    The room was pretty small and no lockers for valuables. The automatic lights were a little annoying at night although the curtains on the beds did pretty much block them out. It's a long way to walk to the town, although there is a bus stop outside for the ski season.

    The only hostel in St Anton and it was a good place to stay. Great staff and good facilities to cook and relax.

    Really nothing.

    LOCATION: This hostel is amazing! The location is excellent. If you come by car, there are plenty off-road parking next to it. If you come by train, there's a public bus taking you door-to-door from the train station to literally in front of this hostel. The same bus also brings you to St Anton town and several different ski chairlifts (Nassereinbahn, Galzigbahn, Rendlbahn). CLEANESS: The whole hostel is spotless! I spent 10 days there. There was no moment when any part of the hostel is not clean. I was amazed by how every time I hanged around, I'd walk by some staff vacuuming, mopping, wiping the counter, and just cleaning something... FACILITIES: The mattress and pillow are very comfy (NOT your basic hostel quality). Every bed has a curtain, so privacy is great. Each person has a shelf in the room. Lockers are in the basement first come first serve. Shower water pressure is strong and hot water becomes available quickly. They have a basement room specifically for storing snow gears, including some racks for snowboards/skis and a heating rack for the boots. Everything looks new. You can access this room directly from the outside. Super convenient! They have a great system assigning dry food shelf and fridge space per your room/bed number. I did big grocery twice and cooked all 10 days during my stay. No issue about storage space. I also like the free orange juice machine they have in the kitchen. You can get 2kg oranges for a few euros and enjoy fresh juice anytime you want. This machine is thoroughly cleaned everyday. There's a vending machine with some food and drink, including 2 euro instant noodles. STAFF: They are super friendly, attentive, and helpful. I wanted to cancel the last few days due to my plan change. The process was very smooth! If you don't mind roommates, you won't find better value-for-money or cheaper stay for St Anton and Ischgl skiing. I've tried and failed for the last five ski seasons :)

    The property was clean and comfortable. And right on the bus line. The staff was amazing. They were friendly and didn’t hesitate to help me out when I ran into problems on my trip. I can’t recommend Stanton hostel enough.

    Not many dinning facilities close by and the only ones nearest are very high end. I personally founf it a little to warm at night.

    The people who own and run the Hostel are very nice and hospitable. Real laid back and chill. Very well set up facilities. The buses to the ski lift during ski hours and up to 7 are free and run roughly every 20 min or 30. After that it's every hour and not free but not to expensive. Would highly recommend staying here especially if travelling solo.

    We were there in the hostel was not full. I could imagine if the hostel was full the bathrooms would be quite busy in the morning and evening and maybe people have to wait to shower or use the toilet. This was not our experience because it was not full but I could imagine that happening

    The kitchen has plenty of supplies for cooking and storing food. They also have a good system for each person to have their own food storage space. The little pods that the bed is in are pretty cozy and actually really nice. The beds were pretty comfortable too.. very friendly staff and a fun environment to meet other travelers.

    Very handy having the busstop right outside, then it's a ten minute (max) trip to the lift at Nasserein. I was able to park outside before and after my stay, but be warned there is only really room for four cars plus two on the charge points.

    Friendliest staff out there, welcoming and including, had lots of fun playing board games and hanging out on rest days! The mattresses are also memory foam so very comfortable and having enclosed beds adds a nice and unexpected level of privacy for a hostel. Had a great time and would recommend.

    The hostel exceeded my expectations

    I forgot to book this part of my trip -- x-country skiing to get over jet lag before joining my club for downhill, By the time I got around to it, Stanton Hostel was the only affordable place available. The kids were all very nice to an old guy. Enclosed beds with private lights were great. The shared bathrooms were warm & clean. Staff were friendly and arranged for my afterhours arrival.

    There is no private area designated for getting changed before/after showering. Personally I didn’t find this a big issue, and still found the hostel great value.

    I know St. Anton well and the value of the Stanton Hostel is high. You get what you pay for and more. Comfy beds in a wooden pod gave adequate privacy, and there was a personal light and power socket inside. Whilst there are no locks on doors (apart from the toilets of course) the hostel is in a quiet area (St. Jakob), and I felt like both myself and my belongings were safe. Kitchen facilities very good and nice common area. The girl who checked me in was friendly, showed me around and informed me of how everything worked. The bus stop is right outside and is frequent. Ski room was adequate. There’s a balcony too.
