Looking for a safe, convenient hostel in Munich? I definitely always recommend staying at a…read moreWombats if you can find one. Not only are the rooms safe and spacious but they have all the amenities you need and no age restrictions. They have a happy hour for their bar, breakfast, lockers, easy location from train stations, and spacious hostel rooms. I really liked this hostel in Munich so I stayed here twice when coming to Germany and leaving back to home to California. Definitely a must stay!!

I LOVED this hostel! Wombats always provides a great experience, but the vibe here was extra fun…read more The bar is downstairs, making the upper dorm floors insulated from the noise. The kitchen is a full, professional grade kitchen with almost everything you could ever need- including utensils and pasta! There's a nice balcony/patio area with a decent view of part of the container park on the street and a climbing wall. Let's talk about the beds though- they're like little sleep caves. I slept so well with my little curtains and a built in fan! Best hostel sleep I've ever had. My roommates were awesome and we had a great time chatting! Loved this place so much.

Hostel is situated in a lovely neighbourhood of Munich named Pullach. The vibe of this almost…read morevillage attached to city is realy cosy, calm and romantic. Connections to centre of Munich are great (in case of using train it's S7), the hostel is approximately 10 mins away from the station. Burg Schwaneck is a romantic castle right next to the river surrounded with a park, where you can play games, table tennis or make new friends. Inside of hotel is partly renovated, so the interior is a mix of modern and old. In right part you can find some classrooms, dining rooms and a bunch of hidden stairways. The left tile is renovated and here you can find most of the rooms. They are newly furnitured and comfortable but don't expect any luxury - at the end this is a hostel not a five-point-star hotel. Rooms and bathrooms are clean, so is the whole building. In third floor you have a cafe with internet, some books, TV and table games. In ground floor you can find kitchen if you're in need of making some snacks by yourself:) Otherwise breakfasts are tasty, so are dinners. I was there during summer while attanding a language school, so expect a group of teenagers (14-17)from all over the world. At that time also a summer camp for nearby kids was organised so the atmosphere was really lovely:) I recommend this hostel for young families, couples... If you're a party animal in search for some crazy nights in beer city that's probably not the best option to stay:)

I struggle with whether this place deserves two stars or three. It is across the street from the…read moreGoetheplatz U-Bahn, extremely close to the 58 bus that goes directly to the train station, has comfortable beds, and a great deal with the pizza/Thai restaurant next door. Oh, and if you're in Muenchen for Oktoberfest, it's about three blocks away from the grounds... although you can still enjoy the Lady of Bavaria all other times of the year. The downsides are that it is incredibly noisy, since much of the staff is young and mobile, they could afford to be a bit more professional, oh--and the bathrooms are disgusting. I don't mean they miss spots here or there--rather, I must question if the janitorial staff step into this area at all. So in a pinch, would I stay here again? Yeah, I guess, but I might go out of my way to find something nicer in the same area.

I debated writing this review, but I think I should. I would have given a good review except my…read moresecond morning I saw bed bugs when I woke up. Here is the review I would have written: As it seems to be a converted hotel, the place is pretty nice. The room that I was in was a moderately large hotel room with three bunk beds. The rooms are as expected bare but good. The room has a bathroom with a shower, a communal closet, and storage for each bed. The bathrooms are nice and well kept. The place overall tries to be hip and young. The lobby has couches and a bar that always seems half closed, but there is seating. There are places to work and a few computers to use. The basement has the cafeteria for breakfast. Overall I am happy with the place; it is nice, reasonably priced, and Now to the post bed bugs review. When I showed the person at the desk an image of the bed bugs he barely reacted and simply had a look of exasperation. He apologized and gave me a one night refund. He said they would decontaminate the room. From the way, he reacted it seemed like this was quite common. My bigger problem is how it affected the rest of my day. I understand that operating or staying at a hostel means bed bugs are a real possibility. After leaving, I had to spend a few hours of my day to make sure all of my stuff was clean so I didn't take it back home. I would have appreciated a bit more help to prevent spreading them. He offered to let me put my belongings in a common storage room so I could go to the store for some bed bug control; I passed for a number of reasons. For those that are unaware, nearly everything is closed on Sundays in Munich. Because of a number of complications, I ended up spending three hours in a laundromat. To be honest, I am not that mad about the bed bugs. What aggravated me was the ripple effect that had on my last day Munich. If they have this problem that often, keeps some spray on hand for guests to use so a bad day doesn't get worse. I think there is a lot more they could do to prevent this.

I had random drunk people knocking on my door in the middle of the night trying to find their room and that was pretty annoying.

The rooms had deep, round sinks with stoppers, a wide mirror, and plenty of counter space. There was no A/C, but the huge windows tilt and open wide with the proper position of the handle. The shared showers could have used a bit of sprucing up throughout the day because there are clumps of stringy hair clogging the drains, which meant dirty water pools around your feet. A cold breakfast is included with your stay. Items include breads, spreads, sliced deli meats, cereal, fruit, yogurt, and hot and cold beverages, including water. It's very formal with place settings and real dishes, glasses, and flatware. I didn't really like the neighborhood, but it was safe. The best part is it's only a 5-minute walk from Hauptbahnhof, the main train station. Other amenities included free coffee all day, a sitting area, bike storage, free maps, tour information, and you can store valuables at the reception.
