We went to this hostel in the summer after having visited the Rhein falls. Located 15 mins walking from the center of Stein am Rhein, we were disappointed by the services offered by this hostel knowing the price of a room and the parking. …

The hostel itself was nice. However the landlord wasn't really polite, he showed us the stinky finger and was quite pissed of everything. Never again!!
