This was a nice hostel. They have an elevator which is nice when you have heavy bags. They also have lockers in the room and one's you can use after checkout. The location is great. The only thing was it had a very late check in time which i didnt understand. You make and strip your own beds.

Die nicht beaufsigten Kinder haben in der Dusche zu 103 106 den Duschknopf abmontiert. Dieser flog mir ins Gesicht linke Augenbraue dick und blau dem Personal gemeldet Unsauberkeit begründet durch die antiautoritäre Erziehung der Kinder Personal gibt sich Mühe,wenn die Eltern nicht mitmachen ist es dreckig

Ideal!
Alles ideal, auch die Lage. Sehr freundlicher und hilfsbereiter Empfang! Super Frühstück für eine Jugenderberge. Nur ein Kleiderbügel, um ein feuchtes Kleidungsstück aufzuhängen, fehlte mir im Einzelzimmer. Ein Wasserglas und ein installierter Föhn wäre auch praktisch. Ich komme gerne wieder!
