The hotel was more like a youth hostel than expected for the price, but the rooms were clean, comfortable, and spacious. The service was honest and simple, though we had to wait a day and a half for maintenance. The location was great, right across the road from Munich's HBF and a short walk to the historic center. The dining options were good, including top-quality items at an excellent value. The facilities were basic but sufficient for a short stay.

My stay at the hotel had its ups and downs. The location was perfect, just across from Munich Central Railway Station, making it convenient for dropping off a rental car and exploring the city. The staff, while not overly friendly, were helpful and pleasant. The dining options were fine but slightly overpriced. The room, however, was not up to the standard I expected; it was decent but not spotlessly clean as there was dust and dirt on the floor, and the setup with single beds pushed together was not ideal.

I absolutely loved my stay at the hotel! The location couldn't have been better, right in front of Muenchen Hbf and just a short walk from the city center. The rooms were clean and bright, albeit a bit warm without air conditioning. The service was top-notch, especially thanks to the super friendly staff at the round-the-clock reception. The dining experience was delightful with a variety of European food options. Although the location was convenient, there were minor issues like mold in the shower fixture and a pricey parking fee, but overall, it was a fantastic stay.

I had a mixed experience at the hotel. On one hand, the room was clean and comfortable with new furniture, but the noise from the nearby train station was quite disruptive during the night. The location was convenient right next to the train station, but the service was lacking friendliness and assistance. The dining options were decent, with included breakfast but some issues with food replenishment. Overall, it's a place with potential but room for improvement.

I was delighted with the hotel's ideal location just across from the main train station, making it super convenient for exploring the city and attending Oktoberfest. The room was decent in size, but being jammed against a wall was a drawback. The service was a mixed experience with a nice large lobby and accommodating staff, but there were instances of rudeness. The dining offered a variety of options, but a disappointing food top-up near closing time. Overall, a satisfactory stay with some highs and lows.

I had a mixed experience at the hotel. The rooms were clean and had the necessary elements, but the size was quite small, which worked well for a couple but would be too cramped for four adults. The service was mostly friendly, with a helpful reception attendant, but encountered a rude staff member who refused to address noise concerns. The location was fantastic, right opposite Munich's main train station, making it convenient for exploration. The dining offered a large selection of food but had some lapses in replenishing items. Despite its flaws, the hotel provides good value for its prime location.

The hotel had rooms that felt a bit small compared to what I expected but were manageable, especially considering the size differences found in Orlando FL and Italy. The rooms were clean and ready for us, but there was a strange smell when we checked in. The service was great, with helpful staff always ready to assist, although there were some strange individuals in the lobby. The location was ideal, close to the town center and main train station, making it easy to move around Munich. The dining options were good, although not free, but located conveniently across the street from the train station. Overall, a decent value for the money.
