The most important thing to note about Hostel Eleven is that it’s based above both Café Eleven and Eleven Club, which is great if you’re looking to socialise or possibly check out some live music. However, it is an arrangement that comes with some potential drawbacks, namely the noise from the street below and the lack of a central common area in the hostel.
The Location
One of the big selling points about Hostel Eleven is the location. It’s right in the thick of the historic centre of the city and quite literally around the corner from both the tourist information centre and Zelny Trh market square. St. Peter’s and St. Paul’s Cathedral is less than two hundred metres away, as is a Tesco Express if you’re after an affordably priced convenience store. You can also walk to the peak of the hill on which Spilberk castle stands in about twenty minutes, and it’s a similar distance to the main train and bus stations. And there’s no point in even trying to list all of the nearby restaurants and bars because there are far too many to count!
Rooms and Bathrooms
Hostel Eleven’s rooms are generally clean and very spacious. Sturdy, wooden bed frames and comfortable mattresses make for a decent night’s sleep -- provided you take advantage of the complimentary earplugs the hostel provides -- and large lockers mean you could probably fit your entire bag inside if you really wanted to. However, not all of the beds have plug sockets nearby and there aren’t any individual lamps in the berths. The bathrooms, though clean, are pretty basic. Toilets and showers are housed in separate cubicles and things can get a little cramped at times.
Common Spaces
As mentioned previously, the hostel doesn’t really have a central common area. There’s a small kitchen -- with a kettle, one hob, but no microwave or oven -- and what’s described as a dining area, though it’s really only big enough to accommodate two or three people. Still, there is some added desk space in the corridor, which proves to come in useful, although the strength of the Wi-Fi signal is pretty poor. Of course, if you’re planning on spending most of your time downstairs in either the café or the bar, then the lack of a decent common area isn’t going to be such an issue, so it really depends on what you're looking to get out of your stay.
Summary
While the beds are comfortable and the hostel is generally kept very clean, there’s no getting around the noisiness of the place, from both the club downstairs and the people that flood to the street below. In fact, it's the people on the street who are the loudest of the lot. The free earplugs do help to minimise the issue, but there’s still the lack of a main common room to consider, meaning the place doesn’t have too much of an atmosphere. All in all, this hostel is probably better suited to groups than it is to solo travelers.
