Only 200 metres from the station and close to the city centre. Some people might not like the communal showers but otherwise excellent

Really helpful staff and good beds! Breakfast is ok, but to my taste the cereal bowls were too small. The coffee mugs held more. When I come to Leipzig again, I'm likely to try to book at this place. Thank you for a nice stay :-)

Literally in the middle of the "ghetto" of Leipzig, but for a ghetto, it was incredibly safe feeling! The rooms are big, the beds are comfortable, but the pillow I had was just a bag of lumps, very uncomfortable. Also, the Straßenbahn tracks were right outside the front of the building, and they ran the entire night, and were VERY loud, so we closed the windows, but then the temperature in the room skyrocketed.

Basic accommodation, but good value for money. Good location (very close to Hauptbahnhof), a nice old (somewhat Communist) style of building but you get more than what you pay for. A comfortable bed and clean room guaranteed a very nice sleep for me.

Owner Comment (Show)
thank you for your comment! as you can see from our ratings, 85% of our guests feel safe (after your extremely poor rating, it was more before)...lockers are on each floor and bags can be left at reception if one has checked out already. we are sorry that you felt unsecure with that - and we are really sad that you left such a very bad rating due to one fact only. we hope for other hostels that your next rating might be an objective one!

It's conveniently located at a mere stone's throw away from the Main Central Station, so that's a plus. The staff are very friendly and eager to help you. There's a courtyard outside where you can either eat, drink a beer or smoke, it's big and well equipped with chairs and tables. The rooms are okay, although there can be somewhat noisy if you get a room that faces the street - the tram streetcars can be noisy at night and in the morning. Aside from that it's a nice place to stay in Leipzig.
