I would gladly stay there again. It was very clean and the staff very friendly. There are lots of good pubs nearby to eat and drink in.

staff were very helpful, there was a toilet "issue" at one stage but this was sorted immediately when we mentioned it. Breakfast is basic, but inexpensive. Decent Hostel, a few tram stops from the centre. Beds could do with a bit more padding!!

On the hostel world is indicated that breakfast is included but in reality it is not. I do not understand why I had to pay 20 EUR where on the internet was indicated 17,5 EUR. Hostel in the middle of nowhere... At least it was clean.   Read Owner Comments

Staff was amazing, super friendly, kitchen was clean and fully accessorized, nice relaxed atmosphere. If your a walker you'll have no trouble walking to the center, if not the U-Bahn station is just outside. would absolutely recommend it.

I thought this was an excellent hostel. The rooms were really cleaen and the bathroom faciities, while a bit small, were also clean and really good. The bar downstairs was great its just a shame there wasnt many people there when I stayed as there wasnt much atmosphere. But its in a decent location, not too far out from the centre. Definately recommend it.

I was there in early October. I didn't really encounter a single English-speaking tourist, so it was a little on the lonely side. However it was nice to have a cafe downstairs that served very affordable beer and coffee. The hostel is a half hour walk from Hbf, but very easy to get to via U-bahn (although it saves little time, so should be taken when you have heavy bags, mainly). Decent night life around the hostel; but not spectacular. I think the hostel charged me too much.

This hostel is inside an old building. Had a sink in our room but no hot water just cold.
