The location is excellent, and it's among the cheapest options in Köln, but the rooms do not even provide soaps, you have to pay for a towel, and rent a hair dryer from the reception.

Beds are comfortable, staff is knowledgeable and friendly, excellent location near the central station, walking distance to the cathedral, many shops and restaurants. The hostel is huge, has a beautiful courtyard, a second floor work space, a well stocked kitchen with several cook stations, and a pretty decent breakfast with lots of options. I’ve stayed twice and made life long friends here.It’s my go to spot in western Europe.

Had a one night stay at the hostel and the experience was great. It’s located right next to The Central station so it’s very easy to reach. The kitchen and the common areas are huge. And I like that the room has its own showers and bathrooms. However, the wifi connectivity should be improved.

Great hostel. Clean and rooms are comfortable. Good proximity to main railway station. Friendly staff but never had need to ask for much tourist info so don't know what they could provide. They need a better toaster for breakfast time. Free tea and coffee would be good ☺️.
