“Very caring staff and great location. I want to visit again.”
The building was pretty, with many toys in the garden and a playground. The staff was so hospitable and the breakfast area and breakfast were impressive. They also had a fountain with free mineral water and sparkling water. We felt so welcome!

“1 night stay in Lindau”
Very well organised hostel building and facilities, comfortable and spacious rooms, very good breakfast, parking in front of the house. Everything was absolutely clean. The hostel has a very good mood, you can rest and have a drink in the small inner garden, or enjoy some outdoor activities as table tennis or badminton. Located just a 15 minutes walk from the old town on the island.
