I liked a lot the hostel. They have a very nice breakfast that is included and the surroundings are so peaceful and beautiful. Once you learn how to use the public transportation (buses), is so easy to go to the city center or to the falls (I suggest to buy the daily pass). I also enjoyed the place itself, with a lot of wood, you feel comfortable there and it is different from others hostels. The mattress was very comfortable and I had 3 very good nights of sleep.

I arrived quite late and the lady was very accommodating. Communication on the messaging app was great and she replied very quickly. The last who greeted me was very friendly, helpful and welcoming. The room was good and considering this was one of the cheapest places I could find I was very impressed. I had a single bed, plenty of sockets to charge my devices and a shared shower room next door. Everything was clean and tidy. Location was excellent, it’s located just underneath the castle and just a few steps from the waterfront. The town is a few minutes walk away and the huge waterfall is a 45-60 minute stroll along the river. Is be happy to stay here again especially if the price is right.

We came in tired after long journey and got offered free drinks. What a nice welcome! That was also not the only surprise. Although we booked a double room for one night, we unexpectedly got an upgrade to a very spacious studio. It was very kind of the owner to offer it to us. Even though the hostel is located above the pub and there was a concert on the street, the windows are pretty good and we spent a very good night. The studio was also clean and well-equipped. The hostel is located very close to a train station and almost in the middle of the old part of Schaffhausen.

We spent only one night, but it was great being there. The place has a "charm" of its own. All clean, goods and spacious rooms, well located (if you like beer, there is an amazing brewhouse just on the next door). Breakfast was not included, but we could pre-order the night before and the next day we received it fresh from the nearby suppliers ;-)

Looking for a hostel?

Budget travellers know that there is no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a bit more.

No bike storage had to bring my bike to a storage facility and carry all my packs no kitchen for cooking. Rooms were very hot and staff were not helpful and rude. If you are traveling by bike or back packing this is not a hostel

The hostel is extremely clean and the staff is very helpful and friendly. It is quiet at night and it is about a 10-minute walk to the station. If you go to Zürich airport, this hostel is a good alternative to the Zürich hostels.
