Det är ett hostel så inte jämförbart med ett hotell, men okey att sova över för en natt eller 2. Service något begränsad då receptionen bara är öppen några timmar morgon och kväll. Dock finns möjlighet till kaffe och te hela dygnet. Enkel standard i rum och allmänna utrymmen. Frukost dock helt okey.

Zimmer in der Jugendherberge mit eigenem Bad. Das Frühstück ist etwas spartanisch.

Ostello carissimo in relazione ai servizi. Non c'è wi-fi che la sera viene staccato. Abbiamo sofferto il caldo. Bagni scadenti.

Très agréable séjour. Beau parc autour de l'hôtel, très calme. Petit déjeuner copieux, manque juste des viennoiseries.

Tolle Jugendherberge, die in jedem Falle ein Erlebnis ist. Wir haben als Familie auf unserer Bodenseerundtour hier einen Stopp gemacht und kommen gern mal wieder.

Moi qui cherchait la tranquillité, j'étais servi. L'hôtel est en dehors de la ville ce qui pourrait être gênant pour certains.
La chambre à plus lits à étage était simple, mes colocataires sympathiques. WC douches en parfait état de fonctionnement.
Le meilleur pour la fin...un petit déjeuner buffet trop bien avec tout ce qu'il faut pour bien commencer la journée.

샤프하우젠시 중심에서 약간 떨어진 곳에 위치하고 있어요
좀 멀지만 중앙역에서 도보이동이 가능해요
시설 좋고 저렴하고 아침도 나옵니다
