Pros: Podstel Umbrella is on 5 minutes from Piata Romana just across the French Embassy. In a vicinity there are many cornershops and bakeries. Metro station and Calea Victoriei are also not far away. Facilities are well-keeped and functional. Hygiene is at the great level. Staff hospitable and ready to help in clear manner. During their own travel days, they developped systematic approach of hosting guests. You can easily catch those details in every corner. Umbrella together with Podstel Bucharest is trying to promote idea of community sharing between travelers and Bucharesters alike. As it is situated in old army officer's house, expect feeling of old days with interesting small yard for chilling out.

Pros: In my opinion the best location in the city. It’s a more sophisticated and vintage area with lots of nice old buildings and embassies. Not so overcrowded and loud like old town city centre. Always enjoy being here.

Cons: My impressions are more than favorable and cannot add anything as minus. It is not a party hostel. Try your luck at social gatherings at their other podstel.

Cons: Sometimes the water in the bathroom for a shower wasn’t warm. It happened a few times to different people in my room as well as myself, but seem to have no pattern (as some had hot in morning and some had hot in evening but no one knew exactly when it wasn’t going to be warm.

4.0 Okay
Pros: Good location, secure and felt safe. Nice bars and restaurants close by.
Cons: The room needs some maintenance! Loo roll holder was falling off the wall, bathroom door frame damaged, shower angle sprayed all over the floor etc. 30 mins spent on maintenance could fix those issues. We booked a triple room and were given a room with bunk beds. They were very noisy frames and would squeak and move a lot if someone turned in the night. In 2 nights we each had one hot shower. All other times the hostel ran out of hot water in the tank and we waited over an hour but still no hot water until the next day. Dirty cupboard left nasty sticky marks on my friends scarf! The man who checked us out didn’t seem to care about any of that.
