I felt very comfortable in this hostel, the location is great right on the Iller, from there you can go hiking or cycling. The bedrooms (small sleeping hut) are rustic but adequately equipped, with WiFi and sockets. You should book it with breakfast as it is very varied and there is also table service 👌🏻🌻

We were cycling on the Lake Constance-Königssee cycle path. The accommodation is right on the bike path and we really liked it. At first we were skeptical because of the name hostel, but we were very positively surprised. It was quiet, clean, its own very clean and good bathroom... perfect.

Super nice staff, loving breakfast (handmade, freshly prepared, many hotels can learn from this!) and very clean, modern and well-equipped rooms. We'll be back when we're in the area again!

Great host, friendly and accommodating, it couldn't be better. Everything clean and tidy. Breakfast rich and tasty. The concept behind the hostel is actually great and funny, but in our opinion the little boxes for sleeping are too small, so the air becomes stuffy very quickly because the boxes are only ventilated. Too little for 2 adults. Extra windows should be installed here that could be opened. Otherwise you can't do anything wrong here. Maybe we'll come back again.

We were surprised by bad weather on the Lake Constance Königsee cycle path. Despite the triathlon taking place on the weekend. We were able to find accommodation nearby, very friendly operators and very committed. We felt very comfortable. Thanks.
