Reviews for Wombats City Hostel

Review 1：Bed was creaky The bathroom floor got dirty very quickly.

Review 2：Beds were comfy!!! The location, it was close to the train station/ and the centre of the city. Plus easy to get too from the bus station. Staff were quite friendly. Wifi was okay even tho I couldn't get it on my iPod. Lockers - lock with a key card.

Review 3：Its a really nice hostel, very close to the central station and just 10min to walk to the city centre. Rooms were clean and everyone had a socket and a lamp at his bed. The "living room" with hammocks is pretty nice and at the bar i met a lot of friendly people.

Review 4：I stayed in a 6-bed dorm, but I thought the room was a bit small for 6 people. No hair dryer in the room.

Review 5：The common area is well design and comfortable. The location is good and convenient to go to anywhere by public transport.

Review 6：Always love staying at Wombats. Second time at this location and I’d highly recommend it for solo or group travelers. It’s super easy to meet other people and they have a fun bar and great common area. The location is perfect right next to the main train station and a five minute walk to the city center. Rooms are clean and each has a personal locker. Staff couldn’t be more friendly and helpful, especially Tom. They’ll give you directions and suggestions for anything!

Review 7：Any paper towel in lavatories would be nice. Is not clean enough especially the bathrooms. No private baggage locker,if there is it is not offered as a option

Review 8：Location is perfect

Review 9：The employees of the evening/night should be more polite with customers.

Review 10：Friendly environment. Perfect position for a short stay and visit the city (close to city centre and central train station).

Review 11：The staff are great, the bar is a good place to meet people, the breakfast was a good deal for the money paid. Every bed has a small shelf and plugs, so that you can conviently charge your phones.

Review 12：- Toilet is old and can get dirty fairly quickly depending on occupants - Toilet located in bunk room, this meant that there will be noise if someone showers late at night or early in the morning - Bed makes sound every time you turn

Review 13：- The reception was well informed about places of interest around Munich - One free drink! - Two lifts that take you up to your room - Big courtyard for you to chill - Key access card to your room is access to your locker as well, very convenient - There is a shared toilet along the corridor which is very clean (not commonly used) - Reception is 24hrs (no early check out hassle) - Located very close to the main train station - Power point right next to bed

Review 14：Nothing at all.

Review 15：My experience was awesome! had a good stay and coolest roommates, nice and helpful staff, clean and comfortable place, clean facilities, calm during morning, crazy at night, good wifi connection in my room 1st floor, walking distance from the train going to the airport. If ever ill cross path in Munich again definitely i will stay here.

Review 16：Everything was good, except the left luggage room was not very secure and the staff would let you take whichever bag in the luggage room as they are not tagged

Review 17：The location was great and the in room locker was very secure and easy to use with our own cards.

Review 18：Jzt one thing ... Chk in z at 2 pm ... Plz go around 2 pm only ... Otherwise u have to b in lobby...

Review 19：Itz my first tym in a hostel.. Really amazed.staff atmosphere everything was gud.will stay again.

Review 20：One of the staff members could have been a little more polite

Review 21：The nice big open spaces both in accommodation and in common areas! Plus the bar is awesome!!

Review 22：Poor wifi, comes and goes, slow

Review 23：Hostel is modern and comfortable with comfy common areas incl. hammocks. Breakfast is extra but really good. Near train station but quite safe

Review 24：they should have some rules for the shared rooms because I got there at 10:30pm and everyone was already laying down on their bed. I couldn't turn on the lights to make my bed. Also, the girl at the bar was kind of grumpy. after a certain hour there is no common area to hang out in, which kind of sucks if you want to talk to people.

Review 25：the hostel was in a great location because it is in the center and there are a lot of other hostels around where you can meet people. it has a bar and a free tour where you can meet people.

Review 26：Location! yes, it's in the city center yet there are a lot of foreiners and immigrants around, which makes this place specific. A lot of very Yong people in a hostel, be prepared to all night noise. I'd highly recommend another hostel which is might be in another part of the city, cause Munchen is great! But not in this railway station area

Review 27：Nice lounge before 10 pm, then a crowd of youth coming. Good that the bathroom was in a room. This is abig plus

Review 28：Wombats stays in a great location, besides Munich's central station. The place is incredible, with one amazing atmosphere, full of young people from all around the world. They offer a delicious and cheap breakfast and the staff is really good.

Review 29：The wifi tended to disconnect a lot, and sometimes would be quite slow. This could've been due to high demand/usage.

Review 30：The staff were friendly and helpful, the location was very convenient, for transport and the university. The room was nice as was the areas for relaxing, social areas, bar etc. Very good value.

Review 31：thw wifi wasn't good

Review 32：In general i enjoyed the place, its comfortable and clean and the staff is great. You could take small tours daily troughout the city or other places nearby

Review 33：The room was very hot and we couldn't keep the windows open due to the noise of the bar. The heat and stuffiness were so unbearable that it was hard to sleep. It was ver expensive for having six beds per room.

Review 34：It was in a good location, near the central station.

Review 35：the wifi is really really weak and i even cannot connect that!!!!!!

Review 36：the staff is very nice and helpful. Also, the location is very convenient because it is just take you 5 mins to central station

Review 37：Having only one bathroom for 6 people was slightly difficult. In other hostels where I've stayed, there are 2 small bathrooms, one with a toilet and sink, and one with a shower and sink, so someone can use the sink to brush their teeth or something while someone else showers. I also don't know how often the bathrooms were cleaned, but it wasn't enough.

Review 38：The central area of Munich is not a very good area so you have quite a ways to walk before you get to the better parts, but this is not a fault of the hostel really as they are conveniently located near the train station.

Review 39：Very close to the central train station, well organized and clean rooms with good bathroom facilities. Staff were good.

Review 40：Had a discussion while checking in. It's not allowed by for a hostel to keep your ID card and hold it as a depossit. Only government, Banks and casino's can ask for it. It's because of identity fraud. I wasn't happy when they asked for it as a depossit and asked them to make a copy of it (without my SSN) I had to pay 5,- for making a copy. If I known they would ask 5,- I would have made a copy myself. He said; Well, welcome to Germany." It's sad when someone says it when this has nothing to do with the country, but has something to do with the hostel. After the discussion the guy was frustrated, did the check in and didn't explame me anything about the hostel etc. Having a discussion is okay, but please be a proffesional in your job and don't get frustrated when someone doesn't agree with you. a pleasent check-in is importent for the rest of the stay.

Review 41：very close to the trainstation and citycentre

Review 42：Streetside rooms could be abit noisy at night. But, to be expected.

Review 43：Location close to train was great. Staff always friendly and helpful. Bar was fun and friendly.

Review 44：The bathroom has no floor towel so it can be really frustrated if you hate wet floor and you have to shower after others

Review 45：This is my first time in Munich and I really enjoyed the city. As well as the city, Wombats city hostel was excellent. Nice staff and nice place. You wouldn't regret staying here when you are in Munich.

Review 46：the wifi is really bad... the bar maybe noisy at night

Review 47：it is a huge hostel, with the scale of a big hotel... lots of rooms and lots of youths. there is a bar at first floor with quite a space. there is also a relax garden.

Review 48：The free wifi didn't work as well- connection was not good enough.

Review 49：Loved the atmosphere, the cleanliness, the comfortable beds (we had a private room with bathroom) and the location!

Review 50：This hostel is loud, and the staff is very strict on their 10 AM check out time. A member will come into your room and kick you out if aren't down there at 10. The bar was too noisy and the wifi only works in the sitting areas. I realize that hostels are different from hotels but I should have to make my own bed.

Review 51：I liked the central location to the city center and train center.

Review 52：The bed was really creaky and it could get really loud sometimes. The price I paid was a bit expensive around 20 euros a night (compared to hostels in Berlin perhaps). The wifi was pretty horrendous.

Review 53：It was very clean and the atmosphere was really good. Especially the interesting "garden" area. The hostel definitely gives off a party vibe. I thought it was really easy to meet new people and the location is just outside the train station so you don't have to carry around your luggage for long. It's also within walking distance (~10 min) to Marienplatz.

Review 54：Wi-fi was a bit average compared to others, but still functioned.

Review 55：Staff were very friendly. Is basically accross the road from Munich's main train station. Breakfast was very varied and filling for €4.30 Dinner wasnt bad at the bar either

Review 56：Friendliest staff with the warmest welcome, they were willing to help with any queries I had. Great, clean rooms and fantastic 'hang out ares'.

Review 57：quick check-in and out, nice staff, spacious bed, even with lamp, great cleanliness, elevator, bar, drink & map for free, luggage store room & free lockers, very close to main railway station

Review 58：One of the staff were no polite. Didn't help me at the first minutes at the checking. At the first, he was ironic and said "I have no idea what are you speaking about, man!" so rude and stupid just because he didn't get my English accent. That's not a way to receive anyone! The bedroom makes noise a lot!!!!!!!! They could change all of them! They hold your ID until checkout. I don't know if that comes from a law, but the hostel holded my personal ID. That is no safe! It's weird! I don't recommend it!!!!

Review 59：Localization is so great. You're in the center of the city. It's safe. There are lockers.

Review 60：The wifi is really unstable during the night. It improves a bit after around 10pm but is still pretty bad. It's a noisy street so better to have windows shut completely at night.

Review 61：Friendly staff who will answer any question about the hostel and Munich itself. Breakfast was good too.

Review 62：Internet: wifi was slow at times. Never strong. Sometimes functional. Noise: the room was facing the street, which meant noise till 3 am. Also another person snored a lot...but this wasn't the hostel's fault. Out of the four nights, I never slept through the night.

Review 63：Location: close to the center. One side goes to Marienplatz which was great. The other side seemed like the bad part of the town. But I always felt safe. Atmosphere: relaxed Space: relatively large room for 6 bed dorm Clean: the linens, the bathroom, the room were all clean Staff: hostel staff was welcoming and helpful whenever I needed

Review 64：At the hearth of the City Centre, 200 metres to the Main Train Station & Underground Hub, Ploite nd Helpful Personnel, Nice breakfast that keeps you energised throughout the day

Review 65：The wifi was very poor in the rooms, but I was at least able to send a few messages and emails, it just took patience. If you have trouble sleeping in loud places, this may not be for you, as the common area is very loud until past midnight and the room I was in looked onto it through a window.

Review 66：This place is very reasonably priced. The location is so great... 5 mins from the train station and was easy to find. Additionally, they have 24h front desk, and the staff is so readily available and willing to help. I was really pleased with my experience here. Also, the lockers function with your room key, so no need to bring your own lock. The breakfast is amazing! Worth the 4.30 euro.

Review 67：Noise from the street. the security of the luggage store should be improved, coz u take out your luggage yourself without checking by the staff .

Review 68：Friendly service, clean

Review 69：POS Machine wasn't working for some reason so I couldn't pay by Credit Card

Review 70：Central location, good facilities, friendly, well-educated and smiling staff, Superb open-buffet breakfast (extra 4.3 Euro),

Review 71：Bad wifi service, frequently the connection is disconnected.

Review 72：Good location, just a few minutes from central station. And many stores and restraunts around there.

Review 73：There's no description on the booking that the room is a mixed dormitory. Someone went in and out in the midnight and 2:00am and 6:00 am. It is impossible to sleep almost the whole night. Booked two nights , but just stayed in one.Terrible experience.

Review 74：Good location

Review 75：Noisy outside. I arrived late and tired to find out the guest has to organize its own bed and also when you check out. For the price, that service should be included.

Review 76：Personal was really friendly and the bar has a good ambient.

Review 77：for young traveller it could be good. But up to a.m. 1:30 in some domitoryrooms were so loud. they sang and dance on the floor and knock the other rooms violent. You can sleep well from 1:30 A.M. It was same last Years in twin room in this hostel.

Review 78：The Price what i got from Booking.com was different form the price in their system. but they accept without words the price of Booking.com. the location is super.

Review 79：the receptionist was super nice and friendly. The hostel itself was fantastic, the 6 people dorm room was large, had bright windows and clean bathrooms. the atmosphere at the hostel was also great, and the free drink at the bar was a pleasant surprise! :) 10/10 would recommend

Review 80：- Poor WiFi, didn't work well at the room or in any common area. When I told the reception, they said "yeah, we know, but that's it". I expected a little bit more - My (big) backpack didn't fit on the lockers in the room. Had to leave outside with padlock on it. - Lift veeeery small. Didn't fit comfortably my dad and me with the bags

Review 81：- Beautiful common area - Bar inside the hostel with welcome drink - Great variety on breakfast - Everything in favour of meet new people

Review 82：Wireless connection is really bad.

Review 83：I liked staying in a roomy and cozy hostel that provides security on the highest level. Staff are really personable and ready to help.

Review 84：Seems like Under construction when I was staying there

Review 85：service and staff are great. Location is fine，locating in China town，in 20 mins walking distance to City center…good money value.

Review 86：I don't want staff who speak korean. It could be nice that many staffs in hostel tried to learning korean, but in my case, it seem steange.

Review 87：Many foreigner

Review 88：A little noisy at night. And especially, there were some cheeky guys.. knocked the door and dispeared before i and the other room's guys went out to check. And turned off the light when i was in public toilet to do my things.. but its not hostel's fault

Review 89：Nice staff and they were really kind at every people. It made this hostel look good. Room was clean and tidy and especially, breakfast was very nice and it's not that expensive and much better than the other hostel. Its nice hostel. And location was perfect and near the main station.

Review 90：The outside of the hostel was very noise even over the midnight.

Review 91：It was just 2 mins from hbf. Staffs in the reception were very kind. They let us use their microwave and hot water. Wifi performed well even in our room. The restaurant was very noisy but full of people's vigor.

Review 92：Wifi was a bit slow and lousy at times.

Review 93：Welcomed me with a map of the city and were ready with a few suggestions/recommendations of things to do in Munich. Great place and location for travellers to go about Munich without getting lost.

Review 94：Wifi connection, but I did survive.

Review 95：There are many good things about this hostel, staff are always keen to help tou, I love the bar due to they play good music and the price of the beer is the cheapest I. Found in the city and is only for guests, so no crazy people coming from outside. Bedroom was very clean but a little bit hot at night. In general, this is the hostel where you have to stay if you are backpacking or staying few days in Munich.

Review 96：The only thing bad was the wifi. Although my phone said that it had full signal, the actual speed of the connection was terrible. I couldn't watch my Youtube videos. Even when I lowered the quality settings, I still had trouble loading the videos.

Review 97：The rooms were big and comfortable. The lounge area near the bar is great for relaxing. It's like its own little oasis in the middle of all the chaos.

Review 98：Overall, the hostel is strongly recommended. However, the only concern is the bathroom of the ensuite. 1. The power of the shower is a bit weak. 2. Except fort he shower area, it was a bit smelly. Changing or cleaning the nonskid carpet would be suggested.

Review 99：1. There is a bathroom/toilet in the 6 mixed room is quite convenient. And the exhaust fan worked well to keep it dry all the time. 2. I requested for the female room that has been arranged is very thankful. 3. The staff provided good services is so appreciated. 4. A locker room for the early arrival and late departure to leave luggages is secured. 5. One free drink is a nice opportunity to relax. 6. The bed is very comfortable for sleep; the personal electric locker in the bedroom is good also. 7. The location is easy to reach the main station(only 3-min walk).

Review 100：The wifi only allowed you to send basic messages. It wasn't fast enough to surf the wrb 95% of the time which was a real problem. If you are after sleep before 11 it is loud, but it wasn't a problem for us.

Review 101：The atmosphere and hostel in general was really fun, friendly and an all round positive experience. The 6 bed dorm room was very spacious and the bar was open and well laid out.

Review 102：Becausd the hostel is so big, you might have quite a hard time getting to know people as they seemed to travel mostly in groups and people really didn't seem to be interested in making new friends. But that was only my experience, and I definitely can't say that everyone will have the same experiences as I had. Apart from this, there could be more plugs and adaptors available.

Review 103：First of all, the staff was amazing! When I arrived, I had just lost my credit card and was very nervous, but Nier (sorry if I spelled wrong) was very kind to help me cancel the card. All times I needed help from the front I was very well treated. The Bar is also great, though my roomates were not so friendly. The location (near the Hauptbanhof and ealking distance from almost most important points) was crutial and overall was a great place to stay.

Review 104：The pillows are very flat. The blankets are thin. The wifi only works in public places! Or in your room on the floor haha. Overall it was a really great hostel, one of the best I've stayed at.

Review 105：Very close to Munich hbf train station. Close to our tour departure so this location was perfect for us! Very clean and well presented. Private bathrooms are a plus! Staff very friendly. Breakfast very very good for the price. Overall a really nice and homey hostel! We loved it.

Review 106：nothing

Review 107：Close to train station, clean, inexpensive for Munchen prices, staff is friendly. Bar in basement and reasonably price. Lots of places to eat cheaply. I only spent a night.

Review 108：Great common room, and attentive staff. The toilet got blocked in our room and was fixed really quickly. Location was also great as you could take any S bahn line to get home.

Review 109：The WiFi doesnt work properly, lots of cuts.

Review 110：Excellent location next to the main train station. Its true its not the best neigbourhood in Munich, but not dangerous at all. There are lockers in the room, and they open with the room card, so u dont need a padlock

Review 111：There's no kitchen for guests (in a city with some of the bests sausages of the world with good prices in the supermarket). If you need internet for something, forget it. It's slow like 25 years ago on south America...

Review 112：Localization.

Review 113：The bar area often smelled like beer from the night before and the wifi wasn't the strongest.

Review 114：The staff were great, friendly and helpful, the breakfast and bar services were good and it seemed that everything a traveler may need or want was catered for, all at a very good price.

Review 115：The lifts are small and narrow. Bathroom in the dorm room a bit small and narrow.

Review 116：Very good location, the ambiance at the lobby looks very cheerful and the bar is nicely decorated... really good. very clean hostel and very friendly staff.

Review 117：the facilities in the shower room is not comfortable to use, and one of the receptionist speaks too fast

Review 118：great location, nice and comparatively spacious room

Review 119：The staff is great. The hostel is modern, clean and tidy. I love the covered common room, the bar. They offer a free welcome drink, a lot of information about what to do in the city, tour. Definitely recommend!

Review 120：On the website I'm pretty sure it said breakfast was included, but we had to pay extra. Not that big of a deal though.

Review 121：Real nice hostel, one of the nicest I think I've been to. Staff was nice, they give free tours, and other people at the hostel are friendly!

Review 122：the wifi speed need improvement, especially on peak hours.

Review 123：facilities are well prepared. the atmosphere of this hostel. even the breakfast is not included, it is still worth it. i stayed in 3 different hostel, this is the best one.

Review 124：Sometimes people were a little loud at night but I still fell asleep.

Review 125：I love how Wombats is right next to the Central Station. The rooms were spacious. Breakfast delicious.

Review 126：- Loud - Almost non-existent wifi - Very small rooms - Vibe a bit too young and party-oriented for 30-something travelers

Review 127：- Great location if you need a place to crash close to the train station - Clean - Good price

Review 128：Loud due to all the people plus the downstairs bar. Wifi kept cutting out but was bearable. Given your own linen and need to dress your own bed.

Review 129：Clean and safe. Big lockers and individual key cards for security. Ensuite bathroom was clean and modern. Convenient location next to the train station and 10 minute walk from the Glockenspiel. Friendly staff but always busy.

Review 130：- surrounding of the hostel is quite dirty and noisy (maybe also a bit dangerous during the night)

Review 131：- quite silent (due to the location in the upper floor) - very clean and new looking - very good location at the corner of the Central station

Review 132：a bit noisy at night, no place to fill water.

Review 133：The place was clean and within walking distance from the center. Breakfast was good and worth every cent. good value for money.

Review 134：Hostel is very noisy and its difficult to sleep.

Review 135：If you are young and want to party the night away then this is the place for you. Staff are really friendly, good facilities and bar.

Review 136：Nothing.

Review 137：The location and facility are very good, especially for whom travel alone. The staff are also very friendly. It is free to have a glass of beer with roommates. BRAVO!

Review 138：They have a bar in the same building, same entrance. Party goes EVERY day till 2 a.m. minimum. And in summer you have to open the window, for air. But the closed window could barely save you - noise is too loud. I had a pair of earplugs, otherwise I would have been awake all night. You now do the math

Review 139：Comfortable beds, rather kindly staff, well secured (you can't get into the living area without a card). Location is perfect, you are right in center, Ubahn Hbf in 1 min walking.

The Fine Print

This arrangement can be made upon arrival.Please email the hostel at least 24 hours in advance if you would like an all-female dormitory.Specific beds (e.g. on the lower bunk) cannot be reserved in advance, but upon arrival you can make arrangements with the other guests in the room.
