A bit off-centre, ok property for ok price
Location a bit off-centre, with the train station some 10-15min walk and the cuty centre further away on the opposite side of the railtrack. It feels more geared to those traveling by car as pedestrians have to zigzag a bit around the road when coming. The property is ok, there's a bit more wear & tear than in other a&o's I've stayed at. Still, it covers the basics and is fairly clean so may be good enough for a short stay.

I booked one bed for one person and did not see the it was in a 6 bed room with 5 other people. This was a shock. This should have been visible at the time of booking.

Everything was good, clean , and the service were great except two things . There is an indian who works in the section of breakfast , he was impolite. The other thing that i really didn’t like in this hostel is the size of the TV . the size of the TV is close to the ipad 12.9 inches size ! Which is really i hate in this hostel . You can barely see through it

Good stay. Room was paid for in advance, but they required me to email them an email from hotels.com to "prove it". Shouldn't they know that?

A quiet place in town not too far away from the train station. The bus station is in front of the station, with a bus directly to the train station. Cheap rooms, good wifi.

Chaotische Jugendherberge !
Ich kenne die A & O Hotels aus Hamburg von der Reeperbahn und habe schon zahlreich dort übernachtet. Nur deswegen habe ich aus der Not heraus das Hotel gebucht, als das ursprünglich gebuchte Hotel in einer sehr schneereichen Nacht nicht mehr erreichbar war. Buchung 23.58 Uhr, das System bucht mich aber auf die darauffolgende Nacht, ohne das ich das gemerkt hatte. Im Hotel angekommen, meine der Nachtportier, das würde nicht gehen, dass man die Nacht auf die gewünschte Nacht umbuchen könnte, obwohl der Übernachtungspreis derselbe war. Also Doppelzahlung, einmal Hotel, einmal Hotel.com. Das Doppelzimmer war eine Eiskammer. Eingecheckt um 01.00 Uhr brauchte es über eine Stunde, bis die Heizung das Zimmer auf angenehme Temperaturen hochgeheizt hatte. Das Bad ist sehr klein, das Bett füllt den Raum aus. Zwar sauber, aber nicht länger als eine Nacht. Die ganze Anlage macht eher den Eindruck einer chaotischen Jugendherberge. Parken kostet Geld, aber in einer Schnee-Nacht lässt sich der Parkplatz gar nicht erreichen, weil der Schnee einen halben Meter hoch liegt. Aber, ohne Auto ist das Haus wahrscheinlich nicht zu erreichen. Mein FAZIT: Chaotische Jugendherberge für viel Geld – Muss man nicht haben. Besser woanders buchen, günstig ist es so oder so nicht.
