a&o München Laim

A] Cimex lectuarius / bed bugs /Wanzen / punaises de lit / that I encountered in the room #304. B] noisy location between a main railway line & a main avenue with car traffic.

Incredibly average... HAS BED BUGS...

Heavy bed bugs infestation makes this place a poor choice. Breakfast and a kitchen available, but the railroad along the building is noisy 20 h/day. 12 min. distance from the station makes its location less convenient, although most S lines run through the station. No bike rentals, coffee machine often out of order, kitchen in poor sanitary condition, crowd comprised of construction workers by most part. Best avoided.

It was basicaly the worst „hotel” (If you can call it a hotel) in my life (and i am traveling a lot). Why? 1. I was very badely bitten by bed bugs, like around 30 bites allover my body - we are lucky it’s didnt happen to our children who were traveling that night) 2. Everything - starting from reception, through corridor and our room - was very dirty, like when I enter the room I said to my husband: omg, where did you bring me? 3. Matraces are very hard and uncomfortable The worst were bed bugs and the fact that since almost one week I am fighting with pain and itchiness. I would never recommend this to anybody and it’s me first time ever so negative opinion about any hotel. Avoid that place.

Avoid at all costs. We had no other choice for mid price hotels/hostels during Octoberfest despite booking back in May so thought we'd take a chance on this place despite reading mixed reviews. Biggest regret. Paid more at time of booking for 4 bed dorm but was placed into 6 bed all female (we are M/F couple). Staff were clueless and weren't even aware of this at check in and just gave us keys. We only found out once we entered the room to the surprise of another female guest. Staff did not care when we told them and instead moved us to another mixed 6 bed dorm. They were extremely unhelpful when we asked to to refund price difference of 4vs6 dorm, instead giving us a number to call their manager by ourselves! The room, common areas and hallways were all filthy and stained with foul odour, although the bathroom inside our room was OK. Security is non existent and people often sneak extra people into the room to sleep overnight. Only 4 lockers despite 6 beds. Woken by drunk roomates in the early morning for all 3 nights we stayed. Luck of the draw as to whether your room faces the train line, in which case you may as well forget about sleep due to trains passing every few mins. Beds are coated in vinyl, presumably because of their bed bug problem (see other reviews) which makes for a sweaty uncomfortable night. All mattresses the same sinking type which lead to a sore spine (and I only weigh 60kg). Tldr: the low ratings for this place are warranted! Don't make the same mistake as us if you have the choice (should be possible outside of Oktoberfest). I have stayed in many other hostels and this is hands down the worst experience.
