The hostel offers a range of room options, including dormitories and double rooms. While guests commend the cleanliness and stylishness of the rooms, there are frequent mentions of the small, cramped spaces and lack of ventilation, especially in the basement rooms.

In addition to its proximity to transport options, the hostel is within walking distance to the historic Old Town, allowing guests to explore the city's cultural heart without hassle. A short walk will take visitors to key points of interest, blending convenience with the charm of Vilnius.

The hostel’s location is noted for being not just central, but also very close to essentials like shops and restaurants, contributing to an all-around comfortable and practical stay.

Rooms
HelloVilniusHostel provides a variety of room types to suit different traveler needs, including dorm rooms and double rooms. Many guests have remarked positively on the cleanliness of the rooms and the comfort of the beds, which also come with clean linens and the provision of towels. The double rooms in particular are noted to be stylish and cute, offering a pleasant experience for guests.

However, space is a recurring issue in the reviews. Many rooms, especially dorms, are described as very small, cramped and lacking in ventilation. This includes rooms that are located in the basement, which also suffer from a lack of daylight and can feel a bit humid. Noise can be a problem as well, given that room doors often open directly into common areas or the reception, allowing sound to carry easily.

Privacy and security concerns were also highlighted with complaints about the absence of room locks and lockers for personal belongings. Some guests were dissatisfied with room assignments that did not match their bookings, as well as discrepancies between advertised amenities and what was actually provided—such as the non-existent kitchen and private bathrooms.

In summary, while HelloVilniusHostel offers visually appealing and clean accommodations, prospective guests should be prepared for smaller room sizes and less privacy, especially in the dormitory settings. The hostel is suitable for travelers who are mainly looking for a place to sleep and do not require extensive amenities or large personal spaces.

Beds
HelloVilniusHostel offers a variety of sleeping arrangements that visitors generally found to be comfortable. Many guests praised the beds, noting that they felt alright, comfy and even very comfortable. The mattresses were often described as soft, which some found pleasant while a few others thought they were very soft. Clean bedding was consistently noted and several guests appreciated the curtains around the beds that provided a sense of privacy.

However, taller guests and those using the upper bunk beds faced limitations. Some found the beds a bit short with one guest mentioning difficulty fitting at 184cm tall. The low ceiling for top bunk beds and narrow space in bunk beds were also highlighted as drawbacks. Additionally, the beds were described as squeaky and lacking sturdiness in some cases, which could be bothersome when sharing a room.

Despite these occasional drawbacks, the inclusion of power outlets and lighting by the beds was a notable convenience, adding to the overall acceptable quality of the sleeping arrangements. The hostel seems to be a generally solid choice for a comfortable stay in Vilnius, particularly for those who appreciate clean bedding and a modicum of personal space in shared rooms.

Cleanliness
HelloVilniusHostel has received mixed reviews regarding its cleanliness. Some guests have praised the hostel for being clean and pleasant with bedding and rooms noted as clean, cozy and equipped with essential facilities. The common living room is described as having everything you might need, including a refrigerator, dishes, a kettle and a microwave. Bathrooms have been mentioned to be surprisingly clean by some visitors and housekeeping efforts were acknowledged.

However, many reviews have highlighted significant concerns about the overall cleanliness. Common areas like the kitchen are often cited as greasy and sticky, while the rooms have been found dusty and dirty. The hostel has been described as smelly with a generally dirty atmosphere that made some guests uncomfortable. Bathrooms and toilets, in particular, were frequently mentioned as needing more thorough and frequent cleaning with some guests feeling the need to wear shoes at all times due to the floor conditions.

There are issues related to maintenance, such as reeking toilets, malfunctioning soap dispensers and the need to wash cutlery before use. The common areas have been criticized for being chaotic, messy and not properly maintained. Some guests found the shared areas cramped and insufficiently cleaned, leading to an overall impression that the hostel’s cleanliness standards require significant improvement.

In summary, while there are flashes of cleanliness and comfort at HelloVilniusHostel, these are overshadowed by frequent and diverse complaints about the general state of cleanliness and maintenance.

However, it should be noted that experiences with the hostel's staff can vary. While many guests praise the team for being lovely and helpful, some reviews reflect encounters with unprofessional or unkind behavior. Despite this, the positive sentiments about the hostel staff generally outweigh these less favorable interactions, suggesting a mostly dependable and courteous service. Cleanliness and reliability are additional strengths, further enhancing the hostel's reputation as a comfortable accommodation option in Vilnius.

On the positive side, some guests reported that the Wi-Fi worked extremely well on the upper floors and even extended to outdoor areas. There were mentions of good Wi-Fi performance in shared spaces like the living room.

Many experienced weak or non-existent signals, particularly in rooms on the ground floor and lower levels, such as an 8-bed room and Chamber 4. Stability of the connection was another common concern with reports of an unstable signal affecting both private rooms and some kitchen areas.
