Comments: It is ok but not as excellent as I thought. The bathroom and toilet can be better. But the good thing is that they offer a safety box for everyone.

Comments: Very instituional feel about this place -- almost like a HI-affiliated hostel. Very clean and secure. The hostel bar was okay, but the night I stayed here, there wasn\'t much of a vibe.

Comments: Great large and clean hostel... The staff are helpful and can make suggestions, book tours etc. Cheap breakfasts (better to pay 2 euro for a good breakfast than a piece of stale bread for free like some hostels!) Individual lights in the dorms would be good as we kept being woken by our room mates turning on the main light.

Comments: 2 thumbs up for this place!!! but why play sound of music movie only once a day at 10.30am when everyone is usually out visiting the city or on tour? Try playing it at the TV room at say, around 8pm? i bet will attract more crowd...

Comments: Great location since it is a close walk to the train station and the sights in Salzburg. Also, felt very safe since there are lockers for your stuff inside your room. Friendly staff who are willing to help answer questions :) Well worth the price.

Comments: The staff were super helpful and gave me tons of tips (which were super appreciated). The kitchen was out of all menu items expect for a couple things and in Salzburg, NOTHING is open on Sunday so we had to eat there. All in all, a good place to stay. Plus, they let me check in a little early which was really nice. Also, there is a 5 Euro disposit for the room key which they didn't indicate before hand.

Comments: The atmosphere wasnt brilliant, and there wasnt anything to do in the hostel between breakfast and the bar opening at 6pm so if you wanted to relax in the hostel for a bit it was pretty boring. The Sound of Music was not played at all due to technical difficulties. They claimed a man was coming into fix it but it wasnt fixed by the time we left and when we asked a different member of staff about it he had no idea it was even broken. Was just all a bit dull and disappointing.

Comments: This hostel was great. Spacious and clean rooms, and a great bar and restaurant. Food service is very slow, but the meals are delicious. The bar is a great place to meet fellow travellers, especially during happy hour.

Comments: Hostel is not far from the train station, however, there are very few restaurants in the area so we ended up eating at the hostel a couple times for dinner. Rooms with ensuite bathrooms are clean and secure.
