    It’s a glorified 14 bed room, with one shower and one toilet. In the 6 bed you have to walk through the 8 bed room to get to the door or bathroom. Bunk beds were so wiggly and felt like they’d break. Bathrooms were dirty the whole time we were there. The shower was in the 6 bed room so you have 8 other people constantly walking into your room. Maybe not bed bugs but there was definitely some sort of bug that bit me I have 10s of bites. Only saving grace is the location. it smelt and no air flow.

    Overall the hostel was alright. Around 14 people share one toilet and one toilet, which is a little tight but manageable. The staff was nice, but on the second evening of our stay we found bedbugs. It’s not the hostel’s fault that the bugs came, but apparently they were already discovered in the morning and we weren’t told, which is not okay. We had to find a new place to stay. Fortunately our last night was refunded, but the situation should still have been handled differently.

    I got bed bugs at this hostel!! Since I'm not the first to report this in the reviews, it seems to be a long-standing problem at the hostel, which makes the situation even worse. I recommend to you: don’t book this hostel.

  5. Confirmed Hostelworld

    Only one toilet and one shower for 18 people. A dorm of 6 and a dorm of 8 are really a dorm of 14 if guests must routinely pass through each room to use the shower or to leave. The staff were rarely available. The washer and dryer were rarely available (due to the hostel sheets being washed). Finally, on our last day we found a bed bug in one of the beds.

    This hostel clearly has an ongoing bedbug issue that they do not want to deal with. We stayed one night before having to leave due to bedbugs being found in bunks and in people’s clothes. This hostel should close and deal with their cleanliness issues before other unsuspecting guests end up in the same situation. Do not stay here. I will say the staff were helpful enough to refund 2 nights of our stay.

    Nice spacious dorm space, very orderly, however one roommate got bedbug bites.

  8. Confirmed Hostelworld

    We decided to stay at this hostel, as it seemed nice enough. The very first evening, a roommate found bedbugs in her bunk and we had to leave and stay at a hotel instead. While the hostel cancelled the next night of our stay, they would not budge on charging us for the night that we had to leave due to them having a bedbugs infestation. When I expressed doubt that they took the situation seriously , they accused me of blackmail... An overall terrible experience. Do not recommend.

    I have never been that surprisingly disappointed in a hostel. The layout is just plainly stupid as the ONE shower room makes you cross both dorms. Also only one toilet for the whole hostel. They also let couples sleep in one bed and thus kind of forced the dorm to be the common room as well. Didn't find bedbugs, but read about it from others. Also the staff is only available on person ~2h a day. Shame, because actually I liked the cozy and personal style. Would not recommend more than one night

    Go for it! It is a very chill place! I was worried about sharing the bathroom with 16 people but to my surprise it works out really well! The facilities and staff are great. Although there was a concern about bed bugs but the staff was very active about the situation and sorted it out.

    bed bug alert.

  12. Confirmed Hostelworld

    Pretty much your standard, small hostel (only two dorms, no common area, layout and only one toilet and shower). But, I got bedbugs. To be fair, this can happen in any hotel/hostel, and the manager/owner(?) did get me antihistamine cream first thing in the morning and seemed proactive about dealing with the bedding, etc, but there are several recent reviews mentioning bedbugs that the hostel says are fake and/or the situation is under control. Maybe it will be, but as of last night, it's not.

  13. Confirmed Hostelworld

    *BEDBUG ALERT* This hostel has a bedbug problem and I feel like it is not being handled properly. At first signs the owner tried to brush away the problem saying reviews were lying about the bedbugs. Then I actually saw one in a trap and decided to get out as soon as I could. The owner did give me a refund, but also wrote to me in a mail that "it was not appropriate of me to warn the other guests" and that "it is not such a big issue". Very unprofessional. Don't go. Stay away.

  14. Confirmed Hostelworld

    I woke up with over 30 different bed bug bites. I read reviews about the bed bugs but the hostel kept saying it wasn’t an issue, and most of those reviews were old, but the bed bugs are an issue and it’s honestly pretty disgusting, and painful. I have bites all over my neck, my arms and my legs.

  15. Confirmed Hostelworld

    Noticed bedbugs in the room in the morning, when I told reception in the morning they did not even act surprised. They were nice enough to give me a refund, but did not make a fuss about it so I could tell they knew about them. Other than that this hostel has a nice location and good vibes.

  16. Confirmed Hostelworld

    We were having a perfectly fine time at the Fluxus Hostel until the final morning when we woke up to discover bed bugs on the items we stored under our bed. When we rang the owner and asked for compensation to wash all of our belongings we were accused of lying and were granted the bare minimum only because we put up a fight. To make it worse the staff were already aware that they had bed bugs as a receptionist had spoken to us about them the previous morning. fine hostel but not worth it at all

    Staff is very nice, but the place is very dirty, there are ants all over the kitchen table, the beds are not clean at all, I got 20 bed bug bites, they were very itchy and some of them got infected and I ended up going to urgent care. My friend who stayed there also got bed bug bites. They need to wash all the sheets and blankets in hot boiling water, they need to get rid of those mattresses, and they need to do a deep cleaning and empty that facility.
