Staying at the Lubo was so fun. Felt homey with spacious rooms and kitchen amenities. The location was perfect for us with the ability to walk almost everywhere we went.

Disappointing experience. Very noisy so sleep was constantly disturbed. Everything seems to echo in the hotel. The walls are thin. The layout and construction of the hotel is conducive to amplifying noise. Noise from other guests in their rooms (scraping furniture, flushing toilets etc) doors slamming, the street, and from hotel hallways etc made it a poor stay.
Lack of staff or any form of presence from the hotel seems to encourage poor behaviour from other guests. Loads of random people hanging around the entrance to the hotel and there seemed to be people running up and down the stairs and floors at all hours. Honestly not a light sleeper but there was something about the noise during this stay that put me off.
Rest of room was ok. No water included in room. No clear check out instructions - turns out you just chuck your card in a box. I get the self check in but leaving a sign on your bed that reads "Cancel your cleaning" makes the hotel appear that its trying to do everything cheaply. Cancel was the first word I read so negative connontations.

It is not worth to try self-check in which there is no staff to help you. We arrived early, was not able to check in. The machine did not tell you why. We could not ask for store luggage. We had to walk back the train station to store luggage. If you are new to this city and not familiar self-check in, don't try it.
The toilet got clog, I emailed info@..., then they came to fixed.

Fantastic location, good multi-occupancy room layout (very compact for top bunks in 4 person room but not in there long).

Great location. Clean. Free espresso 24/7 in the “laundry room” where you can use washers and dryers for a fee. You can store your luggage if you arrive before check in. Elevator and AC, comfortable bed and room with kitchenette was a reasonable size. Not fancy, but would definitely stay here again.

I booked this room for a family of 4 with 2 teenagers. The bunk bed was a huge challenge to get in and out off. There was very little space for a 16 year old to access it. Otherwise the property was very clean and in a great location.

We stayed in a room with kitchenette which was perfect for our needs as a family of four. Great to be in the heart of the Old Town in Luzern. Hostel provided many shared amenities like laundry and coffee area which was a great help.

Excellent location close to train station and in middle of old town area. Check in very confusing. Needed a reservation number that was never sent (perhaps because I had selected to pay at
property?). Had to call and whoever answered was very helpful. Laundry was busy but very new machines and worked well. Would stay again.
