Ferie i Ribe

Meget venligt og hjælpsomt personale. Helt fantastisk morgenmad. Det negative at lyset tændte automatisk i gang og på toilettet. Generede for den, som man delte værelse med om natten og også for en selv, når man skulle op og tisse og ikke havde lyst til at vågne af den grund

Location is fantastic! View across a meadow to the 1000 year old harbor and historic Ribe with the cathedral towering above it all. Somewhat basic accommodations, but everything was sparkling clean and worked. And the breakfast was delicious and very well stocked.

False advertising

False advertising. In the pics on the website, there is a climbing gym & a pool. We has access to none of them. They said you have to be a member to visit those places. Place is clean & nice. You need your own linens or u can rent them...which is weird. Why would someone travel with linens? Location is great.

Hostel, but too expensive.

I couldn't use their pillow, because of its smell. And one has to pay the same amount as the date rate for towel and linen.

Great value

This hostel is located in an old naval school from 1916 and converted to hostel in 1979. The rooms are spartan but so is the price. Breakfast is largely homemade and worth the extra money. For a small fee you can grab what you want from the breakfast buffet and make your own lunch pack to go.

Tjae, ikke sikkert jeg kommer igen.

Fornuftigt værelse der var rent og pænt. Morgenmaden var kedelig med meget tørt brød og helt kolde blødkogte æg, som virkede til at komme direkte fra køleskabet. Mindre mørkt aktivitetsrum med de værste toiletter. Der var afføring på gulv og brættet og virkede til de ikke var rengjort i evigheder. Hvis man bare skal sove der, er det ok. Vil ikke spise der eller bruge fællesrum.

Det bedste vandrehjem vi har været på

Vi syntes, at vandrehjemmet lå intet mindre end perfekt i gåafstand til Ribe midt by. Ligeledes var udsigten fra værelset helt enestående, til Ribe Domkirke, byens huse og åen. Vi kommer gerne igen.
