Quaint winter escape
The apartment was conveniently located for our visiting purposes. The apartment was surprisingly large and had all needed appliances except for a washer and dryer. The apartment was extremely clean and I would stay here again in a heartbeat. As far as checking in, if my son did not live in the area to retrieve the key before 7pm, I don't know how I would have gotten the key with the long trip I had had for the day. A key lockbox would be convenient to use only if you have someone unable to be in person from 3-7p during those check in times. Thank you so much for a great stay!

Wonderful Stay!
My family of four spent several wonderful nights exploring Garmisch and Munich using Phillipe's apartment as our home base. The apartment is spacious, fully equipped and most importantly sparkling clean. Phillipe was a great host, easy to communicate with and quick to respond. The location was perfect for easy access to sights as there is a bus stop at the entry way. Grocery stores are literally next door so it is easy to pop over for any food. Plus it is very quiet and we all slept well, an important part for any successful vacation with kids. We would definitely recommend booking this apartment!

Loved our time here!
Our family (two adults and two young children) spent 4 weeks in this apartment, and we thoroughly enjoyed it. It is located on the road between Garmisch and Grainau - fortunately, the rental includes a Grainau Card, which covers bus transportation through Grainau and to the Eibsee, as well as into the town of Garmisch. We had no trouble with transportation. Another incredible convenience is the location of two grocery stores (with bakery) 3 minutes from the apartment. Perfect for early morning baked goods! The apartment itself was clean and well furnished, the kitchen includes most anything you could want, and the beds are comfortable. WIFI was reliable and we had access to a washing machine in the basement. Philippe, our host, went out of his way to be helpful and even offered transportation to and from the train station. Overall, A+ and we hope to be back!

Perfect in every way
The location couldn’t be better. Next to an Aldi grocery store and the bus into Garmisch is right out the front door (bus passes are included in your stay & it is only a 10 minute ride max). If you are American the military base is about a 3 minute drive to use the commissary and small exchange but the best place to change money. Amenities were likewise perfect. Two single beds in the living room and a separate bedroom. The kitchen had everything you could ask for: pots and pans and cooking utensils, bottle opener, wine opener, toaster, microwave, stove top and oven, French press and other coffee makers, electric hot water kettle, and good wifi. Also, this is one of the cleanest places you can imagine. The living rooms, kitchen and bathroom were all fresh and clean. Lastly, our host was so friendly and hospitable and helpful. He responded immediately to our questions, met us the day we arrived and the morning we left. A perfect host. There is no better place to stay when you are vacationing in the Garmisch area!

It was a very nice fully equipped one bedroom apartment.
The apartment was conveniently located just outside of Garmisch on the main road to Grainau near grocery stores and a restaurant. Philippe who managed the property was very helpful and a pleasure to deal with. Without a doubt, this was the best bargain we found during our very enjoyable stay in Bavaria. The surrounding area was packed with interesting castles, churches, monasteries, the highest point in Germany, mountains, lakes and not far from Innsbruck, Austria which had plenty of its own attractions including the castle Schloss Ambras with an amazing amount of paintings and art dating to the 1600's or older. German beer is great!

Great place to stay.
We stayed for two nights. The place was very clean, the beds were comfortable and plenty of room for all three of us. The location is perfect for temporary vacationers. There is plenty of things to do in the area and all the castles are within a hours drive. Phillip was very easy to work with even though we came later in the evening. He was a very gracious host. Thank you for adding to a great vacation for my family.

Great Location and an Excellent price!
We stayed here with our two small children and Philippe was very accommodating. He brought in a high chair and a baby bed. He also was accommodating with our very late arrival time. The location of the apartment is excellent, very close to Garmisch town center and all the ski lifts, there is also an Aldi and Edeka across from the apartment and a restuarant as well. We had a wonderful stay and would stay at this apartment again if we go back!
