This hotel is located in a quiet residential neighborhood outside of the central Munich area. Advantages: The quietness and the nice neighborhood. The quietness does come at a price, however, since it is out of the central area. In fact, if you are riding the metro, the Furstenried West station serving the hotel is at the very end of the U3 line. Upon exiting the station, it is about a two short blocks walk to the hotel. The hotel appears to be owner-operated and shows much pride of ownership. I bought a breakfast one day and it was excellent. The hotel is very clean and well maintained. Shopping: Not much around. There is a convenience store near the metro station, along with an excellent bakery nearby. Other stores a few blocks away. Note that the hotel stairs indoors are excellent and broad; however, I did not see an elevator in the hotel. I would definitely stay there again.
