The thing is, if you compare it to hostels across the world, this one will seem bad. But in the Freiburg context, it is reasonable, given every place else seems to be much more expensive. Location is about 20 min walk from train station but it's easy to catch a tram to get to/from hostel, and it's right in the... More

I stayed here for one night in august 2011 and I'll not go here again. The staff was mostly friendly, although some of them had a bad attitude when you wanted to ask them something. The showers looked weird and was not private ones. We did not use them. You also had to pay extra for the pillow and bed... More

I just slept there one night, but it was enough for not repeating this again. I paid 18 e for a bed in a room with another 7 beds. if you want blankets, sheet and pillow you can rent them. I am totally against this, so I didnt rent. I prefferes to sleep dressed in my street clothes, than to... More

The place was about a 20+ minute walk from train station. Price was 17+4(sheets)=21.was in room #2 with 10 other beds. Bedding was clean. Kitchen was fairly clean, but I saw three spiders on my bed while laying. Staff was friendly.kitchen was sort of a mess with dishes piled up. My biggest disapointment was the friendliess of other customers. No... More

Myself and a friend stayed here in September of 2011 and keep meaning to write a review. This hostel was the best place we stayed in whilst we were inter railing, we stayed for 5 days. We went at a particularly busy time as the university students were there while they tried to find houses to stay in at uni,... More

Overall very disapointing. Staff seemed irritated by the presence of guests and were repeatedly rude and unhelpful, which ruined the atmosphere of an otherwise ok hostel. The facilities include a large common room, well equiped with comfortable areas and a table tennis table, which was the only saving grace about the experience! There is a large communal kitchen, but don't... More

I don't really understand all of the really low reviews on this hostel. My husband and I were backpacking through Freiburg and stayed here one night and thought it was a unique place! It was very clean and the space age showers were really cool. The main dorm was huge, however, so hard to find privacy with the next person... More

On the plus side it is within walking distance of many attractions, including the Black Forest. Also nice way to save money since there is a kitchen. On the downside it is next to impossible to get your laundry done, and my roommates have had some trouble with how it was done and so I am not overly disappointed that... More

Overall irritating experience. Most of the staff seemed irritated by our presence (group of students), and one older staff lady was quite rude, frequently, telling us to clean up after other people, to be quiet when we were being quiet, and threw out some of our food even though it was labeled properly. They have one laundry drying machine that... More
