We really appreciated the little touches that made our stay even more comfortable – fresh towels, shower gels, and coffee were all provided. These details made us feel well taken care of and added to the overall pleasant experience.

“Best hostel ever”
This was the best hostel ever!! The amenities and beds were so comfortable and the rooms were very private. It looked exactly like the pictures. The host even let us store our bags overnight because we were going on an overnight hike the day after.

“Had a wonderful time at Appenzell! I would like to come back some other day. :)”
Only three guest rooms in the hostel. The rooms are cleaned everyday. The smells of shampoo and body gel are really fresh. I love the warm kitchen and dinner room. Staffs are really friendly and helpful.

“Excellent. Very clean and comfortable for guests. Thank you very much for hospitality.”
The host has provided us with free coffee. The weather was hot. At our request, the host has immediately bought a ventilator for our room. The hostel was so close to the center of the village. So it was very convenient to eat, shop and visit the surroundings.
