Reviews of Buddha Hostel Bodoni

The Ukrainian man is the owner or manager there and he handles everything so pathetic, he only speaks Russian and he try to scam the English speakers, for me and other he said he doesn’t consider booking.com receipts. He took again money from us.

Location

Rudest staff, unhygienic toilets and no air flow in the rooms. No air conditioner or fan. Broken toilet doors. The receptionist tall guy(my be the owner) is one of the rudest i have seen. Specially, if you cant speak Russian or local language. Walk in and check your room and the cleanliness there, before booking online.

Location was convenient

After travelling to 60 countries in 2 years, unfortunately found the worst hostel. Dont book this hostel without physical checking your accommodation facilities there. No air-conditioning, or fan in the rooms. Only one table Fan in the common lounge. Only people staying in the hostel are refugees from ukraine, long term stay. Personally saw 3 or 4 customers walking out after checking the living conditions in 2 days. Toilet door lock is broken and anyone can walk in anytime. Also, if you are a non russian or local language speaker, be ready to receive rude behaviour from the receptionist guy and other staff. No one can speak english.

We arrived late and there was a sign saying the hostel was already full, no bell, and we had issues calling the phone number written (maybe our fault) had to stay somewhere else late

The location is central. Places of interest for tourists, for business, for students, are all very accessible on foot or by boarding public transportation at stops one or two minutes from the hostel. Several grocery stores, cafe's, dining, money exchange, are only one minute walking distance from the hostel. Two outdoor seating areas offer ample space for occasionally lazy hostel guests.The kitchen areas are functional. Laundry machine & service is offered with outdoor lines for drying. Keep in mind, this is a travelers hostel and it is in a very convenient location for a hostel.

Quelqu'un a bu ma Chisinau Blonde (bière) que je gardais dans le réfrigérateur partagé. *INDICE* : J'ai écrit ceci en français.

It's cheap and the bed is comfortable.

The hostel was very dirty and poorly maintained, with a dark atmosphere and a suffocating smell that made it difficult to breathe. The bathroom was full of hair and clearly not cleaned regularly, while the kitchen was filthy and unhygienic. The whole place felt neglected and uncomfortable — I would not recommend staying here.

The only thing I liked it was the location.

Room looked like a warehouse. Toilet was so dirty and no toilet paper even. And the sheets doubtfully were not clean.

The location is literally right across from the city center. Markets and restaurants are less than a five minute walk away. There is a patio area to relax in on sunny days.

There was another guest who was very rude and evil. He said very mean and crude things in the Russian language. But it is something that cannot be controlled or predicted when staying at a hostel. Situations can be random.

The Manager was very friendly and accommodating.

Nothing. Everything I needed was available at the Hostel. I would recommend it to anyone!

Location was great, the hostel is located directly in the centre of the city.

I location is very good and almost at the city center

The bathroom are the place is not good and the there are few people who are living longer there more like a person who works and they cook there and spoil the kitchen place making it not nice to eat. The washrooms are literally dirty and I have seen cockroaches and the people who live there pee with the toilet seat down which makes it harder to clean everytime we poo. The toilet paper is very poor quality and there is no shower gel provided.

Poor. And for the price? Even worse. No toilet paper, no soap. It smells bad in the female room (one lady LIVES there, there are her stuff everywhere and she also eats in the room), no daily cleaning, a lot of hair on the floors everywhere. Also the lady snores like a bear at night and speaks by the phone in the room during the day. +Uncomfortable bed:(

relatively good address

i showed up to the wrong buddha hostel first. they told me they have two hostels and ofc i went to the wring one. extremely dirty shower, no toilet paper, bad smelling pillow. they gave me a wrong room. i ordered one with bed blinds but mine didn't have. extremely high humidity! only old russian men LIVING here.

I love the location in the center-center.

The bathroom and kitchen are dirty

was good

only one and small bathroom

The price was blown 5 times.

Cost.

It is right across the main park of the city and has walking distance to many places you’d want to visit. Also the price is very good and the bed was comfortable.

The place was very dirty. I didn’t even want to brush my teeth in there. People, who were usually not the traveller type in a bas way, were very loud even in the middle of the night around 3am. There was no lock to the door. We weren’t given a key and the door was literally open for everybody. Lastly, there were no plugs to charge our devices.

1. Excellent location, hardly 5min walk to the Metropolitan Cathedral and all the points of interest from there. 2. Decent kitchen facilities good enough to make simple meals. 3. Also has the washing machine for your use. 4. Wifi works well.

1. Staff couldn't speak English at all, communicating was an issue. 2. It's a big room with 4 bunk beds, adjoining the kitchen. Very tiny common space in the kitchen and is very quiet. Hard to talk to anyone on the phone without disturbing others. Definitely can't take work meetings/calls. In summers you can move to the outdoor area though. 3. One of the toilets was dirty most of the time while the other was good enough. 4. On one of the nights, one of the men got drunk and he was so loud until about 1am in the night that I could hardly sleep.
