i didn't appreciate the $2 additional fee for usage of a credit card payment, since this was not disclosed at the time of booking. other than that, the rooms were nice quirky cute and clean. kitchen fully stocked, location good. gripe about auxiliary staff (seemingly in charge of group meals) -they buzzed around like a bunch of disgruntled unhappy bees. they were not pleasant to be around, even when just sipping tea quietly in the common area, as it was hard to avoid their determined paths through the hostel and terrace on their mission of food preparation. other than them though, i think the hostel is a pleasant clean one, and centrally located, with borrowable maps and guide books that aid your stay in Weimar.
