All good and nice but..... I think this must be the only hotel I ever visited which did not have tea/coffee making facilities in the room (kettle, a few teas and coffees). I find that to be essential if you want to have a cup of tea in the evening or a coffee in the morning if checking out really early. I think it may be on purpose to force you buying their expesive breakfast. This is the reason I score it as Okay as the room was fine and air-conditioning in hot weather really helped.

Checkin was simple and fast! Lockers were enough to fit a luggage and a few small bags. Use 2euro to access key and its refunded when youre done. Rooms have no ventilation unless someone opens a window. So it can get stuffy and stale. Mattresses in dorm room on balcony level are right next to eachother so youre sleeping inches away from someone else without a divider. It wasn't at capacity when I stayed so luckily I didnt have to sleep right beside a stranger. A curtain would make stay much more private. Shower and bathroom areas accommodate both genders but have solid doors and locks so I felt super safe. Bring shower sandals. Only 1 power outlet to accommodate a dorm of up to 9 ppl. Not enough power outlets but you can access top level to charge if you stay with your items. Great value considering continental breakfast and cleanliness! Would recommend as its location is great and its a cute town. Noisy due to other guests constantly going in and out of room or talking loudly. If you stay be mindful of roommates and base yourself out of locker to get things and go through your bags in the hallway rather than in room so you are less disturbing.

The staff was professional, cordial and helpful, including being multilingual. The size of the room was very good and the bed was comfortable. The hotel location was also convenient - 5 min walk from the Bern train station.
