Reviews indicate that there is a kitchen facility for saving money and making your own snacks. Having said this, a few guests thought this could have been better equipped, with some especially wishing for a stove.
Since rooms at Hostel B47 are accessed via keypad entry, with codes sent to you prior to arrival, some guests occasionally had problems with initial access due to not receiving codes, or even had issues with room access mix-ups. In addition, a few people said the Wi-Fi was not great throughout the entire hostel.
While this seems to be great for self-catering travellers, those guests who like to have service on site were unhappy that there were generally no staff on site. This was especially the case for people who had code problems, or those who simply did not feel safe without on-site staff.
A small number of guests have mentioned that the kitchen and shared bathrooms can tend to get a little messy, especially with some longer-stay guests who apparently treat it a little like home.
