The cozy Aquarium Youth Hostel is discreetly tucked away on the second story of an unmarked building -- so have the street number handy in order to find it. The location is close to Keleti station with its restaurants galore, and just down the street from a grocery store.
The amenities include free internet, free padlocked locker usage, washer and dryer, a fully equipped kitchen with gas stove and fridge, cable television, and hot showers. The staff are friendly and helpful. Colorfully painted octopi overlook the common areas, which are clean, comfortable, and quiet. This hostel offers double rooms and dorm rooms containing four to eight bunk beds each. Beds are minimalistic but comfortable enough -- just don't come expecting down comforters.
Party animals should look elsewhere. There seems to be an unconscious tendency towards soft voices even in the daytime and nearly total silence after 11 p.m. on a weekday or Sunday night. For those of a calmer persuasion, however, the Aquarium Youth Hostel may be just the thing you've been looking for.
