  : Near everywhere.. easy access because its near the central station
  : The old lady on the reception area, was not friendly at all.. elevator is so small, as soon as we enter the room, it smells funny and weird..

Wonderful

  : Everything. This wee hotel is a hidden treasure. Not super fancy, in fact, pretty basic but at its price point you definitely get more than you paid for. Only a few minutes walk from the heart of Munich, its history and its nightlife. Would definitely stay here again!
  : I had no complaints at all

  : Good location close to the main square (10 min walk). It was clean.
  : The AC doesnt work and we had a few really hot days. The desk said it is controlled offsite but it just flashed error the whole time and blew hot air. This was noted in previous reviews. When it got cooler we were able to open the windows but there is a restaurant right next door that starts cooking very early in the morning so the noise comes in the window and your room smells of food. The front desk did give us a fan that belonged to them that helped a little. Also bed choice isnt guaranteed we booked a queen and when we checked in it was 2 twins. We had to move furniture around and out the beds together. The other direction from the hotel is a seedy area with go go clubs but if you keep away from that area at night and turn the opposite way to the square you wont even notice.

  : Comfortable beds, spacious rooms, excellent location. The room had great AC. The proximity to the train station was a big plus, and it was 2 blocks from the Oktoberfest parade.
  : The lobby and feel upon arrival was dingy. We paid $1500+ for a triple room the weekend of Oktoberfest and could have done better for the price. The bathroom is very dated, some mildew in shower and a puddle of water next to the sink under the 2 glasses provided. One of the pillow cases had some hair, so we had them change it.

  : Location is excellent, close to centre and train station. Room was of good size and had all the required amenities. Despite the reviews suggesting loud construction noise outside, we heard nothing. Reception were helpful and printed documents for us that we needed
  : The glass door to the bathroom was smashed and wouldnt close
