The hostels classified as "suitable" fulfill the requirements for barrier-free access in all areas (including the arrival route, the entry and the bathroom) and can be used by standard wheelchair users without any barriers. It could be possible that individual public, subordinate rooms (eg seminar room, roof terrace) may be difficult to access.

25 Youth Hostels are classified as suitable "barrier-free"

The classification of a hostel as "partially suitable" can have variable reasons. The assessment is based on a consideration of the following points:

- individual barriers such as low thresholds that are nevertheless easily manageable for many wheelchair users

- important public rooms that are inaccessible for wheelchair users

- limited space in the rooms

All hostels with this classification have at least one specially adapted bathroom (shower and WC) for people with a mobility handicap.
