Stay it this hostel was one of the best experiences with hostels. It is located in good neighbourhood. You don’t communicate with anyone everything is working with PIN code. You have pretty big room to yourself with fridge and mirror. Showers are needed to get used to but that’s fine) A lot people wrote about bad mattress but it was really good! But if you are higher then 1,77m it is gonna be a bit uncomfortable. Also there was written that you can hear everything that happens outside your room but it’s more silent than more hostels and even hotels😅 Felt really comfortable with cameras around hostel and slept well cuz there is no strangers allowed in it’s.

Stayed here before and after the festival. The staff were extremely helpful and friendly with all the questions and requests that I had, specially being my first time in Germany, Europe. The room was very clean and comfy. The buffet breakfast was amazing, super tasty fresh food to prepare and to recover from strong heavy-metal-ling 🤘

This is a review of room 7. There is no reception and a pin code to the door is sent to you 1 hour before check in. The information sent on how the digital locks work is thorough and very clear. First impressions: immaculately clean and tidy. The room is small and has all that one needs. There is a little kitchenette in the room with a sink, two electric hobs, a fridge and, best of all, a kettle. The shower in the shower room works fine and has adequate pressure and temperature. Towels were provided. There are radiators in the room and the shower room that work and provide plenty of heat. The WC is not in the room but just outside the door and was spotlessly clean. I did not find it a problem that the WC was outside the room. It was always available when I needed to use it, just 2 steps outside of the room. The security to the entire place was thorough and I felt safe.

It has everything you could need for a relaxing stay. The bed mattress and pillows were super comfy. The area itself is very quiet while only a short walk to the main train station. The online self-checkin was a breeze.

Looking for a hostel?

Budget travellers know that there is no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a bit more.

Hostel is in a great location, easy to go around Hamburg with some cool bars, cafés and restaurants around it. Staff was lovely and helpful. Showers were good, but the showerhead didn't have a high holder attached to the wall, so I had to hold it up to be able to wash my hair. Kitchen is well equipped.

The location was perfect. Rooms and beds were clean. Moreover, I didn't hear even a single squeak from the bunk bed. Breakfast was extraordinary. I have never seen so many varieties for breakfast in any youth hostel before. There were sockets even in the lockers. No need for padlock. There was combination on lockers. No deposite for the key cards. Definetely everything was so perfect.
