No parking space, took me 25 minutes to find a free parking. And it's in low season. Can't imagine if it is high season 😬. But once we found one, we can just left our car there and walk to gondola.lake.cinema etc

The staff were not very friendly. There were a lot of kids hanging in the hallways through our entire stay, not too sure why. I realised the lakefront YHA around the corner looked like a much more appealing option, especially as any parking was the same distance away as the other hostel.
Location is good, close to everything. The hostel is on a main street but it was not too noisy and earplugs were provided. It is all how it is advertised. Easy and accessible.

“Great location and super helpful staff”
- • Leisure trip

A bit of wear and tear showing in the bedroom/bathroom, not too bad though. There was no extractor fan in the bathroom so the mirror got a bit steamy. There was some sort of ventilation grill in the bathroom ceiling through which I could hear the couple in the adjacent room talking - I'm guessing it connected to their bathroom ceiling.
Staff very friendly and helpful for choosing activities, restaurant recommendations and so on. It has a drying room which is good if you have wet clothes from the snow (but make sure that the heater is switched on!).
