Friendly and helpful staff. Beautiful view of the Rhine from my balcony. Simple but tasty breakfast. Generally, quiet but the heavy doors and lock mechanisms were a little intrusive with guests coming and going. But overall, a wonderful place to stay. Highly recommended.

A really nice and friendly hostel
I had a great stay there. Staff is really nice and the breakfast was delicious. Everything was clean. The hostel's a little bit far from the city center, but there's a subway stop extremely close to it.
