Lovely clean hostel, nice common area and great service. Located conveniently close to the main train station but the area itself was a bit dangerous, a lot of homeless and addicts on the street. Good price for a private room.

There were Ukrainian refugees but that’s not the part that I don’t like about the property. The refugees were rude to me and acted as if they own the place especially when i was using the kitchen together with them. I felt as if i came to their house uninvited and started cooking. I’m sorry about what’s happening to their country and it’s nice of the hostel to accommodate them, but you can never change one’s attitude when it comes to people.

It was a very pleasent experience. I was positively surprised when they told me that they give us free food for dinner and breakfast. Very professional place and seemly good organized. In the downsides I would say though it’s next to the central station and good located to most of the places to visit in Frankfurt, the neighborhood is a bit shade, though not unsafe. It was a very good value for money and a nice experience.

This hostel was overall great. The staff was very nice, rooms and bathrooms were kept clean, and the atmosphere was great for meeting other travelers. The hostel is close to the train station and the old town. However, it was in the heart of the red light district which is a disgusting area. Although we were never bothered, there are very unwell drug addicts all over and creepy men lurking outside of the sex stores and strip clubs. It is also noisy all night every night so bring ear plugs.

Most you guys have A/C I couldn’t stay the last night i had to book other place because of the A/C when i was on the bed in night i was sweating all over because of the heat. Also the location was a bit noisy and not pleasant to see when i was walking around because of the people on the street but it safe.

Un ambient molt agradable, acolliment i facilitat de comunicació amb els joves hostes i amb el personal del hotel. Molt ben situat per visitar la ciutat. Sopars que fan i migrants Ucraïnesos, això ja demostra el paper que fa aquest hostel al barri.
Descobrir que a Alemanya hi ha persones denostades per la societat que campen pel seu compte amb l'efecte de drogues, van descalços pel carrer i semblen zombis. No ens han increpat en cap moment i el Hostel compensa però et fas conscient que la societat els ha expulsat i no tenen ajudes.

Worst hostel I’ve ever stayed at: staff are nice but everything else is bad - In a red light district with prostitution and junkies everywhere - Extremely loud music, shouting and sirens from street til 5am making it impossible to sleep - Window broken and wouldn’t shut - Bed bugs - No AC - Showers have curtains not doors meaning anyone can open it and come in - Creaky beds Even walking through this area in the day there are junkies lining the streets making it feel very unsafe

Felt safe in the hostel but be careful if you are a solo traveller. I didn’t leave the hostel after 5pm as there were so many homeless shooting each other up. The actual hostel was nice and the atmosphere was good. Free dinner was an absolute bonus

Thankfully, I only planned to stay 1 night there. The location is awful, it is swarmed by junkies 24 hours a day making it uncomfortable to leave the hostel, especially at night. In the hostels' description, it is mentioned that it is in the red-light district (which is not an issue personally) but it also says that the area is really safe, which is a blatant lie. You can only enter if they buzz you in instead of a key card. They also charged a questionable 1€ fee when paying by card at the bar.

The hostel itself is great. Nice atmosphere and good facilities.
Location is a bit sketchy. They do message to warn that it's in the red light district but I didnt anticipate the street to be full of people on all sorts of drugs. There was blood, needles and broken glass everywhere and intoxicated people laying on the ground. Not the most pleasant place to walk through, especially alone.

Liegt nicht weit vom Bahnhof entfernt.
Sehr laut die ganze Nacht auf der Straße, bis in den Morgen hinein. Wer gerne eine ruhige Nacht verbringen möchte, sollte hier nicht buchen.

Es befindet sich in der Nähe des Hauptbahnhofs. Aber die Straße ist erschreckend, besonders für Familien mit Kindern. Wo sind drogenkonsumenten. Und meine Erfahrung war schlecht, da wir die ganze Nacht nicht schlafen konnten, weil die Disco nebenan und die ganze Nacht Betrunkene schreien und wenn die Fenster geschlossen sind, wird der Raum wie eine Sauna. Ansonsten war der Service gut und sehr freundlich
Es gibt keine Ventilatoren oder Klimaanlagen. Die Lage des Hotels neben der Disco ist für Kunden sehr unangenehm. Es gibt keine Ventilatoren oder Klimaanlagen. Die Lage des Hotels neben der Disco ist für Kunden sehr unangenehm

The hostel is OK, but the area looks like a zombie movie if you know what I mean.

A welcoming hostel with lots of facilities available, free breakfast as well! We enjoyed the warm hospitality of the staff, the rooms were clean and the lockers were a great size. We could fit both of our backpacks into one locker. The location is a little worrying at night, so take care when walking to and from the hostel. It’s a few minutes walk until you’re in the more pleasant areas. Thank you for your hospitality Five Elements!

La atención excelente , las instalaciones también las camas muy cómodas , la terracita me encantó para relajarme después de pasear todo el día me apetecía relajarme y fue ideal hicieron una barbacoa muy bien de precio y con una copa que justamente había 2x1 lo aproveché
La zona es un poco candente , obviamente por la zona de Frankfurt donde está ubicada , pero al menos está a dos calles de la estación central que es ideal para ir al aeropuerto, no me afectó tanto por que pase el día paseando, para dormir está bien, el precio más que asequible.

This hostel is in the worst area in Franfurt if you are a women do not stay here! There are crackheads, homeless people and prostitution right outside and this hostel has not been renovated in years. There is one shower on the floor for over 6 girls to share do not stay here! Had to leave after 1 night because I felt extremely unsafe

We probably got bed bugs from this place, my husband was covered in rashes the next day, and I now got some buttons as well. The neighborhood is also the worst Frankfurt can offer unfortunately. I wouldn’t recommend staying here again!

good social vibe with lots of games and social activities available and good food/ drinks.
the location itself was good however the area was very dodgy
