I liked the socialising and games that happened in the evenings! The outside roads at night seem a bit unsafe but the hostel is great.
Room felt a bit stuffy and noisy but nothing bad.

For 20 euros a night, it's worth it and given the location, they'll have to keep prices low. Although it's surrounded by homeless people/drug peddlers, once you get in the building it's all good. The place was clean, except for the Men's toilet which was clogged the night I checked in. However, by morning it was cleaned up. You need to bear in mind that it's only that one street which is messy otherwise Holiday Inn & Carlton Hotels are also in the same neighborhood. Dorm rooms are big enough and all soap & hand tissue dispensers were filled up in the toilets (which is generally not the case in dorms).
They should include the price of the bedsheets within the room price as it's not refundable. It's only 3 euros but just seems a bit odd. Showers were broken & only had half-length curtains instead of full doors.

I had read the reviews on the neigborhood but nothing could prepare me on how bad it really was. Staff weren’t very welcoming either. Overall just a depressing experience, ended up moving to another hostel without spending the night.

The Location is a little in the dark side of Frankfurt but it's not unsafe but you see the unpleasant part of Frankfurt meaning drugs and dirty streets. The room and inside the building is great and well looked after, i would even say above and beyond.
There was more things I liked than didn't like. Yes outside was dirty due to the red light district and evening druggies but city cleans the street the best they can and there are constantly police around.

The staff was nice and helpful. I didn’t realize the location is in the red light district at the time I booked it so it’s a bit dirty and there are things to watch out for. You’ll see various licit and illicit activities and may be solicited. One receptionist reassured another person that it was generally safe to go out at night. The breakfast was very nice and affordable at €7.5. They don’t take card unless you spend €15 or more though so keep that in mind.

Hostel was great, had a great community down at the cafe/bar each evening. Staff and facilities worked well. The location of the hostel was not great to walk around at night or alone, that is the only flaw. But in walking distance to downtown Frankfurt, will definitely return if in area again.

The staff forced me to change beds at 10:30 p.m because apparently a customer had reserved my bed. This is unacceptable. And a guest checked in at 2:30 a.m. and turned on the lights in the room.

Auberge plutôt propre et confortable pour le prix, personnel sympathique. Bâtiment sécurisé.
Location géographique compliquée, en plein milieu du quartier rouge, toutes les rues adjacentes sont infestées de crackheads qu’on ne peut pas éviter (de jour comme de nuit). Marcher au milieu de la route est plus confortable et éviter de rentrer tard si vous êtes seule. Nuisances sonores la nuit : cris, bagarres, musique… 2 toilettes pour 1 seul étage (1 femme/1 homme), trop peu suffisant

As says every review it’s in the middle of the red light district but it’s only one street so unless you’re a woman alone at night it’s fine. Very secure establishment people were nice. Kitchen was a little crowded but that’s okay. Only stayed one night but it was fine bathroom was clean.

I was welcomed so nicely and kindly by Chris R. He understood that I had come from far and made me feel special. Chris R is a huge asset to your hostel. Its not an easy job and to keep opening the door while attending to somebody cannot be easy. And to keep focused on what every person wants/needs/requires is to be commended.
I liked the fact that us "older" folk were put together. There were noisy guys outside but in another building. That cannot be controlled.

The sheets and pillows were all discolored. The bathrooms didn't seem to be attended to.

Hostel in a really unsafe area, sandwiched in between a strip club and a casino with people shouting outside constantly, were placed in a room with two individuals that made me and my friend feel really unsafe. Understandable why it’s non-refundable because we stayed for about an hour and checked out, the staff didn’t even question it. no young person would feel safe here especially a female

Nothing except the price.
The recepcionist was rude and even said that I can go. The location is terrible. It smelled bad in the reception and they did not let my friend stay in reception while I was checking out. The receptionist did not respect queue and he would chaotically serve the check-in guests, people at the bar and some random guys coming to ask questions. And I had to make the bed myself and take away the blankets myself.

I loved the place. I always use hostels, and Hostelworld is consistently a good deal. That said, the men's toilets, BOTH of them, were clogged my second and third days. That just wasn't pleasant. Otherwise, everything was hunky-dory.
