Hostel Bunker Factory Reviews

Due to the central location Hostel Ananas is good, despite a few things we found lacking!

The Location

The hostel is situated centrally on the north side of Wenceslas Square. This is basically where the Old Town of Prague starts (district Prague One), so everything is in walking distance. Most of the sights and bars are here.
The main bus station of Prague called Florenc is just two stations away, and you can get there by taking the yellow line to the metro station Florenc. The metro station Mustek is exactly in front of the hostel. Unfortunately, due to the central location there is no supermarket nearby.

The hostel is located in a passage; the reception is on the ground floor, while the entrance of the hostel is further down the passage, and you have to take an elevator to the second or third floor.

Rooms and Bathrooms

The hostel itself has lots of rooms/beds, giving it a little bit of an anonymous or sterile atmosphere, as is often the case with big hostels. Basically it is just bare rooms with a couple of bunk beds in them. Fortunately, our dormitory has its own toilet and shower rooms. Due to the number of rooms, the corridors are very long, and the carpet in the corridor has lots of stains. The smell in the corridor is not too nice, but it's still ok; you can feel the number of people staying here everyday and that they have to clean a lot.

There are no hooks to hang your stuff, either in the rooms or in the bathrooms. Beds are comfortable and have individual lights. Big lockers are underneath the bottom bunk bed, unfortunately if you only bring a small padlock, you cannot close the lock. Make sure to bring a medium- to big-size lock.

Common Spaces

Basically the common space is one of the corridors. They have tables and chairs there, even a bed in front of a TV. There also is a small kitchen with a refrigerator. Unfortunately, there are no windows emanating from the corridor. We did not find the common space too clean or inviting.

Summary

The big advantage of this hostel is its central location. Most important sights and bars are in walking distance.
On the other hand, it is a mass hostel, so atmosphere is lacking, rooms are sterile, and you can see stains and some erosion in the hostel. The staff are very professional and speak English on a high level, they really try to help you a lot (if possible, it's better to ask outside of peak times). There was one issue where they said they were not responsible for an item lost during luggage storage (they have a big room for that). Fortunately, that item was found later, but still, what are the luggage room, the handed-out luggage numbers, and the staff for?
