This is the hotel - everything is just about being average! Room is small, limited everything. Just close to train station.

Great location and a good budget option. The family room was very small, even compared to another A&O in Cologne. It git very warm and uncomfortable in the room in July.

Small room, but ok for a few days. No tea or coffee making facilities. Being a hostel I expected a communal kitchen where we could make our own coffee or prepare food.

Very close to the train station. Very clean and spacious room for a hostel. Breakfast on site, pretty good eats for 9euros. Cheaper than other restaurants in the area. Bar on site. Highly recommend!

This hotel is so bad in terms of hall cleaning. No Kitchen, the Heating was not working. Used shampoo and hand wash gel. You feel like you are living in 1880s, with its price you can get a really better hotel, so disappointed.

Prison Cell Beds. Very disappointing.
I booked a long weekend stay at the A&O München Hauptbahnhof as part of a leisure trip through Germany. It was NFL Football weekend and so when this showed up at just over £60 a night I was pleased. The pictures on the website looked lovely, and I made my booking. The positive side of the hotel is its location. It’s super central and literally 3 mins walk from the Hauptbahnhof Exit. That’s pretty much it sadly. I’ve not stayed in such an uncomfortable hotel for quite some time and I’ve never been so keen for check out time to arrive. I looked at taking it on the chin and booking another hotel, but with the football everything was full and the few rooms left were very very expensive. I had a private single room with a private bathroom. Room 605. I don’t think I’ve ever stayed anywhere so soulless and lacking in everything. The beds were as near to being in a prison cell as I can imagine, beyond uncomfortable with cheap foam mattresses that have plastic wrapping. I hardly slept throughout my trip and dreaded going back there each evening. The room was incredibly depressing and the tv reception was awful. It did have a decent bathroom, though the shower needed to be run for a good 5 minutes before the water was warm enough to shower with. Cleanliness standards were good, so good that my room absolutely stank of bleach on arrival, which lingered. I guess you can’t fault them for that, given that we’ve just come out of a pandemic. The communal areas are scruffy and real

Property was adequate for 1-2 nights stay in Munich. Close to the train station but area around the property doesn't have much else. Our room stunk of cigarette smoke, even though there are clear signs around the property saying no smoking and their was no A/C in the room.

We had a room for 4, with a double bed and set of bunk beds. Altogether it was a bit tight for 4, but adequate. The room feels like a dorm room, with sparse furnishings, and a private bath. The location is convenient to the train station, and on the metro line. Decent and adequate, but nothing special.

Covid restrictions changed shortly before our stay that would have made illegal for my wife and I to enter the hotel. I requested a cancellation to our booking but this was flatly refused by them hotel staff. Hotels.com support staff were initially helpful but quickly stopped responding.

Ok place, fairly central location
Located about 5min walk from the central train station (amd maybe 10min from the Hackebrucke bus station) it is easily reachable - but current works closed the tram traffic right in front so it is a bit further walk for the closest transport. Rather basic property, with some wear & tear visible and cleanliness not exactly perfect - but it covers the basics if you want to stay fairly close to the city centre.

Great location but a bit dirty
The hotel was in a very good location, very close to the train station and restaurants. Check in/out was very fast and easy. The room itself was a bit dirty. There were dark stains in the toilet and there was a crack in the seal around it so a bad smell was always coming up. The floor was a bit dirty as well.

The staff are friendly enough and try their best with what they have to work with. Rooms at first glance are okay, however on day 2 of our stay my wife found bed bugs all over the bedsheets after coming back from a long day out. That freaked us out. We were worried about the bugs, possibly biting our kids when they asleep the night before or getting into our luggage and infecting all our other clothing. We when down to change rooms but couldn't get a room of the same size. Even worse there was another couple who was given a room which was already given to someone else, waiting there for 2 hours before us and still waiting when we were there. They got a rude surprise when they open the room door after getting their keys. Their room was already occupied! In any case, after a 3 hour wait for us, we were finally given a single bedder at the end which was barely space for 2. The rest of us (we are a family of 4) had to bunk in another room with my brother's family. We are supposed to get a some sort of refund but 2 cities, 2 hotels and 5 days later still not even a 'peep' from A&O Hotels. I have travelled over 300000 miles and stayed in a lot of hotels in the last 7 years. This is the worst hotel of them all. This is also my 4th stay in Munich. We will never stay in A&O ever again!

Terrible place to stay
The room was dirty, I found dried blood on one of the walls. Markings all over the walls, looks like they had not been clean since the day the place opened. No AC anywhere, made for an uncomfortable sleep at night. I could hear people on boths sides of my room. The toilet was not very clean and the sink had a crack in it. I am in the process of canceling 2 of the 3 nights I booked as I was stuck there for the night. I would not recommend this hotel to anyone. I would add more photos, but the system is not loading passed 3 photos

Beds are hard and covered in plastic? The only reason to choose this hotel is because of the proximity to octoberfest area and close to the Hauptbahnhof.

Find a Place With AC
Good location near train station. We didn't hear any trains. Safe area. No AC so we had to open windows. Unfortunately, lots of city street sounds on front side of hotel. Street car stops right out front every 10-15 mins. Trash truck comes at 6:30am. They gave us a room on back side of hotel next night. Much better during night. We found out construction on place behind hotel starts at 7am. That's ok because that's when we set our alarms anyway. Find a place with AC if for no other reason than to drown out city street sounds.
