I had a mixed experience at this hostel. On one hand, the staff, apart from one person, were really nice and the facilities were pretty good. On the other, my room was in poor condition, particularly in terms of cleanliness and ventilation, which was really disappointing. The location is a real plus, being very close to the central station.

The hotel is conveniently located just a short walk from the Hauptbahnhof, making it great for travelers. The rooms are basic but decent, though cleanliness could be a concern, and I found a used tissue in the bathroom. The chaotic atmosphere and distracted staff left a lot to be desired. It’s a decent choice for a one-night stay if you're just passing through, but not much more than that.

I had a mixed experience at this hostel. The room I stayed in was big and cozy, which helped me rest after a long trip. However, it was often noisy due to the echoing corridors and groups of children. Overall, while I appreciated the comfort of the bed and the spaciousness, the loud environment made it difficult to relax.
