We were here for a seminar for 5 days and were looked after very kindly and warmly. There are many leisure activities available, such as table football, community games or table tennis. The seminar room was also well equipped. There is a large spacious terrace and the view from the hostel is very beautiful, especially in autumn. The rooms are also nice and totally up to the standard of youth hostels. Unfortunately there is hardly any storage space. But there is your own sink in the room

It's okay, but we slept in a room with mold on the walls. That's really not great at all, especially a disaster for your health

Solid, original youth hostel. Very nice staff, clean rooms and sanitary facilities.Good and plentiful food.The location is great.You should only take a multiple socket with you :).Thank you very much, we will definitely come back!

Lunch ice cold. Dinner was warm but subpar. I also had stomach pain afterwards. No way to lock the room. WiFi is far too bad to hold a seminar that requires internet. 5 toilets for the entire youth hostel. Also only 6 parking spaces for the youth hostel. Everyone else has to park on the street in front. Additionally, the rooms were not cleaned well. The beds are also too small for people over 1.80

Unfortunately our booked rehearsal room was occupied. So we had to rehearse in the dining room. The situation was very chaotic as all the guests came into the dining room to get drinks. The rooms could only be occupied at midday, although it had been agreed otherwise. Afterwards some of the rooms were locked and no keys were available. Service was very needy! The dinner was cold and not enough for the number of people booked. Parking situation 👎Unfortunately, all in all, no recommendation.

Unfriendly staff, bad food and ants on the tables every day! There were entire streets of ants under the chairs that were set up on the table & one day there was nothing at all, another day there was no notice when there was food and then our 6 children didn't get any food because we were 15 minutes late but we would just said in an unfriendly tone; that there is no more food and no accommodation

Everyone was super nice. The kitchen is perfect, if something was empty, it is immediately refilled. We'd love to come back

Solid. Were in transit with a stop in LEGO Land (~ 40 min. drive time) from there.Blaubeuren as a small town is recommended, as is the Blautopf. We will definitely come here again to hike.The room and bathroom were extremely clean. All employees very friendly and helpful. Breakfast rich. Unfortunately there are few bread alternatives and baked rolls, but still a wide range overall.Shortcoming:Only one socket in the four-bed room from the days when one was sufficient for a razor or hairdryer at the sink, unfortunately not enough these days with around one device per person and all-day excursions.WiFi only free 2x 60 minutes a day. This wasn't pointed out at the beginning. It wasn't relevant to us either, so I'll just mention it briefly here.A toilet in the hallway. Unfortunately not separated by gender. Difficult for my prepubescent child.A total of only 6 parking spaces in front of the JH. You can stop there briefly to load and unload. After a long trip, you have to drag children and backpacks from the parking lot to the JH for a while. Everything is possible, some information would have been helpful in advance.

Very bad rooms, moldy showers, almost no space in the showers, way too expensive for what you get.

We were in the Juhe with a school class. The food is great, especially the salad buffet. The staff is consistently very friendly and accommodating. Conference room 3 has great technology for a film screening and a disco evening. Gladly again.

Very solid youth hostel, breakfast was great, the location to the center was great. If you stay overnight in a youth hostel, you also have to be clear that you will not be entering a clean room, even if the rooms and sanitary facilities are very clean. All in all, highly recommended.

We are currently on site with 30 children (children's choir) for 3 days!It's just great!The rooms are spotlessly clean, not a single speck of dust to be found!!!The staff is very accommodating and every wish is met. There is a solution for every problem!Children can just be children.The house is a bit old but is lovingly maintained!The hostel father is a force!!!Many greetings from the Liederkranz Walddorf children's choir!
