a&t Holiday Hostel (Vienna, Austria)

Many guests liked the fact that buses and other forms of public transportation are within walking distance of the hostel. That makes travel around the area easy, even if you don't have your own car.

Most guests were quick to point out that the hotel staff keeps every room very clean, including the bathrooms and common areas. Many guests also commented that their fresh bedding, which is included in the room cost, was provided to them still sealed in plastic, ensuring cleanliness.

Many guests said that they were pleasantly surprised by the fact that shower gel, toilet paper, soap, and some other toiletries are provided at the hostel. So, you don't have to worry about bringing your own basic toiletries with you when you stay there.

One of the biggest complaints that guests have about this hostel is that there is no air conditioning. That can be a major problem in the middle of summer, especially in the dormitory-style rooms where multiple people are sharing a relatively small space.

Many guests disliked the fact that deposits are required for any items taken from the front desk, including extra room cards, hairdryers, and irons.

Many guests said that the rooms they booked and the rooms they were assigned were very different. Specifically, several people booking all female rooms wound up in rooms that also had males. Some guests also reported that the hostel double booked their beds and asked them to change beds or rooms in the middle of their stays.
