Terrible terrible and filthy dirty. Plumbing didn’t work bedding and bathroom filthy. No house keeping services and the picture of robes in the listing is a fallacy. Two smal towels is more like it. I am rethinking my April trip to Munich as I don’t feel comfortable with your recommendations any longer.

Room was spacious and clean. Electricity didn’t work on one side of the room. There were 2 TVs in the room but you can only use one at a time. View was underwhelming. Staff was very friendly and nice.

The staff was great and provided exceptional customer service. The rooms could use additional detail in cleaning the walls, which had visible dirt, and under the bed, it seemed that they didn't vacuum underneath. Aside from that the it was a pleasant stay.
