27 December 2010 Customer would recommend this property

Liked: Clean rooms and bathrooms, friendly staff, comfortable, good facilities, excellent value for money.

Disliked: The hostel was about a 30 minute walk to the centre of town, but only a couple of Ubahn stops and close to 2 Ubahn lines so is not in the centre of town but this was not a major problem for us.

Liked: generally acceptable, staff are helpful, good value chain hostel, despite of the distance from Hauptbahnhof.

Disliked: smoking seems to be permitted inside of the building in germany, so the bar is full of smoke. So is the guest kichen, the smell is unpleasant.

Liked: Very clean, nice atmosphere and location

Disliked: Staff were not very able persons. They gave us one room that was being used by other people. Then transferred us to another room but we didn´t have towels and there was a lot of noise from the elevator. Wi-fi not in the rooms, only at the bar Breakfast quite expensive (4.5 E) and not very tasty
