We got caught in Salzburg without reservations and the moderately-priced hotels were all booked. This type of lodging is not our typical style so I don't want to be unfair in this review. The property was very basic. It is in a residential neighborhood with a parking lot that was too small. Local restaurants and grocery markets are a bit of a walk and close early in the evenings. The triple room was way too small for the amount of furniture - leaving no floor space. Bed linens provided were appropriate but the towels were essentially rags. There is a shortage of hair dryers. The walk into the old city was pleasant and felt safe (we were there in 20 minutes).
This hostel is used as college dorm rooms when Salzburg university is in session. So if you expect the same type of room you had in college, you will be pleased.
Quite a high price for a dormitory room but probably one of the cheapest options in Salzburg. You need to pay in cash on site but hostel did not release hold of authorization made during booking on my credit card. I tried to contact them but no reply. So I will have to wait a month for hold to be automatically dropped.
relatively a clean hostel. But in a quite remote neighbourhood. Since Salzburg is a small city it doesn't take long to get to city center though. recommended!

Quite remote but close to Stiegls brewery which was a nice experience. Room was basic but clean, no double bed available. Staff was friendly. Wi-Fi was terrible though so hard to get connection.
Had a great experience with Sonia and Ula, the best employees at Muffin. Salzburg was a great stop on our trip thanks to them!

Not bad for the price
This hostel has the basics and is a short walk in to town. Pretty good lodging for the price. In addition, they have plenty of parking. One downfall is that they only accept cash. Your hotels.com booking only reserves the room.
Das Einchecken ins Hostel dauert jedes Mal viel zu lange, da man lange warten muss. Eine Person an der Reception ist einfach zu wenig, bei einem grossen Andrang. Ansonsten ist das Hostel top.

It was ... ok ...
The room was very basic, but clean and the hostel is within walking distance from the beautiful old center of Salzburg (approx. 20 minutes). In the immediate area of the hostel however, there is not much to do or visit. Unfortunately, as it turned out, the room we had booked (with a queen size bed) didn't exist (the Muffin hostel only has rooms with single beds), so that was disappointing for a married couple like us. Also (and I realize that Salzburg is thé most expensive city in Austria), ultimately, we felt the room was overpriced for what it offered. Still, for a group of friends, this hostel could be a good enough option.
Ubicado a unos 25 mins a pie del centro. Atención de las chicas de recepción correcta. Ahora bien, las toallas hay que pedirlas en recepción, y en nuestro caso nos hemos tenido que confirmar con una toalla de mano para dos noches, ya que nos les quedaban de ducha... El secador hay que pedirlo también en recepción. En nuestro caso, hemos desistido tras cinco intentos en diferentes ocasiones, imagino que tienen uno o dos para todos los huéspedes... Baño minúsculo tipo caravana y habitaciones con camas individuales. Precio bastante exagerado para lo que realmente ofrecen...
