It's literally on the wrong side of the tracks, but that's not a big deal. It is still within walking distance of the train station, and there is a regular bus that stops right outside the hotel. Otherwise, it's a 'no frills' a&o ho(s)tel that does the job for a night or two.

Das Frühstück war lecker und vielseitig, es gab frische Pancakes, verschiedene Sorten Brötchen und auch Toast. Es gab eine Auswahl an Müsli, Obst und Eier. Der Kaffeevollautomat bot für alle ein gutes Getränk für den Einstieg in den Tag (heißes Wasser und Tee, Kakao, Crema, Milchkaffee) und es gab sogar Hafermilch. Das Zimmer ließ keine Wünsche übrig - Bett und solides Bad, was man halt braucht. Unten sogar mit Bar und Billard, das war sehr nett.

Besværlig elektronisk indtjekning

Selv om indtjekningen skulle være smart ved at ske på mobiltelefonen, blev den vanvittig besværlig. Hotellet havde desuden forsømt at sende mig en indtjekningsformular forud. Det kunne have hjulpet noget.

Das Hostel ist etwas in die Jahre gekommen. Es dürfte gerne investiert werden. Die Mehrbettzimmer sind zu klein, da keine Schränke oder anderweitige Ablagemöglichkeiten gegeben sind. Die Mitarbeiter sind sehr freundlich und bemüht.
