Overall I liked the hotel! Clean and great location. One thing I really wish was different was a keycard system to enter the building. Although getting buzzed in is quick, having to buzz in every single time feels a bit paternal and diminishes the sense of freedom I like to have when I travel.
I also find that although these bizarrely literally "double" beds are common in Europe, since these two are also two separate frames, the two beds drift apart, and you really do just need to sleep on the one child sized width of bed, since the other half is kinda useless. You easily fall between the two beds. If a single larger mattress isn't possible it'd be nice to at least bolt the bed frames together so they don't drift apart.
Having a bath tub is a major bonus!

I had a great stay at the Baross City hostel. It felt safe because you had to buzz in to get upstairs. It was also conveniently located next to a bus stop and metro stop. The room was super cute and just what I needed for getting some rest.

Awesome location.
The Hotel is conveniently located very close to Keleti-Budapest Train station. The room was spacious and offered a great view of the city.
The breakfast was awesome and the hotel staff were very polite and willing to help you if you have any questions or need a tour booked for you.

Great location
Nice hotel, convenient location to the train station, metro and buses to get around the city.
The room is clean, very basic, bathroom has everything you need. The breakfast is from 7 to10am every day, with decent options of food and hot or cold drinks.
The staff are very helpful, spoke English and check in was nice and smooth.
Overall nice hotel, great location, and helpful and friendly staff. I will stay here again.

Excellent value near Keleti
Extremely good value hotel near Keleti station. A bit dated, but functional - could do with a refurb, but that would put the price up! Very few sockets in room. Great breakfast included.

Dirty carpet, uncomfortable bed, no bath fan, noisy and old air conditioner. No elevator access to 6th floor. The good thing is: very close to central train station and subway station. And the reception staff is very helpful

Noisy
The accommodation was in a good spot, close to public transport and had dining options. Service was good, the main issue with the property was its noise issues and the outdated rooms. The walls are super thin and you can hear everything the inconsiderate people were saying at 11pm at night, not a complete fault to the property as its old and very dated. This factor alone contributes to a negative experience.
