This the worst place I ever stayed. I didn’t even sleep in the room. I waited in the lobby until it was time to leave for my flight. I didn’t feel comfortable but the three young men in the room were friendly.

being next to the train station is convenient but it's a shady area that you wouldn't want to be in

My overall experience was very good with the hostel. The room was nice, bed was nice and clean and was provided fresh linens for it. The staff was very welcoming and helpful. Room was clean as well as the bathrooms. The breakfast was nice

The proximity to the main train station is great. The place is great with an awesome vibe, the neighborhood no so good though.

Stayed here 2 nights. We had a great time the first day, no issues. On our second night we were getting ready for bed and found around 10 bed bugs in both beds. Went to the front desk and was told they were all booked up and since it was night shift they couldn’t refund us. They gave us no alternatives so we had to sleep on the floor. The next morning the staff was very remorseful and gave us a refund for our stay. If it was not for the bed bugs we would have had an amazing time.

The (short) walk from the train station to the hostel was a little concerning, but the hostel is very safe, clean, and friendly.

I book the top floor, for a single room. People stay at dorm bed will come to the top floor, use its space for playing guitar, personal stuff without permission. In the middle of the night, 12:15 am, someone will break in my own. I told the staff, they did not think it was a big deal.

Budget hostel and thats what get for what you pay; staff could be a little bit polite and welcoming. Personal observation is that, rooms lack ventilation (no windows) to hel air circulation and so, I couldn't sleep inside my alotted room.

Everything good. Very friendly staff and the hostel is very clean and well organised. Just one thing, I paid through Expedia with my credit card and at check in I had to show the Email from the host that the payment was successful. They didn't have a record of me paying.

The hostel was clean, the staff was friendly, and I had a nice interaction with other travelers there. The location, though conveniently close to the main train station, is the red light district and gets quite dirty on Saturday night. But I, a man, nevertheless felt safe walking to and from the hostel even at night.

I decided to stay in the hostel at the last minute. The reception was very comprehensive and gave me 2 hours earlier check-in. The locker provided was safe. Lack of air-conditioning system (it was quite hot in Frankfurt). The area where the hostel is located has lots of drug users, which makes me feel unsafe. Although it's well located (the heart of the city centre)

Stay was ok, just one night with my brother. We knew about the location being in the red light district, not an issue since we chose this for the proximity to the hbf. The staff that checked us in was not friendly at all, smiled at the two guest ahead of us and when it was our turn she was dull and expressionless. The bathrooms and showers were shared and were in an ok condition, just like at a dormitory at school. We had a private room and I’m glad I booked that for the privacy.

Nice hotel and welcoming hostel 3 mins from Frankfurt train station also just by the red lights district area. At first the surrounding areas and people looks bit scary or intimidating but to be honest they just mind their own businesses. Great location and good value for Money also they provide breakfast which is bonus 😊

I had an amazing stay at Five Elements. Though they say they are in the red light district, I had no issues with the neighborhood. I met some fun travelers while there. The staff was amazing and attentive. I highly recommend staying here!

The best hostel I have stayed at in Europe! The staff are friendly and the bar is great even when it’s not happy hour.

The overall atmosphere was nice at the hostel. However the bed mattress and room ceiling are very dirty. I was on the top bunk and later at the end of the next day I discovered there was bed buds bites on my back! I have travelled a lot and know what a bed bud bite looks like. I am willing to supply photo if needed. I am very disappointed despite reading good reviews. I also booked another night before I leave the city in a few days. I am not sure if I can cancelled that booking given this special circumstances.

Don’t recommend this facility for anyone, Expedia charged me way too much for something doesn’t worth a damn dollar, I got charger $105 for something doesn’t worth more than $20, & that what it’s worth after I checked their website. Bad & unsafe area. Bad service and I feel like I was in a detention facility, I feel sorry for my money.
