Michael's place was perfect for my travels- he was super sweet and helpful in making me feel at home and also about local areas to visit and check out. There are few hosts that have been as kind and considerate to me as Michael was!
The room was the perfect size for me as a solo traveler, a comfortable bed and enough room to sit down and work at the desk and store my clothes and belongings in the drawers and shelves. The bathroom was always so clean despite being a shared bathroom, nobody was ever hogging it (everyone was so respectful of each other), the kitchen was so well stocked and Michael was quick to help me make coffee! The dining area is spacious and nice, the other people staying all welcomed me to eat with them (no pressure or anything it was just so nice!). The room did had a key which felt secure, however the other people staying there were all so lovely and all helped me feel at home. It made me want to stay even longer and Michael and the others had such wonderful hospitality that I am going to make it a point to return to this beautiful, quiet part of Munich and stay here again.
The city center is a quick, 8-10ish minute walk to the train station with only two platforms and then a 20ish minute train ride on the S8 line. It was incredibly accessible without a car! And Munich is a city with plenty of space for pedestrians and bicyclists, with designated lanes for each. Just be sure you know which lane is for pedestrians and cyclists as you do not want to be walking in a cycling lane- be mindful and respectful and stay out of the way of bicycles.
Overall, this was one of my all-time favorite stays while solo travelling with unforgettable memories sharing food and laughing with the other tenants who came from all over the world, and of course Michael as well who grew up in the beautiful, lovely home and how he sat down with me and helped me navigate the city and find some yummy sweets shops!
