In our room we can hear people scraping their chairs in the middle of the night. We would suggest putting covers on the chair legs to prevent the noise.

Hostel was in a great location in the city centre (however that meant slightly further away from the train station ~15 min walk which was a slight struggle with a heavy luggage). Service staff were helpful and friendly. Room had amazing view of the mountains. Decent breakfast spread. The room had a slightly musty smell. Lack of PowerPoints in room for charging

Shower improvements needed!

1) The shower has a curtain and not a screen which is very uncomfortable water comes out from all sides. also there is not a good support for the shower head. 2) Breakfast: the variety of products could be improved.

Everything is great at this stay except one incident that happened during our stay. At around 11:30 pm one night, a male customer had key access to our private room (females only). The receptionist gave him the wrong key to my room. We were not very happy about that. Luckily, nothing bad happened. I take safety seriously while traveling aboard and what happened was disappointed!

Full kitchen with many cooking stations and conventional ovens too. You can absolutely buy groceries and cook from scratch. Free breakfast (bread, cereal, yogurt, fancy coffee machine, hot chocolate, tea). Free dryers (coin laundry). Rooms are spacious if you book a private one. Next to bus station although train station is also walkable. Can borrow a hair dryer. Room amenities are limited but not a concern for us. Separate shower and toilet and sink in the room. Plenty of large lockers that will fit large suitcases, and lockers in the room if you're sharing the room with someone else. Recreational activities include ping pong, foosball etc. All free to use. Excellent location. Nice gardens and terrace spaces too.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service
This’s good option for middle price in peak season. We chose it because too late to find other hotel close to Interlaken Ost station. There’s a public sharing kitchen , that’s little convenient, however also uncomfortable because not really clean when people share using. That’s good they have a laundry room. Free breakfast doesn’t have many options, but enough for people to get some energy in the morning. The bus station is right on the front of right side so very convenience. They give you pass to use free buses & some train directions close of the town in stayed days. The minus point is no AC & fan in our stays that really terrible when it’s so hot & humid! My kids couldn’t sleep well, better little at nights when we opened the windows, however still uncomfortable because no air flow in room, the bugs could get in when opening the windows. The hostel is basic same motel in US. Overall I rate 7/10.

設施及環境皆完善的背包客棧

此背包客棧規劃了多種公用的區域，包括很大的大廳，早餐區，工作及休閒區，小庭院等，很喜歡這些區域的規劃，讓我們待在這些區域可以享受休閒和渡假的氛圍。 最喜歡的是他們有大大的廚房，讓我們得以在住宿的期間可以自己下廚，吃到自己煮便宜又豐盛的晚餐，加上有免費的美味早餐，內心充滿感恩。 房間方面覺得若增加可掛衣服的衣櫃、小毛巾及廁所多點置物的地方會更好。 整體還是很喜歡的，希望未來能再入住。

전 후기에 사장님에 대한 찝찝함을 안고 갔으나 겉차속따 사장님이셨어요 ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ무뚝뚝하시지만 친절하십니다 숙소는 유럽 어디든 그렇듯 오래됐지만 잘 관리되어 있고 침대가 폭신해서 꿀잠잤습니다 조식도 깔끔하니 맛있었습니다. 주요 관광지만 찍으실거라면 추천합니다!!
