Hostel Eleven

Good location and the rooms are clean. However, the bathroom could be cleaner and it's very noisy because of the bars in the street.

The mattress is uncomfortable when laying or sitting on it, very thin. Also the pillow is uncomfortable.There are no curtains which was so annoying since there are construction happening on the same building, at many points the workers has passed beside my window and can easily see what's inside.

Other than the bed being comfortable and the location being awesome, there are not many positive things I can say about this hostel. First of all, there are two buildings that are associated with Hostel Eleven. The building my friends and I were put in was nothing like the pictures on the website. The door from the street was hard to open, it was loud when it opened and closed, and it was often left slightly open, therefore the security of the place was very questionable. There were no locked drawers in the room, just little safes that everyone in the room had access to. The bathrooms were mostly clean but we did not have a shower, just a bathtub with a telephone showerhead. There was no insulation and the walls were paper-thin so we could hear everything going on above us, below us, and outside. There were also children running around at midnight. The staff were not really helpful and did not offer us towels and when we asked for them we received tiny towels the size of a bath mat. There was the smallest common area that was freezing and had a tiny kitchen but there was nowhere to get comfortable or socialize with people other than in your bedroom. There are also no all-female dorms. In the mixed room my two female friends and I stayed in, they assigned us different bunks so we were supposed to sleep above or below men we didn't know, even though we could have shared at least one bunk bed between us. This place is cheap and so you are really only paying for a squeaky bed and a good location in the city. The only reason I am putting two stars is that the location was ideal and it could have been worse, but it could have been way better.

Central location, nice staff, but... No sleep.Smooth check-in (till 10pm) and checkout (9-11, early check-out possible). Helpful staff. Very convenient location in the old town, Christmas market very very close. Relatively clean.Extremely squeaky beds.LOTS of noise from the street (bars, clubs, drunk people, cobblestone street traffic) till about 4am. The old wooden windows let most of the noise through.Smokers on stairways.No locks on bathroom / toilets.In our case noisy drunken roommate, pretty much no sleep.They state on their Booking description that there is free parking nearby in the description. There is definitely not, you need to park far away or pay.

I haven’t felt this uncomfortable in a very long time. In every room of the hostel it smells like sweat and old feet. A lot of old, scary men we’re staying in my room and made me feel very unsafe. I switched hostels because the atmosphere was completely shady. I do not recommend, especially as a woman traveling on your own.

Hostel is OK if you only plan to sleep. However, I would like to point out some issues:The room we got was smelling like someone has been smoking there for days. It was hard for me to sleep, as I am sensitive on such smells. I found cigarettes in front of the window too.I have noticed that the shared bathroom was not cleaned between our checkin and checkout (from 14:00 to next day 08:00). I cannot say bathroom was even clean. Toilets need more attention for sure.Noisewise it was ok for our trip as there were not any clubs playing loud music around (at least on Monday) but I noticed that speech from other rooms can be heard easily. It was same for the street as well, shouts of people can be easily heard.Overall, OK as its a hostel but I cannot suggest staying here more than one day. 2 stars because of location.

It was absolutely not for living. The building was under construction but they didn't tell us anything about it. Elevator didn't work, bed was extremely uncomfortable (felt every spring from mattress). Shower cabin was not clean. Location was great.

Possibly my worst experience at a hostel. The walls are paper thing and the hostel is very loud. So you hear people in other rooms, people outside, and the very loud cleaning lady in the hallway. The rooms do not have blinds so it is very difficult to sleep past the early morning. The beds are lumpy and uncomfortable and the pillows are falling apart. The common areas are small and poorly maintained so there is limited opportunity to meet other travelers.It is the cheapest place in Brno, but there is definitely a reason for that.

Great location but of course.. the noise was quite bad. I don’t mind it because I have ear plugs but in general the noise outside was a bit ridiculous. But not the hostel’s fault. The location was great.
