Backpackers Düsseldorf is a friendly, comfortable hostel is a good location. To get there, follow the instructions given, or simply walk if you don't have much luggage. It is only a short walk into the town centre, shopping, and the old town. Reception also provides a local map with the location of banks, supermarkets, and restaurants.
The dorm rooms at the hostel are spacious and clean. The beds are comfortable and clean sheets are provided. Towels are also provided free of charge upon request. There are large lockers that fit a lot of luggage in every room. You will need your own lock, but one can be borrowed from reception if you leave a deposit. Otherwise there is no security for the rooms, as locks on the doors are not used. A PIN code is required on the front door to get in the building.
The kitchen is quite small, but there are plenty of utensils to cook a basic meal. Breakfast is provided between 8 a.m. and noon. It is very simple, consisting of bread, jam, tea, and coffee. The showers and toilets are cleaned regularly. Unfortunately there is no hot water in the basins, but it's not a major problem. The showers are always hot and that is more important.
The hostel provides plenty of common space. There is a lounge room with couches and a TV, a dining room with plenty of tables and chairs, and a computer room with free internet and games to play. The atmosphere is relaxed and everyone can sit around chatting. Overall, it is a very nice place to stay in Düsseldorf.
