★★★★☆ 4.0 Bismark Duah · Mar 2025

I had a great stay at VMW hostel. The host was friendly, the rooms were clean, and the atmosphere was welcoming. The location was convenient, making it easy to explore the area. The common areas were well-maintained and perfect for socializing. Overall, a great budget-friendly option—I’d definitely stay here again!

★☆☆☆☆ 1.0 Linda Hirst · Feb 2025

The women's "dorm" was a standard, small bedroom with two bunk bed units and about 30 inches of floor space between. A woman was clearly living there with her space heater, a chair, and other stuff. She was nice but the owner should not be renting out other beds in such a small, cramped space. Stock photo attached. Picture someone living there... I couldn't walk to my bed, couldn't change clothes. The stair carpeting was disgustingly dirty and smelled rank. Refrigerators were dirty. One toilet for the entire place, men and women. I didn't stay. The owner is acting like I'm accusing the woman of being a problem and will not give me a refund. Stinky, cramped, poor customer service, just don't go there. I drove over two hours back home rather than stay. Not my first hostel, but definit

I had the worst experience in this place. Im a solo traveller and booked in a four females bedroom. And I had a girl that was already living there sleep with me! This was the creepiest thing I ever experienced. She treated the place as her own and that I’m an outsider and not welcomed! I felt extremely uncomfortable and she was staring at me all the time she even woke up in the middle of her sleep just to sit on the bed and look at me!! I was really worried about my safety. She kept the lights on 30min after the quiet hours, and I was too afraid to make her mad because she already said NO. And showed lot of aggressiveness. In the middle of the night she woke up to ask if I sprayed something when I was only sleeping!!! Although I only stayed there for seven hours, they were the worst seven

The „hostel“ is dirty (bathrooms + rooms), there were no lockers, the rooms were nasty & the beds looked like they weren’t cleaned in a long time. The common area looks bad, there are two couches you do not want to sit on and zwei camping tables (?). This is not a real hostel, but rather a dirt hole. The first thing we were asked by a guy who lives there is if we want to buy drugs. Do not book this!
