Nicht so empfehlenswert.

Nun ja, es ist ein schimmliges Kellerloch mit nur 2 Bädern für alle…. Recht ungeliebt alles. Sehr dreckig überall. Immerhin war die Bettwäsche okay. Auch wenn es günstig ist, geputzt werden kann..

Leider nicht noch einmal.

Ich habe die Unterkunft nach wenigen Stunden verlassen und mir eine weitere Unterkunft gesucht. Bzgl. des Wunsches aus gesundheitlichen Gründen ein Bett unten im Etagenbett zu erhalten, musste ich extra bezahlen. Zudem fielen weitere Kosten für Bettwäsche an. Die Bettunterlage war mit Blutflecken versehen. Handtücher gab es nicht. Die Mitarbeiter waren jedoch freundlich.

チェックイン時間ギリギリに行ったにも関わらず、スタッフのお兄さんがフレンドリーに対応していただきました。話し始めると長いですが、チョコも頂いて満足です。2人で行ったのですが、平日だったこともあり、まるまる一部屋を2人で使わせてもらえました。

Worst hostel that I ever stay

This hostel is very bad, no safety because everybody can come in the room, I didn’t get the key or keycard, have just 2 bathrooms and very small. And if you want to check-in after 9pm you have to pay 5€.

Great location for fair budget

This hostel is small and packed. The only thing that is good is the location. S-bahn station Konigstrasse just across the road and 10 minutes to the center. However, it also means that the train running underground will shake your room (not quite disturbing for me). Talking about the hostel itself, I have see worse in terms of hostel. Just don't expect the good quality. The hostel itself is pretty worn out, but still fine. The shower is quite ok. The service is not something that I can praise. Their check in hour start from 1pm, but I have been waited for 1.5 hrs for the host. (probably because they have a party the night before). But I guess it should be fine as the staff are friendly afterwards. BTW their WIFI is the best hostel wifi I have ever seen *Expect to pay 3 Euros a day per person for the beddings
