2-Star Hotels in Budapest

The location is perfect. Right in the center of the city. Really near to airport shuttle bus station, 5 minutes walk. The room however was a disappointment. The first room they put me in the bed has crumbs all over it. Asked them to clean, they put me in a new room instead. The bed was not comfortable, the duvet was soo old and smelly. Pillow as well. The worst was the bathroom. It has a very foul smell 😩. I would not go back again. But then its very cheap and location is not bad!

The hostel is not far from downtown, three metro stops from Deak Ferenc ter (square), the central downtown transit hub. And the metro station is 100 meters from hostel. I was received by an unkind and unfriendly female receptionist who did not want to give me a bed far away from the AC. I checked in at 15:30, when the other beds were available, but she was just lazy to change my bed. In the evening as the AC was blowing so hard and I did not want to wake up sick in the morning, I had to ask another receptionist to find me another room where the AC was blowing normally. He had a hard time to find another bed. When the next day during check out I talked to the manager and stated that I was not happy with the unkind receptionist, she got even more angry. However, the front desk manager noted my complain about the AC and said they would be working on it. Upon picking my luggage I noted that my towel was stolen from the towel rack on the fourth floor terrace. Actually, you have to pay to rent a towel, and some guests do not want to do it, they prefer stealing other guest’s towels. I checked out with the front desk, and they investigated the missing towel with cleaners, but did not find my towel, which was very different than hostel’s ones. I was happy that my luggage that was left at the reception desk upon check out was ok.

The location is good, u can basically get anywhere by walking. Mind that the WiFi isn't so easy to connect when ur inside those rooms that r bit far from the reception

I stayed here for 12 nights as I arrived late at night the check in was so fast, and all was good as it was clean at the Maverick as they have alot to get involved in with things happening on different nights like 🎱 pool , quiz nights and also have a kitchen what is a good thing if you like to make your own food as they are only one negative that I have was they didn't change my bedding for 12 nights I was there but all in all I would still recommend the Maverick to friends or anyone that travelling to Budapest

Great location. 24hr check in. Staff were really friendly and helpful, they let me check out an hour later on request, which was a huge help. Quiet area but close to everything you need - restaurants, cafés, shops, public transport etc. Room was comfortable and well equipped with plenty of towels and toilet roll. Shampoo provided. Can't fault it for the price - would stay again :)

The location is great. Lockers are available at the hostel. The beds are clean and comfortable. If you want towels, you have to rent them, there is no hair dryer. It's hard to sleep at night because of the music but we already knew that before we came.

The room is a bit stuffy, in the city, the night bar jumping and blasting the street affect the sleep experience. A cash deposit is required for housing.

There is an elevator, which is good for travelers with heavy luggage. It's nice to have a kitchen. The room is really clean, and the bathroom and shower booth are kept clean.

Room was simple, but reflects the price and location appropriately. It was suitable enough for us after the day of sightseeing in Budapest. Bathrooms are shared, but they are clean and renovated recently - just like on the photos in the hotel description. It is easy to hear nearly everything through the door, so you will need to be a little lucky not to have a bunch of students as your neighbors if you want to have a good nights sleep. PS: attached photos were taken at the end of our stay.

The hotel is newly renovated and clean. That's the only upside to it. The price is not worth it. You need an access code to the building which the hotel didn't provide before your arrival to prepare you for it which leads to you having to call them middle of night and not even sure if it's the right hotel. The entrance is very dodgy and you will find homeless people sleeping near the entrance every night which makes it feel very uninviting and unsafe. The staff are mostly new to hospitality or mainly students. The curtain was broken when we first arrived to close it. The sheets were not the right size for the bed, they did not use a fitted sheet but just a queen sized sheeet that only covered the top of the bed with nothing securing it, so they came off mattress as I slept at night. Wound up sleeping on the mattress half the time. The cleaning lady didn’t clean my room despite hanging the notice on the door and notifying the reception. Avoid this place and with the same price, you'll get better service and proper quality hotel.
