    I don’t understand how it is allowed party at the hostel after a certain time, especially during the summer when it is too hot to close the windows.

    Great, clean place with friendly staff.

    If you don't have a valid ID card, don't forget your passport!! We read the information given (bring own towel, toiletries etc) but there was no mention of ID being needed. We live in Luxembourg so don't carry our passports all the time and we were only saved here by the fact that my husband had photos of our passports on his phone. Lux driving licence wasn't accepted. Breakfast was disappointing, poor choices of cold food and there were no warm options. not even a boiled egg... Pillows were uncomfortable.

    Great location (we came for a concert at the Rockhal, so it was very convenient). Dinner was pretty good (cordon bleu) and reasonably priced (also free water) and the person who served us was very nice. This was our first Luxembourg Youth Hostel experience so we didn't realise we needed to make our own beds etc but we didn't mind this at all, it's a good idea and you are given a packet with clean sheets and a pillowcase at reception. Reasonable shower.

    You can get towels in the reception with a 10 euro deposit. But we did not know, so it took us some time to discover it.

    Very clean, staff was very helpful, could speak several languages.

    On hot days, they really need to provide a fan for the rooms. It was very hot one of the nights I was there - couldn’t sleep! There is no AC.

    Love the location! The staff is great, and the breakfast is very good!

    A good hostel to stay in for a night or two

    Very noisy — the windows face directly onto the train station. Bring earplugs. No soap at all — not even anything to wash your hands with, which is hard to justify. I would prefer having soap included in the price rather than breakfast. Also, I would like to have curtains by the beds for more privacy.

    Good location, comfortable beds, clean

    Good: just next to train station and good connection to city Center. Also, a bridge goes to the park and minet trail. Ecological, so no soap to wash hand. Spacious, big locker, a desk and chair in room. Good staff and simple and basic breakfast which is valuable to the room rate. Bad: because it’s just next to train station, it will be noisy but I have ear plug so I am good to sleep.

    Right near train station so very convenient. Kinda far from Lux City though. Staff was very friendly and they offered great Bofferding beer in the bar. I didn’t see many young people but it was during the week in April so that’s probably why. It was mostly older people. They offer several singles which are spotless. Bring your own pillow though. Very clean. Nice bar staff. Overall, I had a good visit.

    I'm not picky, but I could not finish the breakfast coffee; it was simply bad.

    No free towels and soap - a little bit inconvenient.

    Just by the train station, so no need to walk a lot with your luggage. The staff was very friendly, the room clean and very comfortable. I also really liked the different breakfast options. Would definitely recommend!

    Breakfast was poor. However, if I consider the price, perhaps it was fair enough.

    Location was perfect! Just next to the strain station. Bakery, supermarket and shopping streets are also very close.

    It was a bit strange that you need to prepare the bed yourself, but it's a hostel. Only, they could mention it. Also, when you book a separate room and there are no towels, it's a little bit disturbing. They need to mention it more clearly. Overall a good stay and will book again.

    Great location, big room and bathroom, cleanliness is OK. Good value for money and OK for one or 2 nights.

    The pillows did not give any support for my head and neck as they were super thin. I wish bar soap or hand soap would have been provided for free to wash hands after using the WC.

    The staff was really nice and helpful! The breakfast was good and facilities very clean. The room was very large and the beds were comfortable.

    The room windows were just above a train platform, so it sometimes got noisy. The breakfast is extremely basic.

    Would've loved some privacy blinds for each bunk bed! Pillow was old of poor quality, time to replace those. Was pretty warm in the room, either a fan or ventilating the hallways better would be a good solution.

    Really friendly and multilingual staff. New, modern and clean hostel with spacious rooms and a large locker for each guest. Great location right next to the train station, a short walk from the city centre and a 15-20 min walk to the Kulturfabrik conference centre. Beds were fairly comfortable, shower was great. Nice to have opening windows. Even though our room faced the train station it didn't really bother me at night even with the windows open - there's barely running any trains at night and earplugs work a charm. Metal shutters instead of curtains in front of the window was surprising but actually worked well. Breakfast buffet being included is great, especially since they had 5 vegan spreads and soy milk.
