    We had to leave at 6.15 am. It was told us that it was possible to have breakfast at 6 am. On the contary nobody was there to serve us and neither the food. So we left the hostel without eating, even if we had paid breakfast.

    Hostel response:
    We are really sorry about that. This was a mistake from our side. Our rutins will be improved. Hopefully we will see you again. Warm regards Margrethe, General Manager
