Very clean and comfortable. Friendly staff. The attached water complex with 6 saunas was an unexpected bonus.
It felt strange not to be on-suite and then not to have kitchen facilities, as it is normally present on youth hostels

a bit noisy at night (young people coming back in)

the location is beautiful, the staff are incredibly helpful and friendly and it was value for money.
4.0
I quite liked the stay well. Of course, you should not expect everything in a hotel because it is a hostel. The beds were great and there was enough room for the number of people present.
And the location is very good.
Of course, the fact that you need to take showers that are shared is quite annoying but it is normal because its a youth hostel and not a luxe hotel.

great location around the lake. ideal for people who do watersports.
the fact that windows could not be opened in the rooms and there was bad air. also: the reception takes photos of your credit card, recto verso, if you don’t have 100 eur cash for room deposit. there are other techniques (block money on card, then liberate it) than to take pictures of confidential data.

The team was very friendly and it was clean there. The view in the morning is very beautiful and the coffee was good :)
The heater didn’t work so it was very cold at Night.

The hostel surroundings are really nice and inviting. You can sit and enjoy the nature or watch wakeboarders. If you are young, love sport and company, it is a good place to stay. We did not want to have any room mates and this was guaranteed so we cannot complain. The staff was nice and helpful. The restaurant was really cosy and the bar outside also met our expectations. The toilets were very clean. Nice to get a traditional key to the door - it always works. :-)
It was no problem for us to accept most of the rules applicable in the hostel but it is completely incomprehensible that the managers do not comply with basic EU regulations (GDPR). How come you require from your staff to copy guest's ID and both sides of credit card?! You are only allowed to ask your guest to present indispensable documents and write down some data but no xerox copies!
Of course it is a hostel but we missed private bathroom and small table :-) The "economical" shower may also be annoying for some people.

Staff was very friendly.
There was not enough space in the room.
1.5
Too expensive
We did not enjoy our stay at all as we found mice and frogs in our rooms and hallways. The air quality in the rooms is very bad as the windows cannot be opened and the ventilation doesn't make any difference. After providing this initial negative review, the owner called and threatened us to remove this honest but unfortunately negative review. Cannot recommend others to stay in this hostel despite its low price.

Good location, clean sheets and comfortable mattress.
Police had to remove guests that were drunk, making noise and aggressive. Unfortunately we could not find the emergency numbers to contact someone about it at 2 am! ... but luckily others got a hold of the police and the owner.
This has had no impact on the rating.The sarcasm and low level of respect we were provided with when we complained however did! Mail conversation attached in the photos of the property.
We were not provided all information, the floor was dirty, it was noisy (sure hostel) a if you read the response mail, we did not even get a "sorry" ...
It's unfortunate but we cannot recommend this hostel. I think their response says it all.
4.5

4.0
Nice place. Loved the atmosphere
2.3
Got a dorm room to myself, clean sheets on bed. Convenient if using the lakes facilities
Unfriendly staff, very inflexible, rude person on phone. No towel provided. Very basic facilities. No shared kitchen, fridge or anything - actually outside food is strictly forbidden in hostel. Breakfast was €10 extra (already €30 is expensive especially for such basic setup). No possibility to eat any food before the 8:30 breakfast, or even borrow any kind of cutlery (bowl, plate spoon etc.)... food is forbidden! Don't waste your money & energy and go elsewhere
