The price is great, you get the surprise when you get there.The room is clean but the surroundings and the furnishings are absolutely terrible.In no way invites you to feel good.Because I was traveling with friends, it wasn't that wild.

Let's start with the fact that the hostel does not have a reception. You reserve a place in advance, then find it difficult to find it, go up to the 3rd floor and enter the PIN code that will be sent to you when booking. On the plus side, it has an interesting location, a center of debauchery and lust. Honestly, I didn't expect to live so close to the red light district; it was a surprise for me🤣The rooms are not bad, there is a kitchen, 2 separate rooms with two bathrooms and one shower.

As has also been mentioned here, the hotel (if this place can be called a hotel) is just a disappointment and a loss of money.I reserved a room for 3 people in mid-July. Unfortunately, when we arrived in Nuremberg we couldn't find the hotel. (we found a strip club). However, this is not explained on the website, which I find very disappointing. There was no reception, no one from the hotel.That doesn't guarantee me any safety at all, especially when I'm traveling with my mom, who is 60 years old.The next day I tried to contact the hotel to get a refund of the money and unfortunately I didn't get a response.But the first thing I did was call Booking because that was how I reserved “the hotel” and they didn’t help.

As other commenters have already written, the hotel is in the red light district. This wouldn't have bothered us. The room was simply furnished but clean. But what made staying impossible was the noise. There was music, screams (boxing match), just noise coming from the strip joint, from the other rooms as well as from outside, which made it impossible to sleep. Since my only requirement for a hotel room is to be able to sleep, the place did not meet my requirement in any way. We switched to another hotel on the first night, which was a very good decision.

An excellent hostel for a reasonable price. There will be a strip bar below you. And you can fall asleep to the noise of the heights if you came with friends and made it worse all evening😎🕺💃
