So clean! They had so many staff members come through and scrub the place down at 10am everyday. There is a massive kitchen facility with enough of everything so during the kitchen rush time you can still cook.Breakfast and free coffee was a major plus for trying to do Switzerland on a budget. We also had the added bonus of a balcony which was so nice to sit out on and enjoy the sun!

The hostel is amazing at a good location. They provide free towels and lockers after check-out.There is shower gel in the bathroom. The guest kitchen is also quite big. There's a bu stop right at the front of the hostel.The free breakfast is not really great. Just bread (jam, butter) and cereals (yoghurt,milk). I have been to other hostels and there were more than this. No fruits, egg, salad, etc. The breads were really bad. Their edges are so tight that you can't eat.

One of the best hostels I’ve ever stayed at, I couldn’t recommend it more. The breakfast was amazing, and the coffee station was free all day. I asked the staff so many questions and they were local experts, always knowing the answer. Also only a 15 minute walk from Interlaken Ost and right near the main part of town, maybe like a 5 minute walk. Please do yourself a favour and stay here

Very nice stay, expensive but worth it considering the good facilities. Less young people than expected, but it worked out really well.

It has more of a hotel vibe. There were families staying in this hostel with their children. Not very social. However, the comfort aspect is 10/10. The place is very clean and new. The kitchen is huge and there are several common areas. The free breakfast was also really good. I would stay here again!

Good hostel in terms of facilities and staff, but not very social. Lots of families and not many young people. So, anyone who is looking for a social hostel, i do not recommend this place
