The reception guy was not so kind, I mean he made a mistake during the check in but acted like I was mistaken. The kitchen amanities were not so clean, there was lack of soap in the lavatory.

Das Innere der Unterkunft könnte man sicher mit wenig Aufwand charmanter gestalten. Der Aufenthaltsraum ist deutlich zu klein, auch war von 3 für alle Gäste vorhandenen Toiletten eine ständig abgesperrt. Die wechselnde Mannschaft an der Rezeption war mit einer Ausnahme ziemlich unfreundlich und lieblos. Das Frühstück besteht aus Brot, Kaffee, Marmelade und Corn Flakes, wobei die leeren Marmeladengläser nicht direkt aufgefüllt wurden, man also unter Umständen vor leeren Gläsern sass. Insgesamt war die Stimmung im Hostel nicht gut, anders als in vielen anderen Hostels. Auch wenn die Unterkunft relativ preisgünstig ist, entspricht der Preis nicht der Leistung. Es kam eher das Gefühl von "Geizwirtschaft" auf.

The kitchen could be maintained a lot more cleaner. Also the hostel does not have a card machine which can be quite difficult for someone who paid online through the website and reaches there to know that they have to pay the same amount in cash.

Basic but what more can you ask for.

Staff were great, helpful, and knowledgeable. The area is a bit far from town centre, but well-connected via trams and buses. Beds and lockers were great.

Tierisch laut

Nachts um 4 Uhr kamen mit ziemlichen Spektakel noch 2 Gäste in das 4-Bett-Zimmer...Zur Straße hin, kann man eigentlich nicht schlafen.

What a great location, in the middle of the center. Suite was enough for us to sleep and move in/out...Will definitely do this again!

Waschräume nicht klar gekennzeichnet — habe nur zwei für Frauen gesehen - wobei bei Einweisung etwas von Unisex erwähnt wurde. Im Frühstücksraum kein WLAN - vielleicht gewollt aber somit nur eine Stahlbank im Korridor zum hinsetzen - Mega schade Keine Stühle auf den Zimmern und daher nicht klar wo man die Sachen ablegen kann. Rest ok

Die Lage des Hostels war super, die Ausstattung, sowohl das Frühstück etc. war sehr schön gehändelt. Die Duschen waren allerdings etwas unsauber und das Wasser sammelte sich darin wie in einer Badewanne, ebenso die Toiletten, die Toilettenspülung war teilweise echt schwach

Wenn man für 2 Nächte bleibt ok. Leider konnte das Personal uns in Sachen öffenticher Nahverkehr überhaupt nicht helfen. Sehr traurig . Man hatte mir für die zusätzlichangefallene Gebühr ( Die man nur bar bezahlen konnte) eine Rechnung per e Mail versprochen, da der Drucker kaputt war. Auf die warte ich immer noch ! Fazit. Für einmal ok. Werden uns das nächste mal was Anderes suchen .

At the time of checkout, the Receptionist man was brushing his teeth. When he turned around to me, a drop of water from his "toothbrush" jumped to "my face !!!!". That was extremely unpleasant. Was that needed? Are you often brush your teeth while you are working?

Lovely environment from the hostel with a nice little breakfast. The showers and bathroom are a little bit old, but in a good state. Nice area for all sorts of different food nearby.
