Stefan Johannesberg from laut.de rated the album two out of five stars.^[1] He found that Girls in the House lacked charisma but displayed "a few good approaches. Whenever fast-paced grooves dominate songs like the title track, the first single "Everyday Girl" or the straight "Riding On a Lovetrain", the vocals of the five young singers do not stand out in a negative way, but rather act as a nice-sounding accessory. There is simply not enough more."^[1]
