YMCA: Lobby
For a basic hostel bed, the local YMCA, known here as CVJM-Jugendgästehaus, has 85 of them on offer in single, double and triple rooms.

The rooms, shared bathrooms facilities and common areas are clean and, from the looks of it, well-taken care of. Some rooms are set asides for families, with a crib/playpen set-up for infants and toddlers. On the downside, because it’s the Y and tied to Christian values, unmarried couples are not allowed to bunk together and must stay in the single-sex dorms.

Rates vary by room, with prices starting at 27.50€ for a bed in a triple room and increasing to 41€ for a large single. Breakfast and sheets are included, and discounts are available for stays longer than three nights. YMCA member gets a 10% break, but folks over 26 must pay 2.50€ to 3.50€ more plus the 19% value-added tax. Oktoberfest prices increase 5€, a modest hike compared to other places around town.
