I love Budapest, and as a young woman travelling solo, it's important to me that a place is safe and in walking distance to trams and metro. This place was perfectly situated and the flat itself is comfortable, homey and safe. I've been to Budapest several times, and staying with Ryan and Ron was by far my favorite trip! They... More

BED BUGS!!!!!!...........BED BUGS!!!!!!.............BED BUGS!!!!!!! The room we stayed in had BED BUGS. I woke up every day with what I thought was mosquitto or spider bites all over my back, the last day we saw a reddish brown bug on the frame of the bed.

dicit_discipulo, I admire your Latin name "the disciple speaks". However, I fear you have spoken in error or perhaps you reviewed the wrong facility. Perhaps another guesthouse has a similar name. Since I live here in our B & B, I would surely notice any bed bug problem, and swiftly solve it. Of course Mother Nature's creatures challenge all of... More

The Accommodations: Like other guests, I was worried about sharing a bathroom with the hosts. However, we never crossed paths and the bathroom was immaculate and updated. And my husband and I are very picky about cleanliness. There are nice windows in the bathroom along with high ceilings, which made it nice and airy in there. The flat itself is... More

Before I start my review, I feel like I should tell you a little about us. We are 49 years old and we were traveling with our 2-year-old grandson. I have NEVER stayed in a hostel. I have only stayed in a B&B once and I swore I would never, ever again stay in a place where I did not... More

And we're happy to be part of your 'conversion' to B & B travel, even tho you had to share the master bath... but only in the daytime; during the night, the 2nd guestroom uses our half bath. We...

We have stayed with Ron and Ryan more than once and would not hesitate to stay there again. The value from amenities, location, and hospitality just cannot be matched in our opinion. We have no hesitation about recommending BudaBaB to our friends and family; we'd have peace of mind that they'd be in good hands.

I stayed at BudaBaB this past December/early January and it was an absolute haven. While there I toured Budapest, taking in the famous baths and the Chain Bridge on New Year's Eve. But more importantly I enjoyed the beautiful turquoise guest room to write poetry. The all-round environment was safe (I am a single woman and felt quite fine there,... More

For the most part it was ok. I only had a problem with the cleanliness of the kitchen,bathroom and my bedding. The kitchen smelt like old food. I think I saw a roach but I am not 100% sure if it was. The bathroom was not well kept, it looked worn out and grimey. I never felt that good while... More

As live-in owner, I'll admit that an annual caravan of water ants come out of the winter cold, and in the summer, a small squadron of fruit flies and one or two mosquitoes (we're lucky!) buzz through, but cockroaches? They and mice and other vermin just won't climb the stairs, and are frightened of the elevator. Future guests, you can... More

¬As a live-in owner of BudaBaB bed and breakfast, I was very surprised to read this review by Travel B. I’m very sorry his or her experience was unpleasant. I am puzzled because we had only 2 solo guests that month- one from the USA and the other from Hungary, while Travel B lists himself as solo and UK as... More

Immensely enjoyable stay at this B&B, both hosts knowledgeable about the city and area and only too willing to offer advice. I stayed two nights in November and the B&B was ideally placed for most of the sights, the metro is only a short walk away and restaurants and bars are plentiful in the immediate vicinity if you are travelling...

We actually walked to BudaBab upon arrival from Kaleti train station following the exact directions from the web site. HOWEVER, upon departure we, two, shall I say, ladies of a certain age were escorted by tram to the station with our heavy suitcases carried by two gentlemen, Ron and Ryan, the owners of BudaBaB.
