8/10 Very good

As a female solo traveler, this hostel was very close to the train which made travel easy and accessible. My only complaint was the bed options and the room layout. I was in a mixed room for 4, and the only options for sleep were literally next to a male or a top bunk which can be uncomfortable. it would make more sense b

The hostel is in a great location, a few minutes walk to the train station and a 20 minutes walk to the Cathedral. We had a quad room which was pretty tight and room could use deep cleaning.

10/10 Exceptional

This property was fantastic. I was looking for a reasonably priced hotel very near the train station and you can't beat the location of this property. I was warmly greeted by the staff, who even offered a nice hot cup of coffee. The reception area is large, comfortable, and was playing some great music. It's a fun atmosphere. My room was just what I needed, the floor was quiet, and the next day the staff kindly allowed us to store our bags for a few hours so we could explore the Christmas market before our train. I really enjoyed my stay and hope one day to have the chance to return.

8/10 Very good

12€ for a bed in a 4-bed room is definitely one of the cheapest options you will find in Germany. Staff friendly and accommodating and location just a few steps from Aachen main station. Rest is up to luck of who you have to share your room with. My room was really smelly and the bathroom was quite dirty but I think that was due to the person I had to share my room with rather than the cleanliness of the hostel itself.

4/10 Fair

Slept very badly because of the train station nearby and the open window; if we would close the window it would get too hot. Bedsheets of previous guest were still on the bed, bed number didn't match my card (bed was taken). Room sanitary was good and clean, public sanitary was dirty and a lot wasn't working. Staff is friendly.
