Thumbs up.
…….Hostel life doesn’t get much better than this laid back place, which has themed dorms, genuinely helpful owner, and a common room with movies, music, and cheap beer. Free internet. Reception 24 hours……
The laid-back Back Pack is in a colourfully painted suburban ’villa’ in south Buda and is reatively small, with a mere 50 beds (large dormitories with between seven and 11 beds, and small ones with for to five), but therein lies its charm. There is a super garden in the back, wiht a Thai-style longing/sleeping platform / they call it a gazebo / as well as hammocks. Internet access is free and there is low-cost massage available. The upbeat attitude of the friendly, much travelled manager seems to permeate the place and the welcome is always warm.
