    It is a bit far from the center, but a walkable distance.

    Everything necessary for a short stay was provided. The directions were very precise and clear.

    I have never been to a hostel that opened at 16.00. everywhere else in Europe you would be able to leave your luggage until check in.

    I get it that the restaurant below runs the hotel, but check-in at 16:00 is a little late, We wanted to get in the restaurant to sit there because we arrived earlier (15:30) but they don't even unlock the front gate before 16:00. It's a bit not nice when people arrive earlier and have to walk around with their luggage until they would be kind enough to open the restaurant.. (sitting there for half an hour would also help btw)

    The room was clean and comfy.

    It was a bit cold in the room as the windows are not that great. Blankets are thin and I was freezing a bit. Also, there were no sockets close to our beds.

    This was my first stay at a hostel and I was very much satisfied! I was worried about having way too many people around, facilities, noise and the overall vibe but everything went very well. There was only one person with us in the room (8-beds room), facilities and beds were totally ok! It also was very quiet in the building so it was not what I expected, my expectations were much lower :) I also saw lockers for those who need them.

    A decent enough stay in a German Altbau with charming wooden stairs for daily cardio
    • Business trip
    • Solo traveller
    • Bed in 6-Bed Mixed Dormitory Room
    • Stayed 3 nights

    The rooms are on the upper levels and it's a complete walk-up in an old, charming building with charming winding wooden staircase. If you have a large or heavy luggage that's NOT strapped to your back, then prepare to swear and sweat all the way to your bed🤣 No commons areas outside of the separate restaurant downstairs and no communal kitchen.

    It was a decent stay -- nothing amounting to the glorious reviews of others -- and the staff were very helpful in communicating public transit directions over the phone! The hostel was super quiet and the WiFi, fast and reliable. I also appreciated that a towel was included with bed linen, and the showers were deliciously hot.

    no kitchen, no hostel vibe - its a building attached to a restaurant so check-in is done at the bar and the hostel is a building with a few rooms.

    Lack of a microwave to heat up water for coffee in the morning. This was the only disappointment I experienced there. You will have to go outside into the retail reality only a couple of blocks away. There are stores nearby, primarily take-out/restaurants, and a few supermarket type stores, notably a Denns BioMarket, which sells a decent fresh ground cup of coffee for €1.50. P.S. lockers in the room I stayed in should be larger and stronger. The locker is too narrow to easily put a bag inside its space, had to squeeze the bag in and the bag is only 12" wide.

    Generally positive. The bunk bed was ok. The room's air quality ok. I slept well there. The door security system, street side entry door and the bunk room door very good. No problem using the numeric key codes to gain access. 24 hr Bldg açcess Surrounding neighborhood ok, nice park at the corner, a Leipzig commonly expressed attribute. Fortunately the hostel's restaurant/bar area is separate from the hostel accommodations. . Very laid back hostel management attitude, an attitude based on trust between mgmt and the client.
