I love the view and everything in the Hostel. So cool place to stay in the mountains.
The food price 😁😁 but it’s Switzerland so… 😅

Absolutely would go back in a heartbeat. Great stuff and facilities
This is nothing to do with the property. The kids running and screaming around everywhere is kindda too much for me. Hope there would be an age limit in the future would be nice.

The location was great because it gave you access to Murren easily and the Via Ferrata ends there, so you can stop and change or even wash hands etc. The environment is very relaxed and quiet and slow. The views are stunning and the pizza was delish (although $26 usd). The breakfast was okay- it was yogurt, some meats, and instant coffee. I was expecting a bit more for the price of the hostel.
The pictures of the sleeping arrangement does not match the actual set up. You are sleeping like sardines packed in. Luckily I was traveling with a friend, but otherwise I would have been sleeping right next to a stranger with NO SPACE OR DIVIDER between the beds. The room did not match the images when booking. The beds are literally right next to each other with no space in between and only a divider every two beds- which means you are sleeping basically on the same bed as someone.... Also, the room is like a sauna at night. The air feels like a thick wet wall when you walk in the door- there was no airflow. I do not think they wash the pillow or the comforter.duvet insert- they provide pillowcase and a duvet cover, but thinking about those never being washed was not ideal. I am not sure if it was a heater or body heat, but it was moist and hot. If you plan to sleep in at all and want to wash up, they closed the bathroom around 10 for cleaning. They provided wifi, but it did not work about 50% of the time.
