If not for the views and location they would have definately deserved 1 star. The place is more like a high school dorm for US kids who are seeing the freedom for very first time. No privacy and everything be it rooms or washrooms are so small that one can barely stand
The upper bunk bed almost touch the cealing, you can’t even climb without hitting it. Washrooms are so small that everything which shouldn’t be wet gets wet. Common basins outside the washrooms are worse then public basins and one of the most uncomfortable bed and pillow
I requested for a lower floor room but the receptionist told that everything else is sold, while all the online website there was still availability. Most of the time you would find staff roaming around but no one will be there at reception
Kitchen is huge and it seems everyone is just cooking all the time
Switzerland and especially Interlaken is very beautiful nd given the location of this hostel they have a potential to be one of the greatest if they just leave their greediness of earning every single frank from the smallest place possible.
Give some respect to the comfort of people staying, give a decent space that a normal human being needs
Please mention that you are a party hostel and you don’t say no to people slamming doors whole night or making crazy noise till late night
Get the cleanliness and hygiene in place
One more point they don’t have lift and rooms are till second floor, so if you have luggage keep that in mind. While i personally didn’t face any issue but have a habbit of looking every place from safety prospective, since the reception is unmanned most of time and is in a separate building, barring couple of door, whole hostel is accessible to anyone, so I’m not sure how much safe it is. Technically you can just bring anyone inside and someone with bad intentions can actually walk to room and if not locked inside also.
Also the whole luggage will be spread in dorm nd if you ask for the locker there are charges for that too… Again earning extra frank at every opportunity they get 😂
