0What a great location as far as proximity to downtown Munich and tourist attractions! Don't bother with taking a cab from the airport to the hotel. Save your dough for fun related activities and take the S8 subway line to the Rosenheimer Platz stop that is situated directly beneath the hotel. Finding the exit that leads directly to the hotel proved to be a challenge (and not fun hauling your luggage around with you trying to find it) but you?ll figure it out eventually. It's worth the effort. Relating to the hotel itself, we enjoyed the spacious room, effective AC, flat screen TV with radio option, ice maker located in the hallway along with a self serve shoe shine machine that was pretty slick! We didn't enjoy the cushy, way too soft pillows, yucky stains on the carpet and soiled bed skirt but the bed sheets and pillow cases themselves were very clean. On a scale of 1 through 10 with 10 being the highest we'd rate the overall cleanliness of the establishment as a 9. The Hotel Staff was very friendly, helpful, readily spoke English and laughed along with us in relation to our poor command of the German language. They appreciated our efforts though! Concierge Nate was especially helpful in relation to tourist spot recommendations that were cost effective and providing directions to various Munich hot spots. He assisted us in making travel arrangements to our next stop in Prague which was very cool and much appreciated! There is great shopping, eating and internet cafe access in the neighborhood a few blocks away, check it out! Take a left as you exit the front entrance of the hotel rather then head downtown (to the right), you won't be sorry! Overall assessment - stay here!
