Stayokay Hostel Soest

Fine hostel; good breakfast, good room, nice location. Dinner quality is substandard.

Unfortunately, my stay at this hostel was disappointing. The biggest problem was the noise at night. Several neighboring rooms were occupied by a large group of teenagers who were loud until late into the night, constantly running back and forth between rooms, slamming doors, and laughing loudly. The automatic doors only amplified the noise. However, the staff's behavior was particularly disappointing. Around 11:15 p.m., I first went to reception because sleep was impossible. They promised to take care of it, but the situation didn't improve. At 2:30 a.m., I had to go back to reception to complain. Only after I made it clear that such a situation was unacceptable did they take any further action. Even then, I barely slept that night. I expect accommodation to ensure a peaceful night's sleep for all guests. Anyone paying for a room should have the opportunity to rest. The management failed in this regard. The breakfast also fell far short of my expectations. The selection was essentially limited to boiled eggs, yogurt, one type of ham, one type of cheese, a few baked goods, and some pastries. For the price, I would have expected a more varied menu. The prepaid dinner was also disappointing. Only pasta was served, which did not meet my expectations for a paid meal. Overall, I was unfortunately not satisfied with my stay. The lack of enforcement of quiet hours and the rather basic food options mean that I cannot recommend this accommodation.

Great hotel. I have to point out that the facilities are pretty modern, and the breakfast even though was kind of poor, it was ok. The rooms though could be a bit cleaner. There is an EV charger available for maximum convenience.

It was a nice meeting. Beautiful location.

Lovely place!
