Pros: Great location, it is right by a courtyard with a church so we had a great view from the room. The room was very big and comfortable! We loved Salzburg!!! It is about 5 minutes walking from the very heart of the historic district which was really fun to explore!! PRO TIP: Buy the Salzburg card! It is really worth it! Great place to stay, friendly staff (although they do not speak English) Definitely recommend staying here!

However, because of the heat wave , the excellent large windows were helpful only part of the time so that there were hours in which we practically suffered because of the no fan standing ventilator strict policy

Pros: This is not a standard hotel. The shower room is shared, the toilet is half a story below, the personnel is just a mother and her son, they have no hotel schooling and not much foreign language - but it works! The building is part of the 14th century city wall, which makes its charm, but also its limitations. Bedroom 5 very comfortable, with wash hand basin, table and chairs, and a lovely view of the dome’s cupolas.

Pros: Locatiom is great. The room with balcony and private bathroom is spacious. Nice view from the balcony
Cons: You hear all from the hallway, rooms that have bathroom shared - banging door since 7am as people are getting up and using toilet and shower so recommend using earplugs. The pillows are too large, hard to sleep on, not healthy to the spine

8,8 Excellent
Pros: Staff were great and gave good advice.
Cons: A layout of the room would be handy. we thought that the layout of the room was a bit different from the picture. The bunkbeds appeared to be a bit apart from the double bed. It was very compact.
3,8 Mediocre
Pros:
Cons: Ventilation in the room is bad. No a/c and it is too noisy (very busy road in front of the hotel) to open the windows. Room was not clean. Towels were so thin that you cannot dry yourself properly. Beds are not comfortable. It is called Meininger City Center!? It is about 2 km from the hotel to the old city at the other side of the river. We were happy to walk the distance but do not advertise the hotel as city center. At best it is near the city center. All in all it can be best described as a youth hostel. But for € 771,60 for 4 nights (without breakfast but including parking garage) I expected something better. Anyway, not my hotel and no next time.

Pros: The staff is friendly and welcoming.. however, the receptionist is not 24 hours.
Cons: As mentioned before, the reception is not 24 hours. So it is really not recommended for those want to keep the bag or luggage before check in and do early checkout. The wifi is also disappointing. The location is quite isolated eventhough there is a bus stop nearby but it takes 20 minutes walk. So it is quite difficult to find this hostel. Im sorry im not recommended to stay here.

Pros: Overall it's good
