Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities
Staff were not friendly and hardly responded. There is no AC in the rooms and by keeping windows open, you have to deal with the noise outside which is intolerable.

This is our very first time staying at a Hostel which is beyond our expectations. The two receptionists who helped us checked in and checked out were above and beyond; the breakfast was exceptional; the location is unbeatable, just right next to the Interlaken Ost Station, super convenient, we highly recommend this place to EVERYONE !!
