“Nice rooms, bad atmosphere and service”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 21 July 2011
1
person found this review helpful

The hotel rooms are nice, and it is renovated beautifully comparing to the price.
But, there was no internet in our room. there was simply no signal, only in the hall. this was very important for us and we wanted to change the room. no other room was available.
We then agreed with the person at the from desk that we will be able to surf the internet from the hall without extra charge, but when checking out - we were asked to pay! the desk guy argued with us and was very impatient. that was not pleasant at all.
The rooms are not very clean, beneath the bed there is tons of dust, the window was small, and the cups and coffee was not cleaned and refilled every day.
Location is close to center, but the neighborhood is not so good, not for the sensitive soul.
bottom line - I am not coming back.

“Surprisingly good base”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 18 July 2011

person found this review helpful

You would not expect this to be such a stylish place from the look of the other seedy establishments near by but we were very pleased with the room and breakfast room.
A stones throw from the train station, metro and trams makes it a great base to go out exploring the city from. The triple was a bit tight so try to go for twins if possible.

There is not much else on offer at this hotel apart from bed and breakfast but it is good deal which leaves money for german beer.

“Great Value: simple, clean, comfort!”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 28 February 2011

person found this review helpful

This was a great wee place to stay. You couldn't swing a cat in the room but there was a sort of ante-room area split off by a chalet-style beam with table and desk, leading into bathroom. It has a kind of alpine theme with frieze of skiers on the wall. All in all it was pretty modern and comfy if a bit cramped.

We got it on a deal for three nights and it was good value. Flat-screen TV, comfy bed and decent breakfast. All the fittings were new and it was spotlessly clean. It is a stones throw from the railway station and a 5 minute walk into town.

Strangely though, we were awoken during the night by a drunk American who somehow had got onto an adjacent roof amid a thunder storm and couldn't get off. That apart, it was a peaceful and tidy place to spend a few days. As long as the crazy guy is off the roof!!!

“Great location, neat rooms and fantastic city.”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 10 February 2011

Well this hotel is never going to win loads of awards, but...it does have a lot going for it. Mainly it's location, literally across the street from the train stations and no more than 5-10 mins walk into the Marienplatz, the city centre.

True that further down the road it is on is the more seedy parts of Munich, but just don't go down there if you're not interested. Simple.

My room was on the third floor and was good. Comfy bed, secure safe and a very nice ensuite, shower was awesome! The Walls are a little on the thin side but didn't bother me too much.

All in all, good quality small hotel situated perfectly to explore the city!

“Has potential, could be cleaner”
2 of 5 stars Reviewed 29 January 2011

My husband and I stayed here for the last 2 nights of a 2-week trip to Bavaria, Austria, and the Czech Republic. We chose this hotel because of the proximity to the train station, price, and the fact that it seemed better than a lot of the other options in this area. Reception was friendly and it was relatively modern with nice decor, but it definitely looks nicer in the pictures than in reality. Out of all the places we stayed during this trip, this one was the least clean. That was our only real complaint, but there's no good reason why a modern hotel in this price range can't put in a little more effort in this respect. (It would have been a 4/5 if it had been clean.) Not terrible, but we probably wouldn't stay here again.
