Our group booked three private rooms at the hostel for a short, one night stop in Brasov. While we did not know when we first booked that the private rooms were not in fact in the hostel (this was our mistake) we were surprised to find out that our rooms were extremely far from city center in a somewhat run...

We stayed here two nights recently. And the hostel was pretty full on both nights, largely due to the fact that our visit coincided with that of a large group of American missionaries (about 25 of them I think). The volume of guests inevitably put a strain on the facilities in the hostel. There were not a huge number of... More

Rolling Stone is more of a house than a hostel. Managed by two sisters who will truly take care of you. A couple of friendly cats. Light, complimentary breakfast. Within walking distance of Old Town and the main square. Grocery store close by. TONS of beds. Not tons of bathrooms. Main common room is a great way to meet others... More

There was a school group of about 40 students that stayed in this hostel when we stayed. There were two bathrooms to share between over 40 people. The toliets and basin were inside with the shower so every morning, we had to wait at least 10min before we could use the bathroom and we were queuing outside. Also the toliet... More

The two sisters who run the hostel from day to day are energetic like Duracell bunnies and will try to help you out even unasked. Besides the hostel, the owner also maintains an apartment with a few rooms and shared bathroom, which is basic but decnt enough. The hostel rooms are a bit of a factory. Large with beds lined...

Okay this is not a bad hostel, but it is the most disappointing place I have ever stayed in so far. Due to the sleeper train I arrived in Brasov at 6 AM. That is completely my own problem, but I was hoping someone to respond to the buzzer. While I looked at the facade I thought: nooo this looks... More

I ended up in Brasov a second time after a misadventure resulting in my being stranded in the middle of nowhere, Transylvania, then driven by some guardian angels almost one hundred kilometres back to Brasov! Of course I didn't have a hostel reservation, and the hostel I'd stayed at before (Kismet Dao) was fully booked, so I called Rolling Stone... More

How this place can get any good reviews I do not know. We arrived around midday and were told that the private room we booked was not ready which was fine so we amused ourselves in Brasov's town centre for a couple of hours. On our return we were told that it still wasn't ready and it would only take... More

You should avoid this hostel if you want to stay in Brasov. I arrived this hostel about 9am, but there is no manager at that time. I heard that she was sleeping so we waited for 10a hour. At 10pm, she appeared and informed us their guided tour! It took also 30 minutes although I don't want to know about... More
