“Fantastic location!”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 11 August 2011
2
people found this review helpful

Great location - 1 minute walk from one of the exits of the main train station. Escalator takes you up as well - that means if you've got roll on luggage, can pull on the escalator - which goes 2 ways.

Loved the location as the trains were the local trains as well as the international train station. Easy to move around within Munich & also take the train to other cities. I took the train to Salzburg for a day trip & the proximity to the train station made it so convenient that I didn't need to wake up extra early or arrive super late back at the hotel.

The rooms are clean - request for rooms not facing the road - the first night, I was kept awake as there is a sports bar across the road & there was a football match, so couldn't get any sleep as I'm a light sleeper. Requested to change rooms the next day & thankfully, got a room with no view but it was quiet.

Kettle is provided.

Room Tip: Request for room facing the inside if you want a quiet rest at night.

“good experience, small, close to train station”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 1 August 2011

I stayed 2 nights after a business trip and it went well. The neighborhood is a little scuzzy (casinos, strip clubs, train station) but there are also many things open late. I would definitely stay there again if the prices were at the same level as other nearby hotels. Front desk staff was very helpful.

“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
1
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!!!
