"The stay made me gain trust in staying in hostels again! The place seems super new, everything is extremely clean and well organized and therefore I felt very comfortable!! The night I stayed was a pretty calm night and the room not nearly at full capacity. The location is right in the center and e.g. a bus stop very close as well as supermarkets and other stores. Loved it!!"

8.8 out of 10, Excellent, (5 reviews)
"The wood-fired hot tub and fire pit was a highlight of our stay that was worth the money! The electric blankets were a welcome (and needed!) bonus for our October stay in the Jubi tent. The view in the morning, lighting, design, and other accommodations and facilities on site were great! The staff were helpful and answered all of our questions. The atmosphere was relaxed, and the cats and hedgehogs were great to see wandering around the site! We loved the eco-friendly aspect; if you think this...

"Wonderful breakfast. Amazing leaf tea you can put into little individual bags. Getting hot water was a little challenging, however. Maybe a little too clever. For myself I would prefer mugs with handles. Very nice choices for breakfast from excellent bread to tasty omlettes, yogurt and many more excellent items. Very nice rooms, excellent beds, only some brighter lighting in the bathroom would help. I would stay there again any time."
