Alles war in Ordnung. Netter Empfang. Saubere Räume. Reichhaltiges Frühstücksbüffet. Nur: In einer neuen Unterkunft und zum Hotelpreis von 100 Euro erwarte ich nicht, dass man auf einer Holzplatte im Bettgestell schlafen muss. Also: kein Lattenrost, sondern: Dünne Matratze auf Platte. Für Seitenschläfer der Leute mit normalem Rücken unbequem. Die Anmerkungen früherer Bewertungen stimmen leider und getan hat sich nichts, trotz der Einlassungen der Betreiber. Wirklich schade, denn als Familie ist man in der freundlichen Einrichtung ansonsten gut aufgehoben.

Eigentlich eine tolle Unterkunft…

Die Jugendherberge befindet sich in sehr gutem und sauberem Zustand, auch das Personal war sehr freundlich. Es gibt einen Kaffeeautomaten mit diversen frisch zubereitbaren Kaffeevariationen und ebenso findet man eine kleine Auswahl alkoholischer Getränke (Wein, Bier), welche hinter der Empfangstheke angeboten werden (und natürlich nur an Erwachsene verkauft werden). Ebenso sehr gut ist die Lage, v.a. zur Universität. Allerdings, es tut mir wirklich leid, das sagen zu müssen, habe ich wirklich noch nie auf solch extrem unbequemen und harten Matratzen gelegen - ein Gefühl wie mit dünner Isomatte direkt auf dem Boden-, was meine Schlafqualität und mein Tagesbefinden (Kreuzschmerzen) leider stark negativ beeinflusst hat. Daher könnte ich diese Unterkunft leider kein zweites Mal wählen.

Wegen zusätzlichen Gebühren war die Übernachtung zu teuer und man musste noch die Betten über- und am Morgen abziehen. Das Personal an der reception war extrem höflich ( die mussten schließlich noch in Preis nicht angekündigten Gebühren kassieren) während die Frau im Büro war sehr unfreundlich! Durch die geöffnete Tür hat sie das Geschehen an der Theke überwacht. Und natürlich laut, das ist auch Jugendherberge!

75€/night and you need to make your own bed?

Please beware this is not a hotel but some sort of youth hostel. YOU have to make your own bed. There are no towels or soap in the toilet. No furniture either. No Wi-Fi in the room. Upon check-in you are requested to buy a membership card to be able to use the room that you have already paid. This wasn't mentioned ANYWHERE in the booking. The fire alarm went off for over an hour and nobody came to either check to see if the hotel was literally on fire or simply turn it off. Needless to say, IT WAS LOUD. Breakfast was quite good though and parking is available for free. Circa 45 min away from city center. The receptionist was pretty rude.

Erholsame kleine Auszeit

Außer den doch sehr harten Betten und einer fehlenden Ablagemöglichkeit für getragene Kleidung haben wir wirklich gar nichts zu beanstanden. Eine vorhandene Nische könnte leicht mit einem kleinen Regal oder auch nur einer Kleiderstange ausgestattet werden. Die Innenstadt ist fußläufig gut erreichbar und die Umgebung bietet Freizeitmöglichkeiten satt. Die Jugendherberge selbst war ein sehr angenehmer Aufenthaltsort für unseren Kurztrip.
