports (tramways). Obchodna Ulica is a well known shops and trade street in the heart of Bratislava. The place is very comfy and reasonably priced, nothing of a luxury but you have a proper sleep plus a good hospitality. Wonderful staff at the reception. Coffees and teas available for all, all day at the lounge...have stayed there years back, enjoyed it then and enjoyed it lately. Will always go back for sure and I am in my
60s plus.

Hostel Folks was great! Very clean and modern hostel, it wasn’t very busy during my stay so it was nice and quiet the whole time. Large common room to hang out in. Showers had great hot water and water pressure. Towel and lockers included in stay! Definitely recommend this place. Thank u Rado for all the local recommendations!

One of my favorite hostels I've stayed in. Very laid back atmosphere, fantastic wifi and common space, very clean and well kept, and really nice staff. Much quieter than some of the other hostels in Bratislava, and in an unbeatable location. Would stay here again, and highly recommend!
5.0 / 10.0
The room was clean and pretty comfortable, although a slightly thicker duvet would have been appreciated, it was warm though and the showers were especially good for both water pressure and temperature. Towels and ear plugs are provided in case anyone needs to know! Great local knowledge and very informative on check in. Rado also recommend that we do the free city tour (11:30am and 2pm every day) and this was brilliant.
One thing to be aware of is that if you are out late you will have to buzz security to let you into the hostel and the front gate is locked at some point between 10pm and 1am.
I'd definitely recommend staying here, fantastic location, great value for money and overall a really pleasant stay.

Very friendly and helpful staff, hostel centrally located, cheap.

It is not apartments, it is just former offices, where office tables were replaced by beds.
In the basement is a night club with the dance music, so be aware the loud music can be heard during the whole night.
All in all: cheap, but doesnt worth the price. Next time I add 5 euro more and sleep in a regular hotel.

Well managed and in a great location allowing for exploration of the new and old parts of Bratislava. Staff were always helpful and knowledgeable. We were sad to leave such a comfortable place.

This hostel is very good. The receptionist was here til midnight and he is very helpful.
The room is bigger than we thought and it is comfortable.
Warm water for the shared shower is not enough at night when everyone wants to take a shower.
May need to wait a little bit longer, but the bathroom is tidy.
The kitchen is quite small, but equipped which is very good.
Free biscuits and drinks are plus!

One of the best hostels I have ever stayed at during my travels in dozens of countries! Go and see Rado - easily the best guy in all of Slovakia! He will take excellent care of you and all your needs! I was there as a digital nomad, so I needed perfect high speed wifi and a quiet space to conduct hours of video conference calls. Rado arranged a space for me so that I could work without interruptions. He also gave great city advice and I am so grateful for it! Hostel was super clean. Honestly these are the absolute most huge rooms I have ever seen in any hostel (or even hotel) anywhere! You will definitely not feel crowded here! Fabulous stay, highly recommended!

It is one of the best hostel Id ever stay in my life. Nearby the old town, close to the palace, it is completely normal to receive a room upgrade!

I was just here overnight with my daughter. We had a great experience. It would have been helpful to know beforehand that the entry is a bit indirect. We arrived late. The door led to a dimly lit hallway where a security guard who didnt speak English pointed us to the elevator that took us up to the floor where Hostel Folks is located.Once there, the staff were friendly, welcoming, informative, and efficient. The rooms are clean, modern, comfortable, and quiet. Great location - easily walkable to the Old City and to the well run bus system that connects you to everything else.After we checked out, they let us store our luggage in a locked room. And we were able to use their comfortable common room to wait for our later flight.When I asked the staff where I could find the art that they had in their reception area, he contacted the artist and filled me in on purchasing options. When her art proved to be in limited supply, he offered to let me buy something right off the hostels walls!Really, they went above and beyond.

I went into have a shower at 7.30 a.m. and the water was already cold! The hot water gets used up after one person having a shower (in the female showers) so I would advise only people who do not mind having freezing cold showers to book this hotel. Its just not worth it! Its also noisy with trams running 24/7 and the thump thump of the nearby nightclub so no sleep either!

Bedrooms and bathrooms were spotless. Staff were extremely friendly. Great value for the price paid, I would definitely recommend this hostel to anyone visiting Bratislava. Location was good with 15 minute walk from the station and 10 minute walk to the city centre.

Nice and clean hostel with a great location. All sights are within walking distance. Staff are extremely friendly and helpful. Laundry only 3 euro.
