KEX Rules

Let’s keep the good vibes flowing at KEX by embracing your inner-rule-following-rockstar! Read carefully the top rules made to keep your experience smooth and safe:

  • Please respect the signs and notices around the house to ensure that everyone has a pleasant and safe experience at KEX.
  • The bar and restaurant are for everyone, including our neighbours but all guest rooms and common areas are off limit to visitors. Safety first.
  • Check-out is until 11 am. We kindly ask you to check-out or extend your stay by that time. We have 215 beds to rearrange or clean every day, so this rule is by necessity and a bit on the strict side.
  • Ok, this one isn´t really a rule but more a notice: the-hard-at-work housekeepers will be tidying up and cleaning between 9am and 4pm. We take our hats off to their diligence. Their work is worth a bit of respect…

  • Smoking is forbidden inside the building. KEX´s patio is for our guests to enjoy some fresh air while enjoying their vice.

  • Food likewise is forbidden in the rooms. There are two well equipped kitchens at your disposal, as well as a restaurant-bar on the main floor.

  • No name calling. Unless you are calling someone by name.

  • One guest per bed, one bed per guest. Please refrain from putting your stuff on a bed that is not your own. If you absolutely must have more than one guest per bed, please remember rule #1… KEX guests only 🙂

  • Take care of your valuables. It‘s your responsibility. Keep your belongings cozy and secure in your locker. It’s like your personal treasure chest. Padlocks are available at the reception for sale.

  • Make friends, spread sunshine: the best memories are made with new friends! So let’s open our hearts, share stories, and create connections!

  • We’re all about rocking out in our bar area, where the vibes are just right! No party poopers allowed outside this zone though – our walls have ears! Let’s keep the noise down to a chill level after hours. Think of it as synchronized slumber party – respect your fellow roommates’ sleep schedules!

  • When your time has come to say goodbye, please remove the linen from your bed and place it in the linen hamper in the hallway. If the linen hamper is full, pile it up regardless… We´ll be along soon to empty it.
