    Very good for a youth hostel. It's a shame that there are so many young people who have to destroy everything. Otherwise it would definitely be even nicer here. The staff is very nice and helpful. Even the boss is pretty cool. The toilet and the bed were great. The food is also very good and she always fills her up. The youth hostel closes on weekends, but with arrangement you can also stay there over the weekend, but you have to look after yourself.

    Clean house and rooms. Shower and toilet in the hallway, which is no problem. No card payment possible, was not visible on the homepage. Breakfast wasn't available until 9:00 a.m., unfortunately much too late for me. Service team was super nice and helpful.

    Unfortunately you cannot pay with EC card. If this has already been mentioned on the homepage, you can transfer the money in advance. Unfortunately I have to skip breakfast because 9:00 was way too late for my appointments. The employees are extremely nice and friendly.

    For a youth hostel, this house deserves 5 stars. Very nice staff, clean small rooms and sanitary facilities, always varied, home-cooked (!) dinner. Football, volleyball and basketball can be played on site. There is also a pool table and a table tennis table in the basement. However, you should be aware that there are a lot of young people living there, which is why it can get louder from time to time.

    Some of the employees cannot treat us as trainees as adults. You would think that you are a guest in this accommodation, but that feeling does not occur! Sometimes you even get yelled at. Of course, there are also employees who make you realize that you are interesting and important to them. The food can definitely be made better. Not many people live there, so you could cook fresh food, but that's not the case. The beds squeak and are really very uncomfortable. You can't relax there because the other trainees and children in the home can sometimes be very loud. Unfortunately, not much is done by the employees. The kitchen that you could use yourself is permanently closed. At the moment due to Corona but even if other residents treat the kitchen badly, everyone is allowed to suffer. Unfortunately not recommended, even if many people think good things there. Unfortunately, the implementation is very poor.

    I'm staying here for my vocational school days. The rooms are quite small, but definitely sufficient, you can easily concentrate on your school things. The internet isn't the best, but at least you have a connection and can work with it. The food is always super tasty and often home-cooked and you can definitely eat your fill :) Of course it can get a little louder in the evenings after school, but this is due to the fact that there are a lot of young adult vocational students staying there and therefore the music tends to be turned up a little louder. All in all a top youth hostel. If I had to choose a youth hostel in Gelsenkirchen I would come here.

    (Translated by Google) About 25 years ago I stayed at Haus Grimberg. At that time the rooms were visually rather uninviting, but at least clean... In contrast to Haus Heege *cough*. I think the chef at the time, "Schorsch", was no longer allowed to cook there for reasons of age.... But the food was always freshly cooked and very tasty, and I was happy to get a second helping. I hope that House Grimberg has found a good successor. And also important: back then you could concentrate much better on the apprenticeship material here, in contrast to prison in GE-Buer. If I ever end up in Gelsenkirchen again and need somewhere to stay, I would book a room. (Original) Ich war vor gut 25 Jahren im Haus Grimberg untergebracht. Die Zimmer waren damals optisch eher uneinladend, aber zumindest sauber..... Im Gegensatz zu Haus Heege *hüstel*. Ich denke der damalige Koch "Schorsch" dürfte wohl schon aus Altersgründen nicht mehr da kochen.... Aber das Essen war damals immer frisch gekocht und sehr lecker, gerne auch mal Nachschlag geholt. Ich hoffe, das Haus Grimberg da einen guten Nachfolger gefunden hat. Und auch wichtig: man konnte damals sich hier wesentlich besser auf den Azubi- Stoff konzentrieren, im Gegensatz zum Knast in GE- Buer. Falls es mich irgendwann mal wieder nach Gelsenkirchen verschlagen, und ich eine Übernachtungsmöglichkeit bräuchte, würde ich mir ein Zimmer buchen.

    Eine angenehme Jugendherberge. Nur die Holzbetten quietschen.

    So we stay there for several weeks several times a year during our vocational school. The beds are no longer like wooden boards, the food is inedible and it is often loud until the middle of the night. The staff is mostly unfriendly. It is definitely not recommended!

    I've been at Grünberg's house for 7 weeks now and haven't had a good experience. The entire staff is catastrophic and unfriendly. There are 10 of us on one floor and we only have one toilet that is never cleaned. We also found moldy bread a few times. And the room is never cleaned, only the trash. And if you leave your towel to dry on the toilet over the heater, it will be stolen.

    You can sleep on the beds, even if they are not particularly comfortable. The internet is very weak, it didn't reach my room, even though there are several devices in the house (perhaps defective?). I often had to stand in the hallway to have a connection. Unfortunately it has become 2G at the time of the review, although their house rules apply, but it is quite disadvantageous as a long-term contract. I am also human and just want to sleep/rest there and not spread viruses. But compliments to the chefs for dinner, which was consistently delicious.
