Hostel Salzburg-Wals

Everything is very convenient, there’s plenty of space in the room, and it’s peaceful and quiet. The bus goes straight to the city center, and the hotel even provides free tickets for travel to and around the city during your stay, which is convenient since it’s very difficult to park a car in the city center. The breakfasts are amazing!!!! We really were enjoying every day!!!!

I’d put it this way: these downsides didn’t really affect us much, but they might be important to some people. There was no hair dryer, and in the shower you had to press the button every minute to keep the water running (though you do get used to it). We didn't rush to get the towels because they charge extra for them, but overall, the price isn't high, just 1.5 euros There’s no separate light switch in the bathroom; you have to close the door for the motion sensor to turn the light off automatically (this isn’t really a downside, just something to note). The first time, the staff member gave us the key to a room that hadn't been cleaned; the second time, she got it right and gave us a clean room (it was just a hassle to walk back and forth with all our stuff, and we really just wanted to plop down on the bed).

Good choice for breakfast. Free transport to the city. Hospitable staff.

Less comfortable beds.

Good location just outside the old town and easy to get to by car without being stuck in traffic. Very convenient for families. The room was basic but comfortable and so were the beds. Very good breakfast. Friendly staff.

One big downside: The location of our quadruple family room was terrible. First floor, on the sidewalk, street level, just behind the bus terminal where people wait and smoke. They could practically be in the room with us with windows open. During hot summer days, you want to open the windows for air and it removes all intimacy possible. And the room was hot.

The breakfast is satisfactory, the parking facilities are excellent, and the location offers great, convenient proximity to the city.

Our four-bed, ground-floor apartment directly faced the main road, resulting in heavy noise from passing buses. The room was uncomfortably hot, forcing us to keep the windows open for ventilation, which only amplified the traffic noise. Additionally, the mattresses were hard. For over €400 for a two-night stay, the quality felt overpriced and resembled a budget student pension. While our experience was disappointing, rooms for singles or couples might be better if they face away from the road.
