I am very satisfied, the owner saved us from an uncomfortable night at the train station, the breakfast was delicious. Sleeping option was also very satisfactory, even with its own shower and toilet. Owner Sven recommends very good activities that you can do in the area.

We (a couple) stayed for 5 nights with our dog in a private room.Very well located. A good base point for hiking in the area, as it is a short walk away from the train station and buses. Edeka and ATM also short walking distance away.The facility is clean. The kitchen very well equipt.The host Sven was super friendly, helpful and available to answer questions. His little poodle Brunhilde only adds to the coziness of the place.The place is also involved in the important work of assisting refugees from the ukraine.Good value for money. Recommended!

I've really never experienced anything so bad. Please keep your distance from this hostel. We were treated like dirt on the phone regarding a few questions about hygiene regulations. There was nothing about this on the website at all. You can already mention that only 2G applies. I wouldn't recommend this hotel to anyone. Bad customer service. Unfortunately I can't give 0 stars.
