We stayed in 401 which is a very large private room. We lived everything about the room and the stay. The hostel is perfectly located for walking to all the old town sites. Weâll stay again.
Leider ist es sehr laut da vor dem Hostel sich viele obdachlose mit Hunden aufhalten.
Der Geruch im Hostel ist auch unangenehm.
Das Bett ist bequem

We had a great stay in a family room. When we closed the window it was completely quiet with no noise getting in from the square. Staff were very helpful. The breakfast option was excellent. The location was perfect for walking about the beautiful city. Highly recommend.
This did not seem like a hostel. It was amazing. we had a private room. Location cannot be beat. Amazing cafe and area to hang out downstairs. super quiet. On a famous square in an old church.

Cute, clean, centrally located hostel!
Amazing hostel! Cute, clean and perfectly located on StCatherine street (longest pedestrian only street!! Lots of shopping!). All the facilities were in great condition and updated. As a solo traveler it could have been a little bit more socially oriented, but that is being super picky! Would recommend!
Das Personal war freundlich und auch sehr zuvorkommend, sie haben einem alles erklÀrt. Die angeschlossene Bar und Restaurant war gut besucht und auch eine gute Auswahl an Essen/GetrÀnken. Das Gemeinschaftsbad war groà und die Duschkabinen, eigentlich DuschrÀume waren sehr groà sogar mit extra Spiegel und Schrank ausgestattet, davor gab es nochmal einen kleinen Raum mit Waschbecken. Tolle Unterkunft! (:

Location location location!
I loved my stay at the Central Hostel. The staff were super nice and helpful and the location is truly central and very walkable.
I stayed in a 8 bed mixed dorm for the first time and the blackout blinds were a gamechanger for me. Other than a microwave there's no kitchen but there're an Aldi and Carrefour nearby which is super helpful.
The washrooms and the showers weren't the cleanest and it didn't feel like they were being cleaned daily but it's a hostel after all.
If I'd ever go back to Bordeaux, I'll definitely stay here but would book a female dorm instead.
Merciii :>

Unfortunately, the hostel does not have control of its surroundings. At the time of my stay, there were some unhoused people with dogs. And at night they would bark. ( the dogs not the people )
But in no insistence did I feel unsafe. The area is very centrical and walking distance to most attraction.
Highly recommend.

En verano te mueres de calor
La habitaciĂłn estaba bien pero no habĂa aire acondicionado y encima la ventana no se podĂa abrir del todo. No pudimos dormir por el calor que hacĂa en la habitaciĂłn.
