So I needed a place to stay in Frankfurt just for one night before flying out the next day. And this one is right across from Frankfurt Main, so it's perfect to get to: Just head across from the main entrance and look to the right of the yellow-awning chicken place. But beware (or maybe prepare?) for all the sex shops, b/c you're in the red light district. Inside the hostel, it was 25 euro for no atmosphere, a disgusting room with foam mattress, everything looked about 25 years old, the curtain was just a thin piece of fabric right off the bolt, this glaring red neon sign shone through it all night, the bathroom had a *terrible* smell that makes my stomach turn just thinking about it. I can't imagine staying here to take English classes; I would shoot myself. But on the positive side (if there is one) the reception was friendly, EasyInternet is literally on the floor above and *really* cheap, my room was just three beds, own bathroom and a TV (so good size) and I honestly couldn't beat the location to public transport. However, if I were to stay in Frankfurt for more than one night, I would DEFINITELY go somewhere else.

I traveled in Europe for 2 months this summer and was not disappointed with any hostels but this one.It is located in the red light district so creepy men are always lingering. The rooms were alright, but the staff was out of keys so we just had to knock on our door and always hope that someone was inside. Ok for a one night stopover, but I would never stay there longer than necessary. The free internet was nice, but apparently they don't have it anymore. A bad feeling accompanies this place.
