Hostel Blues is a big, newly renovated, modern hostel.
The Location
The hostel is in a good location, close enough to the historical centre of Bratislava to walk and not too far from the main train and bus stations. The hostel is located on one of the main roads leading to the centre so there is easy access to trams and taxis.
Rooms and Bathrooms
We stayed in a female dorm, which was clean and quite spacious. Each bed has its own large locker. The bathroom and the toilet are in the hallway. When you are in the dorm, you can hear everything when someone is using the bathroom or passing through the hallway, but I'm sure, as the hostel is quite new, that this will change as things improve. Also, the bunk beds are very wobbly. We heard that they have double bunk beds in dorm rooms, too, which might be fine if you're part of a couple but not so great if you're single and sharing the room, especially if the bed wobbles!
Common Spaces
The hostel receptionists are friendly and helpful and reception provides a daily list of things going on in the city such as exhibitions to see or clubs to go to at night. The kitchen and reception area are close together so there is a good social atmosphere around it. There is also internet and a nice sitting area beside the reception where you can meet other people.
Summary
Overall, for a pretty big hostel, it's nice enough and we'd recommend it.
