Hi Antonio, great that you found the rating function. probably right next to the message function. There you would have found your check-in information already 1 day before arrival (as communicated several times). But even when you were standing in front of a closed door, you were answered within 3! minutes. if you like to TALK to instead of texting, you can always just call. Or you can talk to one of our employees onsite every day from 8-10am. Keep your eyes open when booking - the room is pictured exactly as it was booked. If you hadn't just looked at the price, you would have seen the room size beforehand. well - worst nightmare accommodation in a clean, bright, quiet design room. hotel style towels and bed linen included. I can understand that. Must have been really horrible. cheersno service Daniel

It was economical and the only game in town. There is 1 bathroom per floor of potentially 8 people, at least. There is no kitchen. There are a bank of small lovers in the hallway, but no security in the rooms.

Small but very comfortable hotel. Although reception only opens after 16:00 - we were able to drop our luggage and return later after our visit to the castles. Great value for money.

The room was very small. The double bed was small and only accessible by ladder. The ladies lounge had 1 toilet and 2 very small showers. It was not very easy to find. Had to park a distance away. I would not recommend this hostel for anyone over the age of 20. Room rate was high for a hostel w/ little charm .

This is a great little hostel for those en route to Nuschwanstein or doing other activities in the area. The hostel is clean with the main area separate from the rooms so you can sit and talk without disturbing anyone. The rooms are clean and hostel expectations are reasonable for keeping things tidy and safe. Fussen is a nice small town and Christian, the owner of the hostel is friendly and has lots of tips about getting around and will give you a rental bike if needed. Laundry is available. The breakfast was really nicely prepared. I recommend this hostel highly if you are going towards the mountains. Very comfortable experience!

Pricey
My heart goes out to the dude who was running this place. He was obviously alone, and he obviously doesn’t love the service industry - many things seemed like an inconvenience to him. The room was clean, but I think a 4pm check in is too late, and you have to hike a LOT of stairs to get to the room or use the restroom

It's really, really, really small. The wife hated that the womens bathroom and showers were a floor below us. The mens showers and bathroom was on my floor, but the bathroom/showers were amazingly small. Parking was difficult (A Fussen problem, not necessarily the fault of the hostel). It's nowhere near the castles. I get that it's a Hostel (I stay in hostels all the time), but the cost vs delivery just didn't add up....it would have been better to stay in Munich and travel via train.

Magical, cozy and charming b&b feel in town.
Cozy and charming little b&b feel. Very nice staff. For a dorm room it was the most well made beds on my entire euro trip. Like I was at a diss ski chateau. Breakfast was ready and lid out for me on table in morning. I met a few other travellers and talked over a few beers that we bought across the street after bar was closed. Magical

Quaint Stay In Fussen
We had a wonderful stay at Old Kings. Be advised if you are traveling here though, that no one is usually available at the desk until 4pm and you will most likely not be able to access the building earlier. We thought we might be able to leave our luggage at the hostel when we arrived in the morning, but weren't. No big deal at all since the main station in Fussen is about a 5 minute walk and has luggage storage available though. In regards to the location, it is perfectly situated right downtown and walking distance to a plethora of cute shops, as well as the main station, and nearby sites such as the Kalvarienburg hike. Upon check-in we were given a map as well as some suggestions of things to do which was very helpful. Our room was very clean and looked out over the adorable street below. We weren't given towels at first (which were supposed to be provided for private rooms), but once someone arrived in the morning they gladly gave us a couple. The women's bathroom has two showers, but only one toilet. Since my husband and I came in more of an off season this was no problem at all. The bathroom was also very tidy. Overall, I would definitely recommend Little Kings if you are looking for simple accommodations. It is well-kept with a wonderful location.

Outstanding hostel!
Spent one night in Fussen, Germany while visiting Neuschwanstein Castle. This little gem of a hostel is located smack dab in the middle of the old city center and is within walking distance from the train station. Outstanding hospitality from the owner, very clean and very comfortable facilities. You won't be disappointed.

Very nice and clean hostel. Very comfortable! Location is great and close to the station. The atmosphere is not amazing tho. Because there’s only a ‘café’ open at 8-10am and there’s no bar it’s hard to meet new people as a solo traveler. The lockers in the dorm are really small so you won’t be able to put all your stuff in a locker. Overall a great hostel if you’re looking for a relaxed place.

Hallo Theo, Danke für dein Feedback. Es tut uns sehr leid zu hören, dass euer Schlaf durch den Bass aus unserer Anlage gestört wurde. Es ist natürlich nicht unsere Absicht, euch Unannehmlichkeiten zu bereiten!Wir möchten dennoch darauf hinweisen, dass die Anlage im Untergeschoss tatsächlich die kleinste Version von Sonos ist, die in der Regel einen moderaten und raumfreundlichen Klang liefert. Außerdem ist der Lautsprecher normalerweise bei lediglich 7% seiner maximalen Lautstärke eingestellt. Viele Grüße Madita vom Old Kings Hostel

Bienvenue dans l'hôtel du 21eme siècle
Bienvenue dans l'hôtel du 21eme siècle. Tout est automatisé, il n'y a personne à l'accueil et quand il y a un problème, personne ne répond. Et mon problème est que je n'ai pas reçu l'e-mail contenant les instructions pour le check-in. Par conséquent je n'avais pas le code pour rentrer dans l'hotel et ensuite pour rentrer dans ma chambre. Heureusement un client m'a fait rentrer et j'ai pu passer contacter quelqu'un. Dans l'hotel il y a un numéro WhatsApp mais personne ne m'a répondu. J'ai essayé d'appeler ce même numéro, personne au bout du fil... Il a fallu que je passe par le tchat de hotels.com pour qu'on puisse régler le problème. Il était 18h30, j'imagine même pas les complications si j'étais arrivé plus tard

Die Lage in der Stadt ist für Fussgänger sehr gut, aber es gibt für Auto- fahrer nur Parkplätze einige hundert Meter entfernt - ca. 8 Minuten zu laufen. Empfang und Betreuung durch den Hausherren waren sehr an- genehm. Unser Zimmer ROYAL EXPEDITION mit einem Hochbett ca. 1.50 breit und darunter einer Schlafcouch von ca. 150 Breite war für uns zwei Männer praktisch, aber drum herum war sehr wenig Platz z.B. für Kleidung oder Schreibsachen, Notebook und Medikamente . WiFi ist kostenlos angeboten, Frühstück auf Bestellung am Vorabend mit gutem Angebot am Morgen auf dem Tisch. Für eine einzige Nacht recht empfehlenswert, für einen längeren Aufenthalt wären andere Zim mer vieleicht mehr geeignet.

Invasão de privacidade pelo dono do hotel.
Cheguei às 9h e não abriram a porta para que eu deixasse a mala. Tive que pagar locker na estação. À noite voltei e fiz check in. Não aceitaram cartão de crédito, tive que pagar em dinheiro. Meu quarto tinha 8 meninas e às 22h o dono simplemente abriu a porta do quarto sem bater, olhou pra cada uma de nós e saiu. De manhã fui a última a tomar banho e estava sozinha no banheiro feminino, nua, quando o dono abriu a porta sem bater novamente e começou a arrumar os lixos. Eu fiz barulho atrás da cortina pra ele ver que tinha gente mas ele nem se importou. Me vesti correndo toda molhada e fui pro quarto e um empregado estava lá tirando os lençóis das camas. As meninas tinham ido embora, e ele gentilmente me deu licença para que eu pudesse terminar de me arrumar e quando saiu o dono brigou com ele e entrou no quarto com raiva, sem bater ou pedir licença. E terminou de fazer o serviço do empregado. Enquanto isso eu só de meia calça toda encolhida no canto e com medo de reclamar e ele fazer algo contra mim, esperei ele terminar e quando esse grosseiro saiu botei qualquer roupa, catei minha mala e desci pro banheiro mas estava interditado pra limpeza e não pude secar o cabelo. Estava 4°C e eu larguei a chave no check out e fui embora procurar abrigo em um café. Verdadeiro pesadelo!! Me senti invadida e assediada com a grosseria do dono desse lugar.

Hello Carina, we want to start by letting you know that when you have booked the room, you have seen that check in time starts at 4.00 PM.In the morning, there is staff at the hostel and we are sure that if you were at the hostel in the morning, you were able to store the luggage.Everybody has this possibility.You were in a mixed dormitory and not in a ladies dormitory, it was pure coincidence that there were only ladies.Our staff is allowed to go in the dormitories to check if everything is ok, to see which beds are still available, to take the trash out, where is your problem?You were in a 8 persons dormitory, why should everybody, everytime he goes inside knock at the door?IS A 8 BED MIXED DORMITORY!!In the morning you took a shower almost before the check out time expired(you knew that check out is until 10.00 am).Our staff went in the room to start cleaning,that is usual after check out time, you were still there.There was no problem for us and also you did not said nothing about it at that moment.It was almost 10.30 am when you wanted to use the ladies bathroom, to dry your hair.Nobody told you nothing that you are not allowed to use.So, after check out you were still in the lounge playing with your phone, so it is not true that you went outside with your wet hair.Nobody did not told you anything, even you did not respect the house rules about check out time.So, what you are telling is not true.It is not possible that at 10 PM somebody from the staff checked the ladies toilets and showers, because we are at the hostel only until 8.00 PM.And even if we check the toilets and the showers we knock at the door, if there is no answer, than we go inside.We check toilets and showers because we want always to have them clean.Our staff and guests are very nice people and that is why it is a very big surprise for us by seeing this review.
