I have to give one star, it's for the size of the room. I didn't feel comfortable and can't recommend it at all.The first impression when you enter the entrance area: It stinks and is dirty. I didn't get any information on how to get in in the evening, luckily someone was just coming out. But things didn't get any better in the room. It's dirty, the photos are attached. It's a good thing I didn't look at the mattresses before my night, otherwise I certainly wouldn't have slept there. I didn't want to use the stove like that, the walls are dirty, the bedside tables, for example, were dirty and partly broken, etc. At night it was very loud in the hallway. I don't have anything more to say about this hostel.

Is currently accommodation for Ukrainian refugees as of 08/2023. Night rest is largely not observed. The beds are worn out and broken. There was still food in the fridge from the previous guest. The shower cannot be closed properly and the ventilation works but it doesn't help.The bathroom and bedroom are clean and cleaned regularly.

3-4 stars. In principle everything worked. Location is okay, 15 minutes by bike from the cathedral.Uncomplicated check in! Cleaning takes place every two days.With a few little things the whole thing could be upgraded significantly (new toilet brush, hook or shelf in the bathroom, more kitchen equipment such as additional forks or spoons)
