    The accommodation has its character and nice as a hostel, but could be much cleaner, with all the rubbish emptied from the bins and yard. I saw 2 cockroaches in the room. It is slightly away from Vienna, but we used P&R and it was fine.

    Free on street parking, possibility to use a washing machine and a dryer, good size bedroom with good wardrobe, kitchen availability.

    We were welcomed very warmly by the host, no problem in communication, our room was clean beautiful and bed was very good. there was free parking directly in front of house. Billa was just 2minutes walk. we got everything what we expected and for short stay it’s perfect to stay

    Outside the house has very sketchy, almost abandoned look, but the inside is still very welcoming

    The place is clean and although it's really old-school looks cozy and comfortable.

    However, this property is few kilometres away from Vienna city, you will have to buy separate ticket. If you have a day ticket, it only valid for Vienna city. Secondly, if you plan to stay for a week, I won't recommend but good for one or two night stay. Again, the host was kind and nice person and I definitely would like to go back because of his kind act.

    Staff was nice, helpful and friendly. I mistakenly went to the next stop in the middle of night. It was 8 k.m away from the property, I contacted with the host and he took me by his car and did not even ask for money. I'm so impressed by his kindness.

    There was some smell in the room , I guess that’s because the house is old.

    The house is old and it has a certain charm. It was easy to take walks in nature from the place. The host Thomas was very helpful and welcoming. I also appreciate that the children and pets are welcome to this facility.

    The second floor was uhhhh not so clean. There were spider nets and old leaves in the shower and the tobacco smell was really strong.

    The first floor is nice, clean and cozy. The host is friendly. Lockers with keys. Just two stops with Regio train from Wien Westbahnhof. Overall a great place to stay if you travel to Vienna and want to save money.

    for those who smoke - this is not a problem, but for those who do not like the smell of smoke - I do not recommend

    good price and conditions but you could die from cigarette smoke... we were in room 4 and everything was saturated with cigarette smoke((( it was difficult to sleep, but the bed itself and the room are comfortable, also all our things now smell of smoke and even our backpacks there was good free parking near

    The location is out of town, being part of Lower Austria rather than Vienna. It's in easy reach of Vienna though, and it's quiet and green.

    The hostel is nice with a functioning kitchen, quiet rooms and the host is a nice man.

    Hostel Suburb is located in forest with amazing views, owner is so helpful and will talk ypu many informations about vienna, and it's places and culture. He liked to chat also about my country which was so warm from his side. I stayed for little money in cozy room and kitchen down was always clean as he has rule everybody needs ro clean after him. You can put your food to fridge. What was for me very good is strong shower, which I enjoyed after all day. Purkersdorf has nice sightings and forest paths. Also restaurant down center and pubs. One I visited and chat with locals which was great. I will return there 100 percent and book suburb.

    The other guests should try to keep the bathroom cleaner after using it, but that's something that has nothing to do with the place itself.

    One of best hostel stays I've had so far. It's a one big house with everything in it. The room was spacious and so neatly organized, the bed was perfection, warm, quiet, you couldn't wish for more. You can use the kitchen like in your own home, the bathroom had everything, even the washing machine. The owner is a direct and very generous person. This is a place for adventure spirited people, as it's a little off the beaten track, it takes some time to get there from the center of Vienna if you're not by car, but it rewards you with the peace and the charm it has. All in all, I'm still under the positive impression I've had of this place.

    If you are going to Vienna proper, you will need to get either a bus or a train that is not included in the normal Vienna pass. The travel time to the city is also over an hour.

    The hostel is cozy, the lower rooms have a grandmother's house feel. The owner is amiable and shows his effort to improve the building and keep it in a good running order. The rooms were decently maintained, the common areas were lush and trimming with life and the appliances worked perfectly. The area around is filled with beautiful forests where you can walk and at the same time has plenty of supermarkets around to provision yourself. This is one of the few hostels that offer a queen size bed in a private room.

    A Really Nice, Chill Hostel

    Too many older men smoking in their dorm rooms. 45 minutes to an hour from city center by public transit, which can limit how much sight seeing you can get done each day.

    The friendliest, most helpful, chillest hostel manager I've had on this trip, over 15 months of travel. 420 friendly, which was a big plus. A 10-20 minute walk to a restaurant and some public transit. Two kitchens. Decent bathrooms, hot shower. A game room. A musical keyboard, which was a huge plus for me!!
