Surroundings

Generator Hamburg is in the city centre, and super connected being only across the road from Central Station (Hauptbahnhof). Hamburg’s harbour area grew with adventure in mind – the North Sea wind is as present as your breath, providing crisp air in the winter and a refreshing breeze in the summer. You’re close to plenty attractions, restaurants, and bars that you can head out from the hostel too and enjoy.

Correct hostel the rooms are clean despite some problems. However, the reception was not pleasant at all.

A jungle

The only positive note of this hostel is its proximity to the station (useful for those who have to catch an early morning train) and the bar/common area. For the rest I don't really save anything. The area is that of the station, with all that derives from it in terms of attendance, and that's fine, but at least put a code on the door? Instead of leaving it almost open at any time? Anyone could enter this hostel at any time and easily go to the rooms without being stopped by anyone. The rooms are terrible, beds all very close together, with the one below where you can hardly breathe. The bathrooms in the room are horrendous: although it is appreciated to separate the shower from the toilet and the sink (which is not a given), the latter is so small that to brush your teeth or rinse your face the whole bathroom is flooded. Also, annoying smell in the room of I don't know what. I didn't use the laundry service so I can't comment. I don't recommend it, also a bit far from the main attractions

An atypical place and a good atmosphere

Room for four rather spacious. Lots of atmosphere at the bar in the evening.

Nice and well located

Beyond appearances, it is a pleasant hotel, well located and with charming, smiling and accommodating staff. Minimalist but very clean
