I recently traveled to Munich with my 17-year-old daughter and we spent 4 nights in this apartment. The check-in arrangements were unique and I will explain them here because based only on the owner's instructions they were a little confusing. If you read through mine and the other reviews I think it's helpful. The apartment is on a busy street and there is an alley around the corner; in that alley the owner has placed a lock box in which he leaves the key. He will provide a code for you to unlock the box and retrieve the key. Then you walk back out into the street to find the building entrance; you'll use the key to go through 2 doors to gain access to the building (one is on the street, the next is then on the right), then go to the 2nd floor (if you're American, it's actually the third floor--but there's an elevator so it's really easy). The apartment has his name on a sign outside, that's how we found it. If you want a central location then I can't imagine that you'll find anything better than this. The building is on a busy street with shops and restaurants and is right between 2 S-Bahn stations so very easy to get to. We took the S-Bahn from the main train station and then walked maybe 2 blocks--very easy for 2 women with a substantial amount of luggage. We were able to walk to many of the sights we wanted to see--the HofBrauHaus, Marienplatz, Viktualienmarkt, new town hall were all really easy to get to. Some things to be aware of: It is a busy, noisy street and was very loud at night. Because we were there in July we had to leave the windows open at night to cool the apartment down (German buildings do not typically have A/C but there was a fan), so if you're light sleeper this might not work. But if you're visiting for Oktoberfest then this wouldn't be an issue. This is also apparently a part-time residence for the owner so there were personal items throughout and we weren't always comfortable moving them out of the way. I had asked ahead of time about laundry facilities because this was the leg of our trip where we really needed to wash clothes; the owner had told us about a Wash + Coffee which was very close by, but he didn't let us know about their limited hours; they are closed on Thursdays and not open early/late other days, so I ended up washing everything by hand one item at a time (the kitchen and bathroom sinks are tiny). Drying things was then a challenge because there was nowhere to hang things up; we laid them on towels to protect the floors, but there were no extra towels so this too was a little difficult. These are all not a big deal, but it would have been helpful to know ahead of time and...
