The Monks Bunk Hostel & Bar

Hostel

Helpful staff and very good location BUT… extremely noisy from young ppl playing music extremely loudly, thin walls/doors, and tour groups gathering right outside the window ppl talking/yelling in the street early morning and cigarette smoke smell (gap under the door) especially with an adjacent smoking courtyard door left open most of the time. Because it's so cheap I had some dubious roommates one so smelly that staff let in at 330-4am waking up the whole dorm that I had to change and pay for a double private room. It was one of my worst hostel stays to be honest, am used to better but in summer things are booked out if you don't book far enough in advance. Good to explore the old town but not if you need any sleep or want fresh air to breathe, probably better for an under 30.

Pleasant staff, great location, clean rooms)

The only good aspect about this place, is the location in the center of the old town (ok, the bathrooms and showers are also new and clean). Otherwise it was a mess. We had a room with pipes running at the ceiling. Every time someone flushed the toilet or showered, one could hear the water running through the pipes. It was loud enough, that I woke several times at night. Furthermore in the neighbouring room was a kitchen. So when they cooked, the smell came over to our room.

Good hostel, stay here not for the first time, everyone likes.

Noisy, but functional. Owners spoke good English and everyone was friendly. Good location for exploring and easy to find. Tallinn is awesome so this hostel was great value for money whilst we explored.

Stayed in the hostel in May for a couple of days. The night cost 10 euros. The location is the most super-so in the old town. The staff are mostly young guys, friendly and polite. The room was caught with the heroes of Marvel, that's how pleased! Inside everything is clean, light, beds are not squeaky. There is a small kitchen, where there is everything you need for cooking. Also a spacious dining room with sofas, where you can just sit. Toilets with a bathroom in satisfactory condition, cleaning was carried out every day. In general, I thank this hostel. I'll definitely be back again.

Amazing hostel perfectly placed in the old city, within walking distance of everything, with very cool and helpful staff. Basically it's a perfect quality/price ratio. I strongly recommend.

Nice room, good size kitchen and sitting area. All outlined clearly as stated on website. Great location for all the Old Town sites.

I'm no hostel expert but this place had everything I wanted and needed. A kitchen — one that was usually lively with people from all over the world cooking their cuisine (Punjabi and Korean while I was there). A clean and well-kept bathroom and shower. Clean rooms, well decorated so I felt comfortable and at home. Good Wi-Fi connection. A helpful and expedient staff. I also really liked the location. I was doing a good amount of work while I was there and so it was helpful to have a number of cafes and restaurants within literally 2-3 minutes walking distance.

Not finished at all. Nice treatment from the staff. Nice place.

Hostel is definitely very economic and it offers just exactly what is needed to stay in the city. A good bunk bed, luggage storage, a kitchen with fridge, mini stove, microwave, and all cutlery necessary. It has an odd smell. However, the price makes up for it, including breakfast of coffee and biscuits. Plus a little guitar to spend some time at.

Very nice youth hostel.

In the heart of old town, lovely staff, biggest problem was the beds, they were very wobly and felt so unstable, didn't dare to even move in bed afraid its gonna braek.

Truly no frills but it does keep you dry and warm when it's freezing cold and snowing.

Cozy hostel in the center, nice staff, for its price is excellent.

Great staff, was a fairly quiet hostel but the walls are thin. Good location and very helpful, and the layout is pretty neat. Definitely would stay here again if I'm back in Tallinn.

Lack of style. All so old, furniture is not combined. There is a fireplace in the common room, but when it burns, you can only sit there in a T-shirt and shorts.

Very friendly receptionist at all times, ready at any time to accommodate your guests.

Extremely friendly people and atmosphere, clean and functionally equipped.

For the price this place is perfectly fine. It's insanely well located, but still reasonably quiet. It's clean and the staff is very friendly. I'm addition they have free lockers which I find to be a very nice bonus. Overall I can only recommend this place.

I was there for 3 days, very friendly staff and the location is the best. Price is great too.

The location is absolutely ideal. The dorm rooms are quite small, but the beds are very comfortable, and the staff are very friendly. Some services (eg. Laundry) are only available at the property's partner hostels.

Very clean, good atmosphere and very secure.

A cozy hostel with excellent staff.

Very good value for the price.

Central location in Old town, very clean place and great staff.

Huge hostel. They advertise a lot of activities around the city if you are looking for something to do (including tours, paintball, go-kart, shooting range). Beds are long but mattress were not very comfortable. Shower on our floor was broken. Receptionist from Albania was super friendly and helpful. Chatting with him was probably the best part of the stay.

A nice and clean hostel in the center of the Tallin Old Town. Me and my family stayed here for two night and we recommend this hostel to backpacker travellers.

Staff is very kind and professional. Rooms are clean. The position is perfect to visit the beautiful old town. There is a little kitchen, the supermarket is 2 mins walking distance.

Nice place, well located, nice staff. Gave three stars because of toilets and lockers. Few showers and toilets, compared to the amount of people who sleeps there. During my 4 nights stay, In morning time I NEVER found a free toilet or a free shower at the first attempt. Lockers are small and outside the room but not a big deal. Anyway room and facilities were clean and the staff is really nice.

The room is very big and comfortable. But you should climb up the stairs. Toilet is cleaned. Staff is very kind here!

Nice staff, above-average bathrooms & beds, nice common area & kitchen, good Wi-Fi.

Very good location in the heart of Tallinn. Spent 1 night there and liked it. Nice staff, cleanliness was ok. It seemed a bit run-down and could be invested in a bit.

Very nice staff and perfect location. The only cons are there is only 1 toilet in the last floor for 20 beds.

Great if you don't stay on the fourth flour in which case you basically sleep in a hallway.

Best hostel I visited in my life. We arrived quite late in the evening, but the welcome was exquisite. It was a clear and super friendly explanation about the hostel, keys, extra bathrooms, nearby supermarkets, clubs, restaurants, sightseeing places and more. This hostel has lockers, lots of plugs, good security, room to place your bag, coat hangers, computers for free, open kitchen with a lot of cutlery, glasses and space, table football and friendly people that immediately invite you over to drink. Even some employees joined us. 5/5.

Great location, great price, extremely friendly and willing to help out reception, huge plus.
Clean and maintained rooms are really nice.
Not to mention, great place to meet other travelers watch a movie, play board games all together.
I definitely recommend this hostel from my experience, which was amazing!

I only can reccomend to avoid this hostel. Their behaviour and terms of contract are mistakable and atypical for this business.

Best place in Tallinn! Clean, comfortable, excellent services and perfect location if you want to see Tallinn.

Wonderful priložene:-)
