    the staff at Sleepy Lion Hostel, Youth Hotel & Apartments was incredibly friendly and the location was amazing! It was perfect for attending the WGT as it was close to all the tram stops and even within walking distance to some of the venues. the breakfast provided was simple but sufficient, especially if you're in a hurry. they offered towel rentals at a reasonable price, which was convenient if you forgot to bring your own. the hostel had a welcoming atmosphere, was clean, and checking in/out was easy, even late at night. Cons: Nothing I didn't like, to be fair. 😊.

    The location of the hotel was perfect, very close to the train station. the room was clean and the staff was friendly. I also loved the old and beautiful building, especially the cool staircase. Plus, the free tea and coffee provided in the communal space was a nice touch.

    One drawback was that there was no soap provided in the room, which I found surprising. the upper beds in the dorm room were a bit slippery and uncomfortable to get off of.

    The location of the hotel is very convenient, as it is near the main station and easily accessible to other parts of the city. The staff is friendly and helpful, providing relevant explanations and ensuring a pleasant stay. The beds in the private rooms are clean and comfortable, allowing for a good night's sleep.

    The Wi-Fi signal in the hotel is weak and may disconnect frequently.

    Great location - train station, city center, shopping mall, and restaurants within 10-15 minutes by foot. Friendly and helpful staff. Clean rooms and nice hostel interior.

The rooms were spacious and comfortable, and the location was perfect for exploring the city. We loved the included breakfast with a variety of options. a superb experience at this hostel.

    The location was central, making it easy for us to explore Leipzig. The staff were friendly and helpful, ensuring we had everything we needed. The kitchenette in our room was convenient for preparing meals for the kids. It was also a great value for money, allowing us to save on accommodation expenses and spend more on exciting activities during our trip.

    For dads, it would be great to have more family-friendly amenities available, such as a playground or an indoor activity area for the children.

    This hostel is the perfect place to dive into the cultural life of a city you didn't even know existed. It's like a hidden gem, with all the city's attractions just a short walk away.

    WiFi was so good, I had to actually put my phone away and interact with people. Ugh, the horror!

    I stayed at this hostel for two nights and was pleasantly surprised by my experience. The rooms were clean and spacious, and the location was very convenient, within walking distance of the central train station and the zoo. The breakfast buffet was standard, and there was a small kitchen available for use. The staff provided helpful information on what to do in the city. I had a great stay and would recommend this hostel.

    Great location, walking distance from the main station. The room was bigger than expected, with plenty of space for luggage. Clean and warm room. Nice and helpful staff. Good Wi-Fi and cozy bed.

    The room was a bit noisy, especially in the morning due to the main road outside. Thin walls, could hear voices from nearby rooms.

    I recently stayed at Sleepy Lion Hostel in Leipzig for a few nights and had a wonderful experience. The staff at the front desk were incredibly friendly and helpful, always willing to assist with any questions or concerns. The location was perfect for exploring the city's historical center, and the facilities were clean and well-maintained. I appreciated that the noise rules were actually enforced, allowing for a peaceful night's sleep. The fast internet and the flexibility with breakfast time were also great bonuses. I had a fantastic stay at Sleepy Lion.

    I would definitely recommend this hostel.
