Iris and her family are some of the loveliest AirBnB hosts I've ever met. My daughter called her when I arrived in Munich and we walked over and were met by Iris, who gave us a warm welcome and even cooed over my 10 week old granddaughter. The home looks like an art gallery, with beautiful paintings of all different styles covering the walls. My bedroom was huuuuuuge and had large windows that provided lots of light. I was a little nervous about sleeping on the pull out bed, but it was very, very spacious and cozy and provided me with lots of comfort while I slept.

Their home is located near the University, so there are lots of nice cafes and bars that line the street; it has a very urban and hip vibe as you walk the street with students on bicycles navigating their way at all hours. One evening I was walking by the music building and saw a student in one of the basement practice rooms playing the kettle drums. You can eat almost anything along their block, from Bosnian to Italian to sushi to ramen, and it's a short walk to a few biergartens, if that's your thing.

Irish and her family are lovely people, and always entertaining. Her husband offered me strong brewed coffee each morning, and we had interesting conversations about various topics of import, including the European soccer championships. Her children were home on break and they were polite and I enjoyed conversing with them. I can't say how much I enjoyed staying at their home.
