The location is perfect. Located in the Universität area, it is in walking distance to the Englischer Garten and Marienplatz. And if you don't feel like walking, the U-Bahn station is very close too, which was perfect for me as I chose this location for easy travel to the central train station, Allianz Arena, and to the city center. Gaby's home is in a very beautiful part of Munich, in the Maxvorstadt, which has a plethora of shops, grocery stores, cafes & restaurants on Türkenstraße and the surrounding areas. There are also a few art museums in the area that are worth checking out.
Communication with the host was a breeze. Gaby was very accommodating with me for checking-in in the late evening. Furthermore, she provided a comprehensive guide for locating her home that was easy enough to follow, and I had no issues finding her home from the central train station.
Gaby exceeded my expectations for the quality of hospitality she provided me. Since I arrived late, I had not yet eaten dinner, and she was kind enough offer me food & drinks, and even invited me to hang out at the informal dinner party that they were having. Gaby, Holm, and her friends were so kind!
The bedroom was located close to the entrance door and was comfortable enough for my friend and I. It was clean and nicely decorated. It appeared to be two double beds pushed together, and was quite firm, which didn't bother us at all as I love a firm bed. The bedroom window overlooks a beautiful courtyard area and offers a pleasant view. There is also a TV and a wardrobe in the room.
The bathroom was across from the bedroom. It was very well maintained and the shower was excellent.
My only complaint is that it's not the quietest place due to the location of the bedroom to the entrance, so I had trouble sleeping, but I am a very light sleeper. My friend had no problem sleeping at all.
Overall, Gaby's home was very clean and beautiful to me. They had all sorts of trinkets and decorations in the home showing that they were world travelers. Gaby & Holm were very friendly, and they definitely deserve the superhost status.
