The hostel is a disaster, no security at all. There's only one key for the room and there are no lockers with actual locks in the room. You're not allowed to close the room when you're inside (or go to the WC) so literally anybody can enter it. If you close the room, you must return the key to the reception every time. The man at the reception didn't speak English at all so I was really confused when I didn't get the key to the room and he just showed me to the stairs. The location of the hostel is bad too. You have to take the tram if you want to get to the centre. Walking will take at least 50 minutes. There's no Internet for the decent price (4,95 Euro for an hour and only on the ground floor). The shower and toilet were OK. There were no individual sockets (only two sockets for 5 people) and lamps.

Needs a computer terminal, and an area to meet people, but the kitchen staff were very nice and breakfast was good.

Quite modern hostel in middle of housing estate. Long walk (ca. 1 hour) from central railway station. Full and excellent breakfast included. German hostels tend to be full of school groups early in the week.
