Lisa and Ruben’s place is perfect for a weekend stay in Munich! We came for the first weekend of Oktoberfest and loved the location. Central to everything—walkable to several things—and easy access to the Metro. Probably 10-15 mins to Oktoberfest on the busier weekends.
PROS - communication/helpful tips, cleanliness, and Lisa & Ruben themselves :)
...
- Check-in was super easy as both Lisa and Ruben were quick to respond via WhatsApp. They were always available via WhatsApp if we had any questions. Ruben was also very helpful with making sure we got the correct train passes to get around. He went above and beyond!
-The space is welcoming and clean. Even though you share a bathroom, it was never a problem!
- Lisa and Ruben are such a delight. They are kind and happy to share their space. They even left a bottle of wine for us on arrival! Such a thoughtful touch :) They also let us keep our bags there since we weren’t leaving until the evening! They definitely didn’t have to do that, and we appreciated it so much.
CONS - unable to use the kitchen, the bed is a futon (relatively comfortable but something to consider), and pretty pricey for a shared space—it was one of the better options we could find with such a busy weekend!
...
- Although they do mark out the option of using the kitchen, I feel I should mention it here since I didn’t click on the ”amenities” portion of the listing! Usually with a shared space, I always assume we have access to the kitchen, but neither that or the laundry is available. I can understand why as it is a cozy apartment, but if you’re wanting to make some breakfast to save money, it’s something to consider.
- As I mentioned, the futon is honestly not too bad. The bar in the middle is the only uncomfortable part.
- But because of this and the lack of access to the kitchen/laundry, I didn’t feel the value was as good!
All in all, the pros outweighed the cons. I would recommend people stay here for a weekend visit! Dankeschön Lisa and Ruben!
