    Ladies Only dorm - the best place to make the most of your stay; vintage architecture, because who needs elevators or air conditioning anyway?; a worldwide recognition as the best representative in the chosen nomination.

    Such a shame about the stolen laptop and the not-so-friendly staff. But hey, who needs security or a warm welcome when you're on vacation, right?

    We had a great stay in a spacious and thoughtfully decorated room with central heating, a fridge, and a desk. The courtyard view was a lovely addition. The hostel's location was fantastic, only a 5-minute walk from Golden Gate.

    A cozy space where contemporary design is accompanied by elements of antique architectural legacy. The ambiance is like stepping into a time capsule filled with modern comforts. The female-only dorm provides a safe and inclusive environment for female travelers to connect with each other and share their travel experiences. The room offers a queen-size bed, private bathroom, and various amenities like a mini-fridge and air conditioner. It's perfect for a comfortable and convenient stay. Each bed in the dorm features curtains, individual lights, power sockets, and a shelf for personal items, allowing for privacy and convenience. The hostel's location in the heart of the old city is perfect for exploring the cultural sights of Kyiv, such as the Golden Gate and Saint Sophia Cathedral. The friendly and helpful local team is always available at the reception to assist guests and provide information about the city. The hostel is surrounded by vibrant bars and popular restaurants, offering guests plenty of options for entertainment and dining. The price per night is affordable, making it a great choice for budget travelers.

    Limited complimentary toiletries provided.

    We loved the central location and the fact that the hotel is tucked away in a quiet area. the staff at reception were incredibly friendly and helpful. the interiors of the hotel were interesting and added to the overall charm. As families with children, we appreciated the clean and comfortable rooms, as well as the spacious windowsills and large windows in our double room. the loft-style interior design added a unique touch.

    Felt like a home away from home, no complaints at all.

    We stayed at a wonderful hostel in a great location. It was very close to everything, including restaurants and bars, making it easy for us to enjoy the vibrant nightlife. the room we stayed in was clean and comfortable, and the staff was friendly and helpful. the hostel had a nice kitchen, which was a bonus for us as a family. the location was walking distance from downtown, which allowed us to explore the city easily.

    That the lockers in the hostel were not secure enough, so we had to be cautious with our valuables.

    I had been eager to visit St Volodymyr's Cathedral, and Globe Runner's excellent location was the main reason I chose this hostel. However, I was pleasantly surprised by the flexible check-in time, which allowed me to settle in early. What I particularly liked was the lively atmosphere surrounding Globe Runner, with vibrant bars and popular restaurants all around.

    Poor floor sound isolation.

    The Globe Runner Hostel is in a perfect location with very friendly staff. The atmosphere feels like family. The room was a nice size and had its own bathroom, as well as an electric kettle and a fridge. The street view from the room was a good bonus. Additionally, the hostel is conveniently located only 0.5 miles from the airport.

    The room at Globe Runner Hostel was awesome! It had a comfy queen-size bed and a cool bunk bed for my family. The private bathroom was a plus, and I loved having a mini-fridge and an electric kettle. The open wardrobe and coffee table made it feel really cozy. And of course, the free WiFi was a lifesaver!

    Honestly, the only thing I didn't love was the air conditioner. It was a bit loud for my liking, but hey, that's just me.

    The location of the hotel was excellent, right in the heart of the city. The interior and exterior design of the building were impressive, giving it a modern and stylish atmosphere. I appreciated the convenient kitchen facilities and the clean bathrooms. The personal lights, power sockets, and USB ports at each bed were a great addition. The black-out curtains provided a good level of privacy and helped create a peaceful sleeping environment.

    The bed in my room was quite squeaky and screechy, which made it a bit uncomfortable during the night. Additionally, the lack of an elevator in the building was a slight inconvenience, especially when carrying luggage up and down the stairs.
