Comfy beds, good showers, location, good sized locker storage (bring ur own lock)

It is definitely old and worn down on the outside and also in the female only dorm the curtain situation by my bed left a lot to be desired. The room also never locked—I didn’t use my key a single time. Very loud.

Is a great social hostel, if that is what you are looking for. There are activities each night of you wish to partake an guest tend to get her in the lounge area around happy hour at 7-9pm. Good, central location for old town. I was in a private room, which was small but did the job.

There is now an age restriction on this hostel, which I am too old for. I think this is a shame as people over 40 still like to be sociable sometimes. You just need to be aware what kind of hostel you are booking

Hostel has a great location, it's close to everything. There's a bar and common area with kitchen downstairs and I think there are some events going on sometimes so it's good for socialising. The staff was very nice. Kitchen is well equipped. In female dorm there's also a balcony. I liked the vibe of the hostel in general, even though it's not modern and new.

The building is old, there's a lot of stairs up and down to carry your suitcase. In female dorm one of the lockers was broken, and it would be good to have some more shelves in the showers. And walls are thin so you can hear people from other rooms sometimes :)

1. 24/7 checkin. The staff guys were so friendly and nice. Showed me around everything that I’ll need, even if I was only 1 night. 2. The facilities were good, kept good and clean, which is very important for me. 3. The room for girls was spacious, so it didn’t have like bad smell or smth. 4. They have also bar in reception area, maybe someone would be interested. I wasn’t, bcs arrived tired. But it’s good place to have beer, talking to other people there and spend some time. 5. The showers were also good, clean, without bad smells and other inconvenience.

1. No thing I’m particular. Everything was quite fine. I stayed there only 1 night so it was good.

Very friendly and casual staff. They were extremely helpful throughout my stay, and great to have a chat with. Reception area is also a bar/pub that works 24/7. Each room has a key so helps unwanted people stay out. Beds were not squeaky so it was perfect for me when coming and going at early hours. The overall vibe about this place is quite hip and you will meet great people from all around the world here. They organize group events every evening that you are welcome to participate in. For the price I paid and the experience I had, I would say it’s an extremely great value for money, and I would definitely return again!

Nothing :).

The place is amazing. Staff is really friendly and helpful. It is a very social hostel with plenty of activities, decent sized rooms and great atmosphere. It is quite clean, with a few exceptions. Bed was very comfortable. Kitchen well equipped. They have hair dryers, lockers and laundry service, although I found laundry service quite expensive compared to other hostels I've been to. They have a bar.

The place looks rough. Temperature all around is a bit low to my liking. At times, they can be a bit stiff about rules, when it comes to each night's activity. Some benches or chairs would be really helpful in the bathroom, especially in the showers.

The host and stuff were really welcoming and chatty, I liked the feeling that I was their guest. Also all of the guests were young and communicative, but respectful of personal space.

That there were no locks on the personal boxes, you had to apparently bring your own, and I didn’t know about it

This was a very magical place to stay. I was transported back in time when I walked through to the courtyard and into the main reception and bar area. Everyone was very nice and helpful. They kept everything clean and tidy. The room was spacious and not over crowded at all. We even had a balcony in the all ladies room. There were many areas where a person could sit and read or hang out with other travellers. The location was perfect as it was close to everything without being in a noisy part of Old Town.

The kitchen was a bit on the small side with this big of a hostel, but not a big deal at all. The staff tried to keep it clean and it was most of the time.

I loved everything about this hostel!! It was very sociable, the common area was a great place to meet people. Beds were very comfortable with soft mattress toppers on and warm bedding. Fantastic location in Old Town Tallinn, with shops and public transport near by. I'd definitely stay again!

Just a note, the hostel is called Lai 22 not Old Town Alur- this is important as it was quite tricky to find on Google. It would be good if the name was changed online to match! Maybe curtains around the beds would be a nice touch for privacy and to keep out the light in the hall when people are in and out at night.

Cozy atmosphere, Extra security options for luggage - ask receptionist, Each evening you have entertainment - pong game, movie night (and other), Kitchen and kitchenware, Comfortable enough beds (mattress)

Low ceilings, if you're higher 180 cm - then watch your head, Steep stairs (one spiral), and there are unavoidable No air conditioner - so at night it might get little bit hotter
