눉I had a ROBBERY of my bag ( and passport and credit cards) in the bar of the hostel. When I told it to the reception they don't care and don't help me in anything, they, just from the desk, said that I just have to go to the police. They have a security guard and cameras... but they don't do anything for help. Very bad experience !!!!!!!!!!!!! I hoped more security there and more empathy.
눇Close to the central train station.

눉The shower and toilets were in the shared rooms which was great, but they are so narrow that you hit your elbows on the walls, and make noise for other people in your hostel room.
눇Nice social hostel. Friendly staff who were reasonably knowledgeable about Hamburg tourist activities.
