So we were there with our choir so everything was great, the food was good, the environment but also the facilities were great. The only thing that bothered me was that the blankets were a bit short but otherwise it was great. I would go there again and again, and btw the pillows were So great, I've never had such comfortable pillows in a youth hostel. Oh, there was something else that bothered me a bit: the showers, i.e. the ones in the shared bathrooms, took a long time to get warm, meaning you first had to take a cold shower for 2 minutes until the warm water was finally there, but otherwise it was great

For many years we have been going to this great youth hostel for our rehearsal weekends as an orchestra. The kitchen feeds us extremely well. There is very, very varied food at all meals. One evening we order a barbecue dinner for a small extra charge, which we eat in the barbecue hut on site. There are also very tasty alternatives for vegetarians. On the premises there is also a hot tub, children's playground, sports field, table tennis and plenty of space to move around. There is a large and a small dining room in the house. In the basement there are further rooms and another table tennis table.The boss and the team are very nice and open to many requests.

Went there overnight for a class reunion. A lot of effort was put into making it a good day. The food was okay as was the breakfast. The youth hostel rooms are fair and clean. We even had our own bathroom. So everything is fine.

I came by on my bike and - even though I wasn't a guest - I was allowed to fill up my water bottle. Thank you again for that.
