Beautiful building, decently maintained. Fantastic location that allowed me to quickly head over to the station for a 6 AM train. The washing machine was quite expensive (8 euros!), but I gather this is the norm among European hostels. From my experience there weren't a ton of people gathering in the common space, so it wasn't a great place for meeting people.

The hotel is not a hotel, was more hostel, to many people always around smoking weed so even I paid for a week I booked in order hotel near by. So if you are a millennial or a zoomer this is your place. But for me was a really wrong decision

Building was very unique and room was comfortable and quiet. We could walk to restaurants and shopping, as well as take the tram to other neighborhoods. Franceska and Markus (not sure of the spelling!) were very friendly and helpful!

Location is great and central, staff is lovely, building is a tiny bit on the older side and therefore yes, there will be noise at night (not soundproof), which is to be expected in a hostel though. :)
