My stay at the hotel was a mixed experience. The rooms were tiny, making it hard to move around, but they were surprisingly clean and even had a bathtub, which was a nice touch for a single room. The availability of tea and coffee was a convenient perk. The service was top-notch with very friendly and guest-oriented staff, although I did encounter an issue with an overly strict colleague during a previous stay. The location was a bit inconvenient, not being close to public transportation, but it was near the stunning Englischer Garten in Munich. The dining experience was simple yet excellent, with nice views and a relaxed atmosphere. Overall, the hotel offered a fair value for the price paid.

The hotel is conveniently located in a good area of Munich, a perfect spot to reach the Ubahn for easy access to the city center. The rooms, though needing a bit of renovation, were ultimately comfortable. The service was friendly and guest-oriented, ensuring we had a pleasant stay. However, the location may seem distant from the train station at first glance, but it's a short walk to the main bus depot and Ubahn, making it quite accessible.

My stay at the hotel was not as pleasant as I had hoped. The rooms looked nice initially but had an old smell, the towels were not great, and the bedding was inadequate. The mildew smell in the air and the poor bathroom conditions made my experience quite disappointing. To make matters worse, there was no concierge or bell person to assist with baggage, and even the breakfast was just okay.

The hotel had a nice view of the city from the window and the rooms were well-enriched with fine furniture, providing comfort. Despite being a bit old-fashioned and dark, the rooms were not big enough for the price and lacked daily replenishment of water. Unfortunately, towels and toiletries were not up to cleanliness standards as we spotted cockroaches crawling on the floor.

The service was adequate for my purpose. However, there was an unfortunate incident regarding a colleague's bad attitude during a previous stay, even though he was not present this time. We were unexpectedly asked to pay EUR 250.00 as 'cleaning fees' for smoking in the room, and were disturbed with an early morning request to leave before the initially agreed time.
Location

The hotel is located in a residential area far from the city center and major sightseeing spots, making it inconvenient for exploration on foot. However, it worked well for us driving to the airport with free parking options nearby. The proximity to the 'Englischer Garten' offers a beautiful natural area within Munich.

The hotel offers a cozy room with a nice selection of tea and coffee, but could use some more space for the price. The service was a mix of audible vacuuming early in the morning and a complimentary bottle of mineral water. The location may be challenging without a car, but it's ideal for a straightforward visit to the English Garden. The dining experience surrounded by greenery was exceptional. Additional details include proximity to public transport and a comfortable space for a good breakfast.
