Excellent
The Bar closed at 21H30 was the only blemish of our stay.

The view is stunning but the facility is filthy
This was a very bad experience. They could not find my booking. Then when I finally checked in my rooms were filled with other people. The place is filthy to say the least.

The view from the hostel is amazing and definitely the best thing about the place. There is quite a lively atmosphere when there a few people staying but it's pretty far from the town unless you have a car (and even then you need to be careful if you've got a rental).
We stayed in a double room and it was quite dirty. Not sure if the linen had been changed because there was hair, stains and lots of pieces on it. Plus I found a few bed bugs on the bed which we managed to kill with some spray.
Breakfast is pretty standard toast and jam with a few apples to pick from and the food you can order for dinner isn't bad. For the price its OK but couldn't say the place was clean.

Sehr schön gelegener Backpackers mit Blick aufs Meer. Die Mitarbeiter waren außerdem sehr nett und haben uns viele schöne Orte in der Umgebung von Wilderness gezeigt.
