First of all, they provide breakfast so I saved a lot of money and I could cook so I saved a lot of money. The only regret is that there is no refrigerator in the room, but even if there was one in the shared kitchen, no one touched it so it was okay.

Overall it's good, the location is good, the service is good, especially the breakfast, which can be enjoyed for free. At the same time, the kitchen equipment is very complete, and you can make a big meal. The only shortcoming is that because it is a youth hostel, the hardware can still be slightly improved.

The price is quite suitable, but the location is not very good.

The location is great and very close to the main bus/train stations of Interlaken Ost/West. Bonus was that you and your guests get free bus passes from the hostel to use multiple trains/bus stations (a certain list). This was a pleasant surprise and made our stay easy. There is a bus stop RIGHT outside the hostel. - The staff was very helpful, warm, and welcoming. - The garden is pretty, and it was nice using the free lockers when we arrived early before check-in. - Our private quadruple room was spacious, the beds were comfy, and the private in-suite toilet/bathroom were clean. - Plenty of plugs and outlets, liked the little shelves above each bunk bed. - The breakfast was minimal, but enough. Toast, jam, butter, yogurt, cereal, granola, juices, and a tea/coffee machine! Enough to get through you through the morning. - Had occupants of all ages, thought it'd be a rowdy, super young population, but saw Seniors to early 20s crowd! - Hard to find seating in the morning during breakfast, some come early, or may need to take back to your room. - You only get 1 towel per person, per stay. I wish if you were staying more than 2 days, you get another complimentary towel. - No AC in the room. But all these makes sense because it's a budget hostel.

This properly is positioned more for yong adults or single travelers. Not so much for families. Otherwise, the facilities and location is great

Great location! Very walkable. Great for solo or families. Bed was too firm for me.
