I stayed two nights there. In the beginning it was complicated because my room was at 6th floor and i have to go 4 times at counter because my key card was not working, so they change the room and the rest was just great. I like the location and the young helpful staff. I think they all were students... More

We stayed for 5 nights in a double room with ensuite and were very happy with our stay. The staff at the front desk were very friendly and helpful. Rooms are simple but were kept very clean. We stayed during Summer however it was a cold a couple of nights so we did make use of the wall heater in... More

This was my second stay at the A&O Hostel and it didn't disappoint. The room was spotlessly clean and the staff were as polite and helpful as ever. The location is only a 10 minute walk from the central station and was in a prime location for the concert at the Markthalle that I was going to. There was also... More

The hostel doesn't look remarkable from the outside, but the rooms are very clean and were totally worth the money. We stayed in a double occupancy room, and it spacious and bright and had a clean attached bathroom. One thing you should be careful about, though - if you plan on arriving before 3 pm, you'll have to keep your... More

Despite its closeness to the station, A&O is located on a terribly trafficated and uncharming main road. The building has previously served as a block of flats and the atmosphere is very hostel-like (including noisy youngsters coming home at night, and people knocking on your door offering drinks). Not recommended for families or romantic getaways, but an ok stopover solution... More

A very nice hostel. Location very central, 10 minutes by foot from the central station. Polite staff. The room was nice and very clean. I had a few problems with it though- first, I booked a female only room and assumed that would be the case, but there was a man in the room when I came in. The receptionist... More

I had a great experience in this hostel: my booking went lost but the staff was great and put great efforts into making a new booking and apologising - special thanks to Hannah, the blonde girl at the till that night. The hostel itself has a nice atmosphere and is very central, meaning you don't have to use public transport... More

My family & I stayed here for two nights on a visit to the Christmas markets. It's just a 10 minute walk from the Central Station and the instructions provided by A&O are easy enough to follow. Staff were very friendly and spoke English which helped with our limited German. On our arrival, there were large groups of people standing... More

The photo here makes this look like a nice hotel, and its not -- this is a hostel, not a hotel, but what a great place. Yes, there are people hanging about smoking, yes its next to a highway overpass, and yes, its got a backpacker vibe, but there is a bar in the basement (and a half-bar in the... More
