The staff were exceptionally welcoming and friendly. Nurick was particularly helpful. Great location near tourist attractions. Many opportunities to meet and socialize with other travelers.
Can honestly say there wasn't anything not to like.

Nothing it is perfect.

Met some interesting characters, and the staff pretended to care about my needs.
It's so exciting not knowing if I'll have a bed or be kicked to the couch. Adds to the adventurous atmosphere.

We had an amazing stay at Wanderlust Hostel. the staff was friendly and helpful, and the hostel itself was comfortable and clean. the location couldn't have been better - just a short walk away from the park, Staray ploshad', club's street, and a supermarket. the hostel offered great amenities including ping-pong, an open terrace for socializing, free lockers, and a hot shower. the fast WiFi was a bonus. We would definitely come back and stay here again. Cons: Everything is just what we needed and wanted! 😊.

The hostel has a great location, close to the market and nightlife, making it convenient for exploring the city. the staff is helpful and friendly, creating a sociable atmosphere. the modern downstairs bathrooms are clean and the kitchen area is well-equipped. Guests can relax in the patio and there is a convenient and cheap laundry facility.
The kitchen can sometimes be messy, and the hostel could benefit from renovation and new furniture.

During our stay at Wanderlust, we were pleasantly surprised by the great location and comfortable beds. The terrace provided a wonderful space to relax and enjoy the atmosphere. Despite some minor inconveniences like shared bathrooms, the overall cleanliness was satisfactory. The staff, particularly the female members, were friendly and helpful. We also had the chance to meet and interact with fellow travelers from around the world, creating a unique and enjoyable experience. we would recommend Wanderlust for solo or small group travelers looking for a budget-friendly and vibrant hostel.

For the value we paid, our stay at Wanderlust was absolutely worth it. The room was spacious and the bed was super comfortable. The location was perfect, right in the center of the old city and next to a beautiful park. The staff, especially Cassya, were incredibly friendly and helpful - they made us feel like new friends!
One thing that could make the morning meal better is more variety in the breakfast options.

More breakfast choices would have been appreciated.

I absolutely loved the social atmosphere at the hostel! It was so easy to meet and hang out with other travelers. And the location couldn't have been better - right in the center, making it super convenient to explore the city. Plus, the co-owner was really cool and gave great recommendations on things to do and see in the area.
The dorm room I was in was quite noisy, with windows facing a common area where people would gather and play guitar late into the night. the facilities could also use some improvement - the toilets weren't always clean and the shower on the first floor couldn't be locked.

The shared kitchen at this property is like a culinary adventure waiting to happen. I tried my hand at cooking and felt like a master chef in a cooking show! One of the rooms I stayed in had a seating area that was so cozy and comfortable, it felt like sinking into a cloud of relaxation.
Soundproofing could be improved.

I got incredible value for my money at this hostel. The room was clean, cozy, and felt like home. The location was perfect, right in the center of town. But the best part was the staff, who treated me with such warmth and hospitality.
The breakfast experience could have been better with more variety.
