Terrible hostel. Stayed here for two nights. In the evening of the second day I came tired. The cleaning lady took my bed linen during the day. I had to spend the night in my clothes, without bed linen. In the morning I waited 2.5 hours during working hours for one of the employees to come. So no one came. The reception works according to a schedule known only to them and not during the stated working hours. I wrote a letter and asked to somehow compensate for the problems that had arisen, the nerves and the wasted time. They rudely told me that they would not compensate me for anything. They push people out of the hostel to make money and they don't care about their reputation.

Centrally yet quietly located. The rooms, bathrooms and also the kitchen were clean.Unfortunately, the seats outside were often locked because there was no one there in the morning who could open the door and from whom you could buy a coffee.

The rooms serve their purpose, price and location are good. Unfortunately it closes early, so you can only drink and chat in the lounge. But the employees are nice and as accommodating as possible in this regard.

There was a terrible smell of sweat and feet in the kitchen and room. I think it's not ventilated.There wasn't a beer available in the bar.

Bedding had to be made by yourself.Bathrooms also needed a complete renovation. Beds were very special and too narrow. I think you could get some out of it that would make you feel good.

The heater was not working in this cold. Further, only one light is there in the room, no bed lights are available. Not recommended.

It was a nice hostel, especially for the price. The dorms are nice and small and the beds were comfortable although it would have been nice to have a plug next to the bed. Bathrooms were fine, but one of the showers was really dirty.

Overall, the Max Hostel is quite OK. It is very centrally located, so you can walk into the city and the main station. The women's dormitory is satisfactory. There are lockable lockers. The bathrooms are outside the room, but there are enough sanitary facilities available. One disadvantage is that the reception is only open in the evenings. What I unfortunately found very unpleasant were some male guests in the hostel who seemed to have settled there permanently. As a woman, I didn't feel particularly comfortable there.

Rooms and sanitary facilities are simple, but neat and clean. The location is quiet and at the same time fairly central. You can't expect much service. But the check-in employee was friendly. If you are looking for simple and cheap accommodation, you can find it here, but you should be prepared to accept shared showers.

Budget hostel. It is located only meters from the city center and from the Bonn main station. Lovely and cool place. The facility has both shared rooms and individual rooms for less than 40 Euros.

If someone is going to visit Bonn and has a small financial budget, it is recommended to stay at the Max hostel. It is located a few minutes walk from the BonnOld Town and a short distance from the train station and bus stops. The hostel is very clean, there are many bathrooms with showers and a large kitchen where you can prepare your own meal or tea. During check-in, the friendly owner Michael will provide all the necessary information regarding your stay. I definitely recommend it. P.S. There is a dance school in the same building, so if anyone would like to take a few lessons, this is a great opportunity.😀😀😀😀

Found Max Hostel by chance on the internet because we wanted to stay somewhere cheaper. I booked 6 bed rooms for women. It was the first time, I usually booked hotel rooms. I have to say...it's fine, you get to know a lot of people and it's a bit reminiscent of a youth hostel. (but not so dirty!) Price/performance ratio is great...you have what you need (bed linen and WiFi included in the price with inside) and towels you get for €1.50) and it's clean. Collective showers and toilets are really clean for the amount of people who are constantly changing.And that for just under €26 a night!Very friendly and nice staff!Conclusion: I'll book again because it's absolutely acceptable for an overnight stay!Thumbs up 👍

It was very good for students on a short trip, the rooms were clean.Also positive:Lockable cupboard in the roomLots of toilets/showers so you don't have to wait foreverYou can let yourself in late in the evening using your key cardWiFi works, but always has to be re-entered. It was exactly the right fit for our needs, thanks to the good location with lots of dining options within walking distance.We didn't use the kitchen so I can't say much about it, but it looked well equipped & there is a sofa in the lounge area.

The hostel was in a great location for our excursion destinations and there was a great playground and a football field right next to it.Minus points:1) Aggressive permanent guest, which has also been mentioned in other reviews. Sometimes it gets physical. Absolutely disgraceful. As if he owned the hostel. Has his stuff everywhere. Use the kitchen for hours as a single person.2) Emergency phone number doesn't work - We were assigned a parking space for a stroller. But the next morning it was locked up and no staff was present. The emergency number was also not manned.3) Emergency exit goes through a rented room that is lockable.4) When showering you stand deep in the water because the drains are closed.5) Not all rooms have closets.
