Nicht besonders schön, nett oder sauber. Schlecht organisiert und keine hostel Atmosphäre. Hilfsbereitschaft des Personals variiert stark je nach Person.

The hostel is abandoned during night time without any staff to support your arrival or act as any sort of crowd control, the higiene level is poorly maintaned, the facilities are old and uncared, the kitchen is among the most disgusting I've found in all my travels. If it was not for the help of other travellers, I would have waited outside all night, important to note I arrived in the afternoon before sunset.

The kitchen is terrible, dirty, and not even open until the staff arrives in the morning at 8, even though they said it would be open 24/7. The staff was nice but the hostel was unstaffed much of the day. Rooms are ok, but no small lights, only ceiling lamps which means when anyone need to get up during the night they have to light up the entire room. When I asked for them to open the luggage storage they just gave me the key, didnt even check what I took, did not feel secure at all.

This was not a good stay. Bremen was a fantastic city and i’ll return for sure but the staff at the hostel was unhelpful with questions, there was no atmosphere, and the lockers were broken from past burglaries, bathrooms and showers dirty and sparse. Did not feel safe at all. It seems like this place was fine and then deteriorated over time.

It wasn't expensive so can't really expect much else. But the advertisement does say that towels are provided when they aren't. The rooms are very basic and the duvet was a mattress topper that you put a cover on. I only stayed for one night, so it was fine. The staff at reception were so nice. But remember that reception isn't open 24/7

Ostello molto fornito, le camere sono un po' claustrofobiche perché le strutture dei letti sono fatte in cartongesso. I bagni e le docce sono spaziosi, inoltre sono disponibili a pagamento lavanderia e colazione. La zona giorno è ricca di giochi da tavolo. Il centro di Brema è distante ma si raggiunge tranquillamente a piedi. Il personale è molto accogliente. Gli armadietti sono quasi tutti con la serratura rotta.

The staff and location was really nice and helpful. But the room smelled very badly. I couldn’t sleep that well, because of the smell. Also I would enjoy a flinta only room.

Good bathrooms, clean and private. The bunks left a lot to be desired in terms of privacy, noise, and light.

I had some bad luck with roommates. I was able to move rooms after the first one stank of cigarette smoke. Sadly the second room had occupants who had never learned how to use a bathroom. However there were other issues as well. The bathrooms did not seem to be cleaned regularly and all the ones I saw had one issue or another. Clogged drains, inoperable faucets etc. The dorms did not lock automatically, the common areas felt like a dungeon. I would not recommend this hostel.

Als die Feuermelder des nachts los gingen, gab es keine Information für alle. Das ist zwei verschiedene Treppen hochgeht muss einem gesagt werden. Einmal bin ich bis zum vierten Stock hochgegangen und da oben erst gemerkt, dass ich die falsche Treppe genommen hatte. Dass es in den Duschen keinen Seifenspender gibt, finde ich nicht okay. Ich reise gerne leicht, ohne Seife. Fernseher auf dem Zimmer ist super.

Wir haben für eine Nacht gebucht. Super zentral gelegen, Parkplätze auf der gegenüber liegenden Straßenseite vorhanden. Super freundlicher Empfang. Ganz viele Lokale in der Nähe und einen kleinen Fußmarsch von der Weser entfernt. Besser geht nicht. Wir kommen gerne wieder.

The hostel is easy to get to. There are some unsavoury characters hanging around the neighbourhood but not directly outside the hostel. Facilities were ok, but the dorms really need privacy curtains. There were also dishes regularly left in the kitchen sink. Staff were great. However, some sorta social events should be organised as there was mo atmosphere.

Nice hostel in great area with very kind staff. Only downside is the matrasses that are pretty thin and the cleanliness underneath them.

This place was very cute. The staff were really nice and I would stay there again. Only thing is I was taking a nap and the cleaning staff decided to clean everything around 4. That should be done prior to check in and if not maybe the room should have been given earlier.

overall I had a great stay and would recommend! The hotel is in a hipster/alternative neighbourhood, which can be good, on taste. it is a short walk to the river and centre though. There are some shady people around but nothing major. The place itself is quiet and cozy and the bed was comfortable. Well cleaned and tidy. The only concern is that t some of the locker doors were missing which slightly implies they may have been broken into, as a result I didn't use them.Just constructive feedback.

Alles top, Lage, Anbindung,Sauberkeit, Mitarbeiter, Preis, Ausstattung. Also wenn man einen Trip nach Bremen und Umgebung oder auch nur einen Zwischenstopp plant meiner Meinung nach mit die beste Wahl.
