Best hostel I've ever stayed in - great value for

Excellent location. Super friendly and helpful staff. Private room was basic but comfortable with a quirky design. Shared bathrooms faultlessly clean. Very cool micro-brewery in the basement with a shrine to the Hoff. Highly recommend the free walking tour that picks up at the hostel well worth it!

Ea wurde an alles gedacht und ich war sehr zufrieden. Leider funktionierte der USB-Ladeanschluss und Lichtschalter nicht. Zimmer 312, Bett ganz rechts oben.

Super schöne Unterkunft und tolles Personal. Hatte 2 Nächte gebucht - musste nach 1 Nacht das Zimmer wechseln, was natürlich nicht ideal war, da ich deswegen ein bisschen unplanen musste… Dafür erhielt ich gratis Frühstück.

Schönes Hostel in der Nähe des Zentrums. Personal war freundlich. In der Nacht war es ziemlich laut.

Städtetrip

Wir waren für vier Nächte im Circushotel und hatten eine sehr guten Aufenthalt. Das Zimmer war nicht riesig aber es bot genug Platz für uns und unsere Einkäufe. Es sind helle Zimmer dank den tollen grossen Fenstern. Für einen minimalen Aufpreis konnten wir jeden Morgen gemütlich und gut frühstücken in einem angenehm eingerichteten Cafe. Auch die Lage des Hostels ist wirklich super, man ist super verbunden. Ich kann dieses Hostel nur weiter empfehlen und freue mich auf meinen nächstens Aufenthalt dort.
