Still at the top of my list!

First thing to expect at the hostel is to be welcomed with a tour of the facilities and house rules. The hostel left me a very good impression of the German standard. They wipe and vacuum every single inch of the room and facilities daily, especially the restroom. Thumbs up for the Housekeepers! And forget not Ivy, our very own Hostel Canine Ambassador!

Quand je réserve un dortoir pour 25€, je ne m’attends pas à grande chose. Mais ici l’hôtel est délabré dès l’entrée. On m’indique une chambre miteuse (j’avais réservé l’option lit en dortoir de 40m2, ici il y avait 3*2 lits superposés dans une pièce de max 15m2), qui tout comme la salle commune sentait à la fois la transpiration (passe encore) mais également le tabac et le cannabis. Les deux sont interdits en intérieur et le dernier est carrément illégal. Ça ne semblait gêner nullement les 3 occupants de la chambre, qui paraissaient bien installés depuis quelque temps et bien s’entendre avec le patron. De plus les draps de 3 lits vacants avaient une couleur passée suspecte au niveau de la propreté. Bref devant ce manque d’hygiène évident dans l’hébergement, ayant peur de tomber malade, et la certitude de ne pas pouvoir dormir avec une pareille odeur, j’ai préféré dormir dans ma voiture, par 8°C.

Surprenant mais plutôt un bon souvenir.

Ambiance sympathique. Adapté plutôt pour les jeunes.On peut faire la cuisine. Si on a pas peur de dormir en dortoir, alors OK.

Werde wiederkommen

Lage zur Innenstadt war gut, das Zimmer ebenso. Die Betten sind eher weich, jedoch alles vorhanden für einen relativ guten Schlaf (störend die vielen Züge nachts). Dusche und WC sind sauber und gut. Den Gemeinschaftsraum habe ich nicht genutzt und hat mich jetzt auch nicht soo überzeugt (Küche mit genutztem Geschirr etc.)
