About this place Wombat´s City Hostel Leipzig

It offers dorm beds and private rooms and has the chain's usual guest bar and shared kitchen. It is a mainstream hostel listed as gay-friendly, not an LGBTQ+ venue.

Nicely central location and perfectly fine for a short break.

Clean, lovely staff, great location, great energy inside, however what was missing for me were outlets next to each bed (so one next to top bunk bed as well) so that you can charge devices safely while sleeping, night lights next to each bed would also be great and one bathroom per 8 beds can also get a bit impractical. There were only 4 of us in the room though, so it wasn't a huge problem, an in general, for the very good price, can't complain. Very nice building and interior

Negative: The courtyard closes at 9 pm 😑. We were assigned an occupied bed twice during check-in. The Wi-Fi is unreliable. There's no shelf in the shower cubicle. No power outlet by the bed. Positive: Delicious breakfast. Clothes rack and towel rail in the bathroom. Leftover bread rolls from breakfast are available for the rest of the day. Friendly staff. Well-organized kitchen. Good location.

Beds need to be made up by the guests themselves, and towels are only available for rent at an extra cost. Luggage storage also costs extra, but lockers were provided. Unfortunately, no one told me where the communal kitchen was, so I only found it when I put my luggage away. The rooms with windows facing the street are extremely noisy and can be heard even with earplugs. The four-person female room had a private bathroom, and the fan made the heat somewhat bearable. I didn't have breakfast. There were plenty of electrical outlets in the room. All in all, it's adequate for the price. Bring your own towel.

★★☆☆☆

The appalling quality of my room ruined my stay. One bathroom and shower for an 8-bed dorm. There were no other showers available besides the one in our room (which was constantly occupied). The Wi-Fi connection barely worked. Every object and piece of furniture in the room made an unbearable racket. There were no outlets on the bed to charge anything, nor any space on the bed to store our belongings. The beds weren't very comfortable either. It's fortunate that the price was very affordable. But for a hostel of this standard, compared to the competition, this room is terribly bad. However, thank you for the excellent laundry facilities: €10 for a load of laundry and the dryer, and everything worked perfectly.
