Very good and inexpensive buffet, with a very plentiful and varied selection for vegetarians and vegans too! For breakfast there are rolls and boiled eggs or at least something made from fresh eggs. Orange or breakfast juice and various jams are also available. The chef shows a lot of skill and creativity and is very polite and friendly!Anyone who is friendly here and behaves according to the youth hostel rules (e.g. wiping the table after eating and putting the dishes back) will always receive a second helping.The dining room can be separated and expanded with a sliding door and you can sit on the covered terrace with a good view.

Rooms are clean and the bed is comfortable, even if you have to make the bed yourself. Location at the same height as the castle. Great view but you have to get up high first. Staff consistently friendly and accommodating! What annoyed me, however, is that in order to take a warm shower for 3 minutes, you have to waste 30 minutes of water. This should NOT be the case in a house that is organic and eco-friendly, as it is an extreme waste of resources! Since I didn't want to wait that long, I decided not to shower, despite the sweat. Finally, the food, sufficient and nutritious. Thank the chef, yes, there is another one here.......

The JH is beautifully located and offers a great view of the surrounding area. The staff is reasonably friendly. All rooms are functionally furnished, but very cold. The heating only works partially and urgently needs to be vented. The night lights in the room didn't work, nor did the cell phone charger by the bed. The mattresses are a real disaster.The water at the sinks came at low pressure and unfortunately didn't get very warm. It was the same in the shower room. There are no partitions between the showers; you can only shower together with other guests present and offer no privacy whatsoever. The sanitary facilities and the rooms were very clean. Unfortunately, the machines in the hallway (snacks, drinks) were completely empty.The breakfast was rich and varied. However, breakfast time is limited to one hour from 8:00 a.m. to 9:00 a.m.The youth hostel is certainly in urgent need of an overhaul from an ecological perspective.Unfortunately, it was not possible for me to arrive and feel comfortable here.
