The location is right next to the underground station. Above a lovely pub for evening drinks reminds me of publove. And the familiar faces from up stairs helped. Across a fantastic bakery for fresh baked bread and breakfast. Convenient shops close by. If you don't make a point to go out and visit the city. ....you might just chill out. But I love the locker system, the checkout s ystem too. The receptionist was very helpful made contact earlier in the day so it was personal service.
The shower has a system meant to save water so that was new to me and as much as I enjoyed the shower. It would have been nice to know how to Work it for the first time. I got an upgrade too. So thank you but peeped at what I missed and even those showers looked very clean as well.

The staff were very friendly. The kitchen has everything you need with free toast,tea,coffee, jam (which is definitely rare nowadays), The beds were comfy, I stayed two separate nights in separate rooms, one was fantastic the other okay with some noise from the outside, which is expected considering we're the hostel is. The hostel is close to many stores and amazing places to eat.
The lack of toilets outside the room, only 1 on the ground floor. If possible it would be ideal to add more.

The location is bit off from Cologne Central station but the hostel was nice to dwell in for 2 nights. The staffs were friendly and helpful. The hostel was clean and had a cafe/bar at the entrance which offers beer, coffee and soft drinks for discounted price. It's a cozy place to do chit chats. The rooms were quite nice and beds were comfortable. There is also a common kitchen available for the guests to use and which also serves as a place to start a conversation.
All was great. Nothing that we did not like.

The interior of the main hall was very nice, since it's a café/bar. The hostel's location is very convenient too, as it is surrounded by many shops and restaurants - specifically kebab shops And it's relatively close to the city centre too (30mins by foot or 10mins by bike). I paid a little extra 5euros for a smaller room with its own bathroom and toilet and I gotta say this hostel was a bang for your buck, even during summer.
Someone stole my coffee at the public kitchen. I put it in the fridge at midnight and the next day in the morning, at 9am it was gone.

The staff were very friendly and explained the necessary details (like how there's no staff after midnight and about the door code) but seemed a bit unfamiliar with business travelers. Room a bit on the small side but very clean and well maintained.
The room was cramped and nothing very stylish but it's really a hostel so the room was above-standard for a hostel. Construction workers removing scaffolding on the first morning was a bit of a loud shock.

The staff is super friendly and makes you feel comfortable. My room was the one with 4 beds and was cool, each one has a locker to save your things. Close to the hostel there is a nice supermarket and many shops to buy everything you need
To reach the city center you have to walk at least 30 minutes but just in front of the hostel there is a subway stop

The staff were so friendly and helpful. We were delayed due to trains and missed our checkin time but they went out of their way to accommodate us and returned to the hostel after close to give us the key to a private room for no extra cost as we were too late to stay in the dorm we had booked. They also let us keep our bikes in the cellar and store luggage after we had checked out. The cafe had a lovely atmosphere and very good prices!

Staff is so helpful and coperative. Hotel is neat and clean. Breakfast wasnt included in my booking but receptionist told me i can do breakfast, appreciated. Location is good, next to tram station and nearby by resturants and supermarket.
Noicy because of traffic. Room size is too small. Bunkers are too old and noicy when move during sleep.

We booked a double room and were pleasanlty surprised about how spacious it actually was, when we arrived! The room was really clean and well decorated as well! It rather felt like a little apartment for us in which we felt really comfortable! The location was really nice as well! As soon as you step outside the hostel door, there are tons of restaurants, cafes and bars, that you can go to. The staff was young and friendly. If you need towels, you can get them for free at the reception.
As the hostel is located directly at the main street in this neighbourhood, you could hear people shouting sometimes at night. And especially in the morning, the traffic starts quite early and it was really loud due to all the cars and trucks, probably delivering food/beverages to the surrounding restaurants and coffeeshops/ markets, so that we actually woke up around 5 or 6 AM and had to close the window. Other than this, everything was really nice. :)

Location is good, the staff is great! It's all clean and organised.
The kitchen is nice but furniture found be rearranged to host more guests. The current table does not help much. The major problem is the lack of a visible sign outside. If was raining when I arrived and it was very difficult to find the entrance from the street.
