a&o Bremen Hauptbahnhof

This place had good facilities and was spotlessly clean, but was far too functional and impersonal. It was a bit like staying in a hospital or an institution. No character or ambience. No proper lockers in the dorm room, only metal cages under the bed. You can put a padlock on the cages, but as they are not fixed to anything, the cages plus contents could simply be removed, which kind of defeats their purpose. Location very convenient for the train station, but not so handy for the city centre or the main nightlife area.

One night stay after flying into Bremen before moving on. Stayed in several A&O hotels around Germany so knew what to expect. Clean functional room & fine for overnight stay. I’d made an error with my booking as thought I’d booked a solo room but in fact booked a bed in a dormitory. Thanks to helpful guy at reception I was able to pay difference for an individual room.

Everything as expected. Still quiet room by the railway!

Overall good hostel. Lobby / common area is very spacious. The DOM is quite good with en-suit. But no power socket at bedside and USB outlet was not working. There was additional charge for bedding sheet which was a bit surprise.

The room was clean enough and the beds were comfortable enough. Nothing about it was very inviting. We had to make one of our own beds as well. Basically felt like a college dorm.
