The Hotel was very clean and staff was very helpful and kind. It is in the middle of the city center. You can reach from Airport with the bus 100E.

Amazing location. Basic but has everything you need good size room with all the essentials. Very loud in early morning tho and had some people enter our room a couple of times which was concerning.

Wombat's is about as good as a hostel can get. I met some great people that i went to the grand prix with in my room. Fairly clean and our room had its own bathroom. The only negative was that the room was pretty hot at night but what can you expect when it's 95 degrees F every day. Overall it was a great experience.

The hostel was in a great location close lots of bars, restaurants and close to a major transit hub in Budapest. It was also really convenient to the 100E bus which is what you will take to get to and from the airport. The hostel didn't have any guest activities and the entry felt more like a cheap hotel entry. The kitchen stank really badly and there weren't any utensils or dishes or even pots/pans which basically made the kitchen useless. I had a hard time even getting a bowl and a spoon for my breakfast. The rooms were decent. I was in an 8 bed mixed dorm. The beds had curtains and the room was divided in two meaning there were two bunks on one side and two on the other. This made it feel like a 4 bed dorm rather than an 8 bed dorm which was nice for a bit of privacy. The room had an ensuite bathroom. Typically this isn't my favorite thing for a hostel room but it usually doesn't bug me too much. Typically there are back up bathrooms and showers incase people need to use them while someone is in the bathroom, however I looked all over our floor and didn't see any therefore it was quite annoying to not be able to use the bathroom when someone else was in there. This place I would say was average (not bad but not great). If you are relying on a kitchen, I would avoid this place. This hostel is a good option if you were looking to get to the airport or if location/transit access are more a priority for you than social/atmosphere.

Location, cleanliness everything was good. But at night there was such a loud noise that people screamed in the corridor and no one warned them. I think it's related to the fact that it is preferred by young people, but the hotel management should do something about it. In short, if you want to sleep, don't stay there.

Great location, typical big city hostel amenities, but the mattress was wafer thin and the air conditioning didn’t work (mid-May). No ceiling fans either. If you open the windows you get city pollution and bugs (AND lots of street noise), and little relief from the stuffy room. I was in a 4-female room, plenty spacious— but I didn’t get a good night’s sleep. At all

Hemos estado tres noches, en general la habitación y el baño estaban limpios cuando llegamos, los días que hemos estado allí tampoco se han esmerado mucho en mantenerla. Cama un poco incómoda. Mucho ruido por las noches de gente que llegaba de la calle. Personal de recepción amables.
