Liked: The property was spotless! Kitchen, common areas, and bathrooms were so clean. The massive flat screen TV was awesome.

Disliked: It is a slight walk from the Old Town and next to a strip club. Luckily I stayed early in the week and didn't hear any music.

Liked: I really liked this place. The room was really cool...I loved how the beds were "Japanese style" AKA you had like your own boxed in bed, which was really comfortable and blocked out the sound and light. The bathroom had plenty of showers, the living room had a big screen TV and three laptops for common use. The owner was super friendly as well. I would definitely recommend this place!

Liked: The staff was very helpful and kind; when we arrived, the guy at the reception gave us very very useful informations about what to visit, about prices and he helped us planning how to spend our time in Tallinn considering our finances and the avalaible time we had. He also gave us useful tips about pubs and clubs for the night we spent there :) In general, even if a bit small, the toilets were quite clean and the hostel itself wasn't difficult to be reached, and it's such in a good position if you want to visit both the old town and other places because it's almost halfway from different things (it's just out of the old town).

Disliked: I would have liked a bit more of organization for the check in: we were a group of 8 friends, and it took us more than half an hour to check in everyone! and when we arrived, the guy told us that he wasn't sure of having received all of our bookings - but luckily he had (even if he made us have a kind of heart attack for five minutes); but the friendliness and helpfulness of the staff compensed it. Well, another thing I didn't like too much was that the breakfast isn't included, and even if the price wasn't too high I think it should have been included (price was low because Estonia is cheap, not because the hostel is very much I think :D). Another thing: we arrived when the tourist informations point was already closed, so we were hoping there would have been enough material about Tallinn in the hostel, but there were more guides about Berlin and Australia than about Tallinn...but the guy at the reception compensated this lack very well giving us useful informations. In general, I think it was a good place to stay.

Liked: The staff at this property were excellent with great advice about the town, helpful in organising day trips and just having a general conversation. Really nice facilities such as the kitchen and common room. Beds were comfortable, each with an electric blanket - necessary in the Estonian winter!

Disliked: As I was visiting in the most quiet time of year the hostel was basically empty and not great for meeting people - though Tallinn itself is basically dead in mid December.
