Fantastic 5.0

The hotel was very clean, and the subway exit was right at the hotel, making it very convenient to get to attractions. The room rate included breakfast, and the breakfast had a wide variety of options. We stayed for 3 nights and were very satisfied with all the hotel's services, so if we come to Munich again, we will definitely choose to stay here again.
