Maximilian Munich - Munich, Germany 

Good location but pricey Munich apartment.

I looked for quite a while trying to find a serviced apartment in Munich for our two adults and two children family. Found it difficult to find anything near the centre or any apartment full stop. It's not a common concept in Munich. I came across Maximilian Munich. We paid 330 euros for a two bedroom apartment. The pros and cons are as follows: Pros HIgh standard, expensive fit out. Apartments are recently refurbished and pretty much as in the website photos. Friendly and efficient reception. Great location within 8 minute walk to the Marienplatz in the centre. Upmarket neighbourhood with cafes nearby. Cons Kitchenette was tight and not particularly well equipped, eg no fry pan or dishwasher. Airconditioning not working that well, it was still quite warm even with it on at night. Don't like having to pay 15 euros for 24hours of internet usage at the rate we paid. I think it should be included for that rate. No washer/dryer in apartment, they were downstairs and an additional 1.50 euros per usage. All in all it was of a high standard but not particularly good value, especially having to pay for internet access on top of the rate paid. I noticed there was another apartment hotel round the corner called Stollberg Plaza which doesn't come up on TA but looks to be cheaper and offering quite roomy apartments.

Be careful, they can charge your card with extra night in addition to actual

Everything was fine, untill I found out that instead of 2 nights they charged my card with 3 nights!!!! Complained, wrote messages, but no replies so far. So I paid extra EUR 145 for nothing.

Nice place, great location

Booked the Maximilian Munich 9 months in advance and contacted them 2 weeks before our arrival to confirm. Rented the family apartment only to find out upon arrival that it had been split into 2 units instead of one large one. Believe they should have told me that 2 weeks before (too late to change so would have left the reservation in tact) just to not surprise me when we checked in. Biggest problem was when asked about breakfast was told it wasn't included. Asked the price and was told if you have the buffet it's 15E, otherwise charged for cereal, toast, etc. accordingly. After 4 of us had 3 pieces of toast, 4 bowls of cereal and coffee we were told if you sat down you were charged the buffet price. Argued, but to no avail. Most expensive and least pleasing meal on our 2 week trip.
