A great base in Kiev
I was very happy with my stay here. The showers and bathroom facilities were excellent and the bed was comfortable. There’s a great view from the dorm and most things were walkable from here, (although the metro is 2 minutes away if you want to save your legs!) The area the hostel is in is very nice, and I enjoyed the company of the other guests.

I've had a great time at ZigZag (note that it's named ZyhZah in Ukrainian transcription) hostel. It is located in one of the most convenient locations in Kiev city center. All 3 subway lines are a walking distance a way, which makes it easy to get around. Also, there are lots of stores and amenities nearby. What made the stay particularly special was the friendly staff who work at the hostel. Victoria, one of the girls working at the reception, was very helpful with all requests involving city sightseeing, including directions to places in the city that tourists would be hard-pressed to find in any way other than word-of-mouth. The tea was appreciated as well. This hostel isn't perfect, but I would certainly recommend staying there because of excellent staff.

You get what you pay for
The location of this hostel is great! There are restaurants, shopping and other sites nearby. I stayed in a 4 person room and it was very cramped... It would have been better used for a 2 person room. The wifi is also not great. When I arrived it took me almost 2 hours to connect. When I let the woman at the desk know, she said "well my phone is connected so it must just be your phone" and couldnt be bothered to do anything about it. I talked to other people in the hostel and it was not working for them either. Meaning it wasn't just my phone... There was also no soap available in the bathrooms/common sinks which is a bit gross if you ask me. I ended up buying my own soap to use. My least favorite thing was the fact that I had to go to the 2nd floor to take a shower. They had shower stalls on the 1st floor but they just used them as storage... The showers they did have could use a good deep cleaning. It was not the best hostel but also not the worst. If you are looking for a cheap place to stay with a good location and you don't need anything luxurious it will do.

Great City with a lot of places to visit. The hostel location is close to underground and local buses. Hostel is not large but it does have several showers and toilets. There is a TV in the Kitchen and another TV is in a small area where you can sit on Beanbags. McDonalds and Dominos Pizza is a small walk away. Beds have above average mattress for a Hostel.

Nice and super affordable
Nice hostel with welcome staff. I had no problems with super late arrival (while I promised to arrive about several hours earlier) which was a happy news for me :) Otherwise it's nice value for the money. Will be stopping there again if I need just a place for overnight stay.
