Worth weighing

4 to weigh
  • Location isn't central — The hostel is about 6 km from Deutsches Museum and 7 km from Stachus, so you'll need roughly a 15-20 minute walk to the nearest U-Bahn or bus stop before reaching the center.
  • Some guests found the area 'dodgy' — A few reviewers described the immediate surroundings as a bit sketchy, though they reported no issues during their stays.
  • Wi-Fi is not free in rooms — Free internet access is limited to common areas; in-room Wi-Fi comes with a fee – a minor extra cost for those who need connectivity in their room.
  • Limited amenities for a hostel — There is no bar, restaurant, or breakfast service; only a vending machine and a lift are noted, so plan accordingly for meals and snacks.

“For conference attendees, the location was unbeatable – a short walk to the venue and easy access to public transport. The shared bathrooms were spotless, and the Turkish staff were friendly. A Lidl supermarket was just around the corner. Surprising how quiet it was, and the double beds were comfortable for the price.”

6Verified guest

“The staff were incredibly understanding, letting me sleep through check-in without extra charge. The beds were comfy and clean, and despite being budget, there’s 24-hour reception, security, and a lift. Multiple bus and U-Bahn stops nearby made getting around easy. Free Wi-Fi and ample luggage storage were pluses. Bathrooms and shared areas were impressively clean – great for a tight budget.”

6Verified guest

“Bunk beds were clean and comfy, the room was large with a nice window, and the lockers were huge. Sheets were fresh, staff friendly and helpful, and the price was affordable. They even had maps of Munich’s train system. On clear days, you could see the Alps from the window.”

“For what we paid, the value was surprising. The room was clean, tidy, and cozy, with all the essentials. Public transport wasn't right outside, but a 15-20 minute walk got you there. Staff were friendly and went out of their way to help.”
