Because it was Christmas, the campfire service in the yard was also nice~

The food was delicious, and the two men who prepared it were very friendly. The location is perfect anyway; it can't be beat. Even with other groups, you don't feel cramped. We'll be back. The proximity to the train station is helpful.

The location right on the lake is brilliant: swimming in Lake Zurich, pedal boat rental, huge lawn, great playground, little pub... Ideal for families. The youth hostel (a beautiful converted former silk factory) is about a 3-minute walk from the train station. The rooms are very clean and functionally furnished. Sturdy, comfortable bunk beds. You can hear the train when the window is open. The toilets and showers on the floor are also clean and, like the rest of the youth hostel, have been modernly renovated. The breakfast is extensive and delicious. Bread (no rolls/croissants), jam, butter, etc. and also cheese, cold cuts, eggs, muesli and so on. Of course there is also juice and good coffee. A fridge and microwave are available for guests. The staff are very friendly and helpful. We have been there twice and would love to come back!

A youth hostel with style. We would love to come back. The rooms are clean and the staff are super friendly. The only drawback is that if you arrive at 8am for breakfast, the items have not been refilled. The bread selection is poor and there could be more, maybe even rolls or something like that....
