“Location is a definite plus, putting you right in Leipzig's heart and within a short walk of the stadium and train station. Rooms offer practical comfort, especially the ensuite bathrooms in the dorms. I think it's a solid choice for a no-frills stay, though some have mentioned a less social atmosphere.”
