There was a wait at both check in and check out, they needed more staff on shift. The bar closed quite early.
The bathroom was very small, and the water wasn't that hot.

This hostel is right next to the train station so it’s very convenient for travel. The area is a little chaotic but very typical for areas around train stations. The room was clean, the beds were comfy, and the facilities were decent. Was able to utilize the laundry room and the bar area. The bathroom was super tiny and smelled a bit like sewage but totally fine for a night or two. There is a popular shopping area nearby and we were able to visit the Christmas markets.

Good place to stay for a short while. Bathroom/shower were extremely small- smaller than what you’d find on a cruise ship.

It was a great experience! the location of the hostel is perfect so close to the train station and many great restaurants. The available lockers to leave you baggage for a small fee were also very convenient after checkout!

Perfect location next to the main station meaning close to everything. That being said, the noise level outside of the hostel it's therefore high.

Perfect for 1 night stay
The Generator hostel is across the road from the train station which was very convenient for us. Check in was slow as there we many people checking in at the same time, rooms are small but clean, bathroom is tiny but still useable. Breakfast was 9 euro, there are laundry facilities for 6 euro. There are plenty of restaurants within a 10 minute walk. For our 1 night stay this hostel is perfect

Value for money.
Double room is small, but clean with a decent bed. Bathroom is very small. Overall good value for the price and location. 24/7 reception is a plus.

The close location to Hamburg HBF is nice however the showers are way too small for the average person and washrooms did not seem cleaned properly.
