Prachtig decor, warme ontvangst
Ons verblijf in het Train Hostel was fantastisch! Het hostel is prachtig ingericht en het thema is bijzonder mooi uitgewerkt. Er zijn enorm veel verschillende opties voor verschillende soorten kamers, dus er is voor elk wat wils. Een bijzonder warme ontvangst en erg schone kamers.

Really cool place full of train history and kitsch
The hostel is a really cool place; I wish we had stayed longer to explore it more. The breakfast was lovely; the neighborhood interesting but a bit sketchy.

Un voyage au pays des songes...
Une immersion dans le monde des trains qui fait de cet hôtel un lieu vraiment atypique et original. Le personnel est top! manque quand même la climatisation même si il y a un ventilateur disponible.

Buena ubicación a una cuadra y media del metro. Precio elevado vs calidad. Habitación con mantencion deficiente. El desayuno, un desastre, solo tienen lo mínimo, incluso menos (sin mantequilla).

設備は給水器があるだけで、ポットなどはありませんでした。 Wi-fiも少し弱めで、共有スペースなら問題ないですが自分の部屋でインスタなどを見る時はちょっと大変でした。 とにかく安く泊まりたい方にはおすすめです。

Best avoided
Extremely rude staff who treat you like you're a criminal before you've even said a word, dark rooms with wafer-thin, uncomfortable bedding, sewer smell coming from the bathroom... The train theme is unfortunately not fun enough to make up for the shortcomings of this hotel. Nice restaurant though, with friendly staff who seem just as confused as the guests by the behaviour of the hotel management team.

長期滞在の人で自炊をしたい人はキッチンがないのでおすすめできません。お湯を沸かすものやフォークやスプーンもないので、完全に外食になると思います。

ドミトリーは三段で中段と上段は特に狭く感じます。さらにハシゴで登るのですが、難しいです。また、時間帯によるのか夜はwifi がかなり繋がりにくいです。コンセントは各ベットにあるわけではなかったので、あるといいと思います。さらに私が利用させていただいた部屋の他の人が友人を朝早くから連れてきて、洗面台で化粧をしていて困りました。
