Happy Hostel Kiev

I booked this hostel in the morning before boarding a train. Their site asked me for a phone number to get in touch. Unfortunately I did not have a working number and it was impossible for me to send them a email ( please take note and ad that to yiour site !) I was able to put on my estimated arrival time which was around 10.30 pm. Once I got to the address, I was looking at a steel door with no sign or no information about the hostel or how to get in. After 10 minutes and asking a few people, we noticed a banner on the third floor on the other side of the building, luckily for me another 10 minutes before someone entered that balcony and I could ask them to let me in. That seriously needs to be addressed !! The manager was extremely friendly and informative, whispering all the time. After settling in, I asked him if there was a store nearby to buy a beer. He pointed me to a pub as there is no alcohol allowed in the hostel. Is that a hostel?? haha, I can respect that but still find it a little strange. At 10 pm, it is quite time, thus the whisper when I arrived. The facility has a full size kitchen, a living room and I was in a 12 bed dorm, I think. No a/c/ and it got a little hot in the room. Location is easy to find and very well located. Close enough to talk everywhere in town that is worth seeing. It's a nice hostel with friendly manager in a great location. Just do not expect to party or even have a beer ( which I like my beer) and you will enjoy your stay. If this review is helpful to you, then please give it a thumbs up !
