The apartment has all modern amenities (including a small elevator) but an old world style that we appreciated. The location, one block to the U bahn, and 1 km from Marienplatz and the Viktualienmarkt beer garden is very convenient. There are some nice restaurants of many different cuisines within less than 1 km. We tried a couple that Luise recommended and enjoyed them. This is a great base from which to travel to other parts of Bavaria also. I would definitely recommend Luise's apartment.
