The youth hostel is simply beautifully located.What should be highlighted is the very tasty food. It's rare that we get full vegetarian replacement meals (and not just the main course for everyone where the meat is simply left out). Breakfast was also perfect. Kudos to the chef!We will be back :-)

We were with several friends the entire weekend, it was great! We knew the youth hostel from before and are glad that it has retained its charm. The staff was super friendly and accommodating, and a special thank you to the boss. The hostel is in a great location, a place to relax, unwind, hike, be out with friends,... We will definitely be back.

Well the food wasn't great, just canteen food that was delivered. Cooking yourself would be better. Drinks selection is very poor. There was mold in our room, there were cobwebs and small creatures in the corners. Beds need to be renovated, the whole house "from the inside". I think it's good that you have to make the beds yourself, but it was too complicated because the room was too small. The showers downstairs smelled very bad. We preferred to go upstairs where the showers were a little better. The staff in the candy store were very unfriendly because we bought too much and were then not allowed to buy anything else "but that's my business where and how I spend my money". The hiking trails are cool! The internet is simply poor because if too many people use the internet then the WiFi crashes completely. What I thought was good was that you could play very well in the forest. The playground was cool 😎, but the seesaw there, the seats are made of metal and very uncomfortable. I wouldn't stay at this place again. Nils 12 years
