We booked the private room which was in fact an immaculate flat with a view of St. Steven's Basilica in the heart of the city! If you, like us, enjoy walking- it's super easy to get around. Other than that, Taxi's, shuttles, and other public transportation are readily available. The staff was friendly and kept in touch beforehand and during via email, without being obtrusive at all. I could not believe the accommodations and what a value! (Off season=great price). If you're social and more bent to the hostel life, then staying on the premises would be fine too. It's right around the corner from the apartments, but we were so pleased we booked the private rooms. If you do too, you won't be disappointed. Highly recommend.

The rooms were lovely (and warm for winter!), with comfy beds, a warm shower and fully stocked kitchen. Pal's is located right next to the Basilica, with bars/restaurants just around the corner and the Danube down the street! You couldn't ask for a better location. Staff is very helpful too. One thing I want to note - I stayed my first night solo and was put in a separate building. I arrived at night, and did not see a single person in that building on any of the floors as I came in - the room was a large apartment with 4 separate rooms and a kitchen & bathroom. As a solo female traveller, I didn't feel 100% safe staying in this building alone, especially since I'd have to go down the street and up the stairs again to reception if I needed help. Therefore, I wouldn't recommend this place for solo travel as I feel safer knowing there are other people nearby. But overall, the benefits outweigh this minor blip and I would stay here again with friends! Thanks Pal for the great time! read less

I still can't believe that I slept in the heart of the city for virtually no money and somehow I managed to end up in a stunning, spacious and really clean apartment, big enough to play some football actually. Not to mention the four meters high ceilings and the enormous windows that secured plenty of natural light even though most of the time the weather was cloudy. Pretty decent wi-fi connection. Ultimately, the girls that checked us in/out were very friendly and helpful. They gave us some umbrellas the first day (free of charge for the hostel's guests). The black and white doggy was the most friendly employer though :) Some 5 star hotels can learn a lot about hotel management from Pal's staff. Hope to see you soon! :) read less
