The staff was very helpful and nice. Rooms are cleaned daily, even dust on top of the wardrobes ✨ Towels available for 1€ a piece. Not all rooms have hair dryers, but for 10€ deposit you can borrow one from reception which is nice as you get it all back upon returning. You can also borrow for 10€ deposit lock for the wardrobe (contains shelves, so the big suitcase doesn't fit in, in case you are curious). Nice breakfasts too (I had the same selection available every day: toast bread, nice buns, ham, cheese, toaster machine, jam, butter, bell pepper, cucumber, hummus, porridge, fruit compote, yoghurt and granola, coffee machine (oat milk available too), tea selection, (no eggs or sausages though, but understandable for the price)... Overall, I liked it here and would come here again (for the WGT festival). Good price, nice location, I recommend (I stayed at only-woman shared room for 6 occupants for 5 nights).

It's nice, that it's located in the city centre, but the street is quite noisy if your roommates need to keep windows open all the time (not complaining, because it's not a hostel problem, but just note for those with light sleep - you might need to bring some ear plugs or have windows closed). Room cards tend not to work quite often for unlocking rooms, but staff will quickly reprogram them for you (happened to me twice). There wasn't any kettle, cups, fridge or microwave (at least I didn't find any), but you can get hot water from the staff. If you get a top bunk bed, you will need a longer charger cable as outlets are just down.

I've stayed at Wombat hostels before and found them great. This is the chains latest acquisition and seems to be still converting/rebranding. It was very, very quiet. I was there for three nights and I was the only one in the bar/cafe The cafe didn't serve food or snacks - maybe they will in future. The gust kitchen has just been refitted and the 'bar' is new. Dorm (4 bed ensuite) was clean and spacious but power points for phones were a problem and the bunk lights were at the foot end of the wooden bunks... The breakfasts were OK but expensive for the quantity available and the limited choice.

-perfect location close to the city center and central train station. There are plenty of restaurants and grocery stores nearby, as well as a mall and all kinds of public transport. -the room is great. Beautiful, clean, big, beds are comfortable, convenient lockers and coat hangers. The heating works perfectly. -there’s a shared kitchenette downstairs, it isn’t much but it’s nice to be able to use a fridge. -the price is fair.

-the elevator shakes really bad. Didn’t have any problems with it besides that, it works fine, but it’s kinda scary. -there was a little mold in the shower but nothing terrible. -the noise from the street gets loud, even with the windows closed, but it didn’t bother me much thankfully. -not very social if that’s what you’re looking for. There aren’t really any common spaces. -the pillows aren’t very comfortable and the floors are creaky, but again it’s nothing that bad. -one staff member was unpleasant and made me feel uncomfortable. Everybody else was very nice though.

Good location, lovely place to stay:)

We book one more extra night, came to reception to ask if everything is all right and they said it’s okay we see your new booking you don’t need to do anything. And turns out all of our entrance cards stoped working and we need to renew them in the middle of the night so it’s good that one of us stayed at the hostel and let us in because there was no one at the reception :) just a misunderstanding.

clean facilities nice staff, always open for questions good location, 13min by foot from train station, a couple of minutes from tram stations big rooms, nice seating area and good view clean bathroom, enough space overall I'm satisfied with my stay! :)

wifi was a bit slow at times, but overall good not all beds had a socket that was reachable while in bed, but nearby so it was manageable curtains were thin, so it was really bright in the morning no bedlight sadly

Location and cleanliness of the room

There is no where mentioned on the website that we cannot extend our stay more than 7 days. I had some work and requested for another 5 days but was denied as it's been a week of my stay already. When the rooms are not occupied, I do not see why we cannot extend the stay more than a week. Also, I am a frequent visitor here. I am disappointed.

Very good value hostel. Friendly staff, praise to Valentina and Paulina 🙂. Beds from wood, clean sheets, comfortable pillow. Lockers in the room with sufficient storage space. Stools and table also present in the room itself. Spacious and clean bathroom. There's elevator in this hostel.

Some shady behavior from some of the guests, but that's not fault of the staff or the property.

Location was within walking distance to the train station and many attractions. The room was clean and the bed was comfortable.

The only issue was in the breakfast room. There were many guests who had been before us and the tables were not cleaned and I couldn't find anything to wipe the tables myself. The food was good with a typical European cold breakfast.

I stayed here with my four and six year old children on our first visit to Leipzig and the zoo. My children and I were happy with the room and the friendly staff. It's very close to the main train station and the zoo (walking distance)! I recommend this hostel if you're traveling with children.

Amazing location close to old town and to the central station (hauptbahnhof). Great helpful staff, helped me with an issue I had in the city unrelated to the stay itself.

There wasn't a comfortable electricity next to the bed, you had to move some things or charge your phone in the bathroom, kinda weird.
