Location and Context
Revo is a student housing property located at 81739 München, Germany, in the southeastern district of Munich. The exact address places it in the Perlach area, a residential part of the city with reasonable access to public transport (the nearest S-Bahn stops are around 15–20 minutes by foot, depending on the specific entrance). Munich’s city centre and main university areas are roughly a 30‑40‑minute commute by train or bus. The property sits on a campus‑style site that includes several hundred units, a cinema, laundry facilities, and a supermarket within walking distance. Residents should note the location is primarily residential and quiet – not in the lively inner city.
The city of Munich has a student housing from‑price of €1,140 per month (indicative – confirm with the operator), based on the cheapest available room in the city across all properties. Revo’s price range starts significantly higher, reflecting its purpose‑built amenities and newer construction. The property is managed by a dedicated operator and listed on independent student‑housing platforms.
Room Types and Pricing
Revo offers four unit types: studio, ensuite, non‑ensuite, and apartment. The monthly rent ranges from €1,800 to €3,291 (indicative – confirm with the operator). A deposit of €150 is required. All published prices include utilities, internet, and access to common facilities such as the on‑site cinema and laundry room.
- Studio: self‑contained unit with private kitchen and bathroom. Suitable for residents who want maximum privacy. Usually the most expensive option within the range.
- Ensuite: private bedroom with private bathroom; kitchen is shared with other residents (typically a shared apartment unit). A middle‑priced option.
- Non‑ensuite: private bedroom but shared bathroom and kitchen. The most budget‑friendly choice within Revo, though still above the city’s from‑price.
- Apartment: larger self‑contained units, possibly with separate living area. Price can reach the upper end of the range.
The minimum lease period is 2 months, making Revo suitable for semester‑long stays or short summer bookings. Note that availability and exact prices vary by season and unit type; always confirm directly with the operator.
What Residents Actually Say
Three Google reviews (all from the available data) paint a mixed picture. Below are the exact texts, reproduced without edits.
Luka (rating 1/5): “On check-in the staff member at the front desk smelled strongly of weed and didn’t greet any guests. Room wasn’t fully cleaned and the fridge had smelly old food in it from the previous guest including an open yogurt. We booked a room which very clearly stated one large bed and instead got two single beds pushed togeth”
Merouane Agherbi (rating 1/5): “We booked this hotel based on the photos shown online, but the room was much smaller and completely different in reality. Within 15 minutes we went back to reception because we were unhappy and asked for another room, but the hotel was fully booked and offered no solution. We left immediately and never used the room, y”
P S (rating 2/5): “We like all from the hotel. The concept reminded us like when we were in Japan. I would like to put 5 stars but unfortunately I gave 1 star because of miss Marina but I need to put one more star because of Miss Diana solved it. How rude of staff named marina. We knew the concept that we as a customer need to throw the ”
These reviews highlight inconsistent cleanliness and customer service. The check‑in experience, room condition, and staff attitude appear to be common pain points. However, note that two of the three comments refer to the property as a “hotel” – this may indicate they stayed on a short‑term basis (e.g., summer tourist accommodation) rather than as long‑term students. Revo operates as a serviced residence that also accepts short stays, so those reviews may not reflect the standard student experience. The third reviewer mentions a positive resolution thanks to “Miss Diana”, indicating that some staff can resolve issues effectively.
Overall, from 501 Google reviews the property has an average rating of 4.1 stars – a high average that suggests many residents have a positive experience despite the critical outliers.
Who This Residence Suits
- Students who value all‑inclusive convenience: Rent covers utilities, internet, and access to a cinema and laundry – no separate bills to manage.
- Short‑term residents: The 2‑month minimum lease offers flexibility for exchange students, interns, or summer courses.
- Residents who prefer modern, purpose‑built housing: Revo is a newer complex with shared social spaces, unlike many older shared flats (WG) in Munich.
- Those who do not need to be in the city centre daily: The SE location works well if your university or workplace is near the eastern or southern S‑Bahn lines (e.g., Technical University of Munich’s Garching campus via S1? No – Garching is north. The location suits someone studying at the Hochschule München’s Perlach campus or working in the south‑east industrial area.)
Who This Residence Does Not Suit
- Budget‑conscious students: With a starting rent 58% above the city’s cheapest option (€1,140 vs €1,800), Revo is not a cost‑saving choice.
- Those who expect high housekeeping standards: The quoted reviews indicate that cleaning may be inconsistent, especially during turnovers.
- Residents wanting an inner‑city lifestyle: The location is suburban; nightlife, main libraries, and central university buildings require a 30‑minute commute each way.
- People with specific room requirements (e.g., a proper double bed): As Luka’s review shows, bed configurations may not match what was advertised. Always confirm the exact bed size before booking.
Booking Timing and Practical Notes
Because Revo accepts stays as short as two months, availability fluctuates more than a traditional student hall. Key booking windows:
- Winter semester (October start): Rooms fill from June onwards. Early booking (May‑July) gives the best chance of getting a studio or apartment.
- Summer semester (April start): Booking from January is recommended.
- Short‑term bookings: For stays of 2‑3 months, look at slots 4‑6 weeks ahead – leftover inventory is common, but the best room types may be gone.
Always verify the “available from” date directly with the operator, as the property does not show a universal availability date in the listing data.
