8/10 Good

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service
Die Jugendherberge wurde vor einer Woche eröffnet. Noch ist einiges nicht vollständig installiert. Die Umgebungsarbeiten beginnen morgens um 06 Uhr sehr geräuschvoll. Die Zimmer sind geräumig. Für (Durch)Reisende ist ideal gelegen; der Hauptbahnhof und Flughafen sind, mit ÖV, rund 15 Minuten entfernt. Entsprechend ist die Umgebung recht laut.
