Very close to train station. It is a okay hostel - nothing great, nothing terrible. I wish toilets and showers looked different but still everythin worked like it should. Would be great to have some shelves in the room for each bed

It's nice and clean very nice staff as well cheap and not really bad in anyway as well as it was like 30 seconds away from the subway too, the only sad thing was that the restrooms was a little cramped and changing clothes was awkward anywhere but it still worked and was fine

I recently had the opportunity to stay at Pauli’s Hostel, and I found it to be a budget-friendly option that offered good value for the price. The staff at the front desk were friendly and quite helpful throughout my stay, which I appreciated.During my visit, I encountered no major issues, and the overall experience was satisfactory. While the amenities may not be luxurious, they met my basic needs, and the cost-effectiveness of the accommodation made it a worthwhile choice for travelers on a budget.

Mandatory +5 euros for bed sheets which is mentioned as optional. The hostel is full of weird, brain dead zombies who are drunk and talk to themself at night. Not safe at all.

I had a great time in this hostel! The staff, although a bit disorganised, were all very nice, sociable and helpful. They only have four toilets and four showers, which doesn’t seem like many, for the amount of people that can sleep there, but, to be honest, me and my friends didn’t have any problem with it - i never had to wait to go and do my stuff!They have a big kitchen, where you can serve yourself to a (free) coffee or tea, as well as cook your own food.The rooms weren’t the best out there, but they were cozy nonetheless.One aspect that may be a downside for some people (but honestly it wasn’t for me) is that the staff is quite “intrusive” in the rooms… but i guess people aren’t expecting much privacy sleeping in a dorm in a hostel!Also, they don’t have enough lockers for everyone; but, again, i didn’t have a problem with it.You can also use their washing machine and dryer, for clothes for 10€ (to wash and dry!), which is def a plus!The hostel is not in the centre, but you have a metro station 2 min away… so it shouldn’t be an issue!In sum, i enjoyed my stay here; but i think that if you are looking to rest and be at peace, this isn’t the place (even though i was treated very well!)

I have got the worse experience in Pauli hostel.The room was not clean. The beds are very old and hard to sleep on. The floor was dirty and never got cleaned during our stay. The worse is that the hostel was in a basement and there was no ventilation at all. So the main smell in the hostel was heavy and strong. The kitchen was dirty and there was basically no reception where we could sit and rest. Two chairs inside and that was all. At some point we were just looking forward to get out to get some air. The nights were the big nightmare. 12 persons sleeping in the same room without ventilation and with closed windows, no instructions or closets to leave shoes outside so I let you imagine the smell inside. Two shower for more than 60 travelers counting rooms and beds which non of them was clean.The price was neither cheap if you add the extra costs of bedsheets and towels compared to other much better hostels in the city.I really do not recommend it to any of you reading this comment. During many years of traveling and backpacking . This one was the worse.

Mitigated stay in september: the beds were fine and comfortable but noisy and shaking, the kitchen big and tidy, the travellers nice. However, you have to factor in the mandatory 5€ for the sheets (you can't bring yours + you have to make your bed) and the fact that you have to pay 5€ when you arrive between 9pm-10pm and 10€ until 12pm (which is not said on the website but they won't admit it and will make you pay). Moreover, the "separated showers" are two cubicles per gender in a same room (not that much for the many travellers), made of transparent glass (but you could lock the door and shower alone). Plus, the toilets are very very small, a broken panel of shower makes it difficult to get in, some beds come without any power plug, the shared plugs charge really slowly and it is not so clean. I would not recommend it for the price.
