Mwah, maar voor deze prijs kun je ook niet veel verwachten
Pros:

Locatie. Aardig bar personeel. Prijs kwaliteit verhouding. Prima douche.

Cons:

Er zaten veel bloedspetters op de muur. Het raam ging niet goed dicht waardoor er mega veel lawaai van buiten was, 2 van ons hebben daardoor geen oog dicht gedaan. De bedden waren erg onstabiel, vooral de hoogslaper. Zodra degene boven beweegt lijkt het alsof het bed instort.
2 bedden waren netjes, 2 bedden waren niet opgemaakt, en zonder licht en stopcontacten etc.

In diesem a&o werde ich definitiv nicht mehr buchen
Pros:

Sehr gute Lage zu Innenstadt und Bahnhof

Cons:

0 acht 15 Frühstück auf schmutzigen Tischen,alte Unterhose des Vorbesuchers im Kleiderschrank, Duschwasser nur schwaches Rinnsal mit nur sehr heißem oder kalten Wasser. Eindruck, Gebäude und Einrichtung sehr abgeranzt. Für 95,-€/ Nacht kein gutes Preis- Leistungs- Verhältnis. Nicht mit anderen a&o Hostels zu vergleichen

Oda o kadar küçüktü ki 3 kişi kıpırdayacak yer bulamadık. Valizimizi zor açtık.

Pros:

A good place to stay, especially if you need somewhere close to the train station. We booked it just for an overnight stay, and it was very convenient.

Overall, everything was good. The room was clean, the check-in process was easy, and the location was excellent for travelers.

As far as I understand, this is part of a hotel chain with locations across much of Germany, so you know what to expect. I would definitely recommend it for a short stay of one or two nights.
