Look elsewhere.
I'd not call it a hotel. It's an old five story building with upper floor rooms being given as hotel rooms. The area was pitch dark at night -- I had to use cell phone flash light to find my way. The elevator was stuck on the fifth floor one night; had to climb the five floors. The room was clean, but not comfortable. Very springy low quality mattress. The breakfast was not worth waking up for. Skip it if you want any degree of comfort during your stay.

Dear ?, Thank you for taking the time to send in feedback, although, unfortunately, anonymously, so I cannot address you directly. Since the hotel floors have automatic lights, I assume you are talking about the 'pitch dark' staircase outsice. As most houses, this one is also fitted with light switches next to each door on each floor, they are even illuminated red at night, and when you press them the light comes on. I agree it's a nuisance when people leave the lift door open, so the next person has to use the stairs (I hope you closed the door to save others from this trouble). I do of course not know what your expectations are when you book a room with continental breakfast, I do know however that my buffet provides much more than I would have to for 'continental', including many selfmade jams and my own baked bread, many different cheeses and cold cuts, five cereals, fruit and much more. The house is indeed an 'Altbau', many people love it for its charme (same goes for the elevator, it's actually quite unique) and it is not unusual here to have a 'Pension' on the top floors of a normal building. If you had talked to me, I could have explained much of all this to you in person, perhaps we could have resolved some misunderstandings or I could have done anything else to make your stay more worthwile for you. Maybe you take this chance next time! Happy new year nonetheless!

We enjoyed the sense of independence. We had keys which allowed us into the property and our floor. A very friendly reception when we arrived. Great breakfast.

Grand old traditional building in Munich centre
We chose this Pension for the happy combination of an elegant central location and affordability. The historic building is a short walk from the Universitat metro stop. It has a lift, though a few stairs at the entrance. Our room (no 36) had a bathroom with shower, high ceiling and quiet rear outlook with window. There is no kettle, fridge or microwave, but there was a bottle of water each in the room and a Lidle for grocery supplies a couple blocks down Leopold Strasse. Breakfast is a selection of cold items, tea & coffee, in a breakfast room. You get a key to the property which allows you to return at night. They were kind to let us stay longer than our 10am checkout while waiting for friends to meet us. We would definitely stay again.

Property manger did a great job communicating with us. Breakfast was delicious and offered coffee, milk, water and tea. She even was kind enough to provide us with a universal plug for our American cellphones. Property was so close to everything, just a walk or train ride away. I honestly wish I had paid for a room with its own restroom. For sure next time I will invest into a room more than the economy one. I would recommend this hotel to anyone.

The hotel had plenty of charm and was closely located to the metro. Two stops from the Marineplaz (walking distance). The area is very close to the English Garden with easy access to other main attractions in Munich. Price is very affordable for night and the breakfast and WIFI included are a great plus. Tanja as the owner does everything to make your stay comfortable and welcomes everyone/everyday with a big smile. Book the hotel, you won't regret it

Very old fashioned, shower wouldn’t really come warm. Lots of spooky dolls around and no hot breakfast. Pillows not worth it either as so thin!!

Thank you for taking the time so send in feedback. I would have happily provided you with a 2nd or bigger pillow, had I known that this one is too flat for you, next time please just ask for one. There is only extended continental breakfast, but no hot/English breakfast, that might not be too clear on the booking site. I am not sure what to say about the dolls, as there are no dolls in any of my rooms, so perhaps this is a misunderstanding/autocorrect?!

Logement de qualité, sur un axe principal à 2 stations de métro du Centre historique, pour ceux qui ne recherchent pas un logement moderne. Vieux ascenseur, pas de climatisation, déjeuner correct. Situation relativement calme, donnant sur une rue sans gros trafic, possibilité de parquer dans la rue devant l'Hôtel. Le point fort de ce logement est la disponibilité et la sympathie de la gérante très serviable.

Es war in Ordnung, nur: der Frühstücksraum war kleiner als unser Zimmer. Die Gäste saßen etwas gedrängt, das Buffet war a. d. Rand "gezwängt". Es gab drei Toiletten auf unserem Flur, so war immer eine frei. Bei besonders gefallen fällt uns nichts ein.

Liebe Nadine, vielen Dank, dass Sie sich die Zeit für eine Bewertung genommen haben. Es hätte noch einen zweiten Frühstücksraum gegeben, ich wusste leider nicht, dass es Ihnen zu eng war. Wie Sie treffend festgestellt haben, habe ich nicht unbeschränkt Platz und versuche aber, eine so vielfältige Auswahl wie möglich bereit zu halten, daher muss ich da eben ein bisschen enger zusammen stellen. Als Gastgeber hätte mich natürlich interessiert ob Sie meine Auswahl an selbstgemachten Fruchtaufstrichen interessant fanden, ob Ihnen das selbstgebackene Brot geschmeckt hat oder ob Sie vielleicht Nicht-Brot-Esser sind und Sie sich deshalb über die vielen Müslis, Obst und Joghurts gefreut haben. Geruhsame Feiertage auf jeden Fall für Sie und eine gute Zeit, viele Grüße aus München, Tanja Michel

Überteuert
Das Frühstück war super und der Service auch! Aber das Zimmer für 140 Euro war total überteuert. Es hat ein Stil der 90-er Jahre. Die Heizung war so laut (obwohl ich sie in der Nacht ausgeschaltet habe) dass ich deswegen dreimal aufgewacht bin. Das Fenster nach außen liess sich für Frischluft leider nicht öffnen. Das WC war OK, da viel nur der Drücker ins Clo.

Lieber Michael, vielen Dank für Ihre Rückmeldung. Ich hätte Ihnen gerne geholfen, das Fenster zu öffnen. Das mit der Heizung hört sich wirklich sehr ärgerlich an! Im Altbau lebt und atmet halt alles ein bisschen, aber so laut sollte das wirklich nicht sein. Das wird auf jeden Fall nochmal überprüft, danke für den Hinweis. Viele Grüße, Tanja Michel

Le séjour a été très positif. L'endroit est très proche de l'endroit de notre conférence. Grand chambre, petit déjeuner très soigné. La pension est rès proche du métro. C'était idéal.

Es handelt sich hier um eine Pension in einem älteren Haus. Ausstattung liebevoll, das Personal sehr freundlich. Zum Frühstück ist alles da, was das Herz begehrt. Zur Wies'n sogar Weißwürste. Von der Pension aus ist der Marienplatz, die Isar, der Englische Garten fußläufig zu erreichen - sehr praktisch: die U-Bahn-Station (5 Min.). Wir werden wiederkommen.

Eine einfache unterkunft mit bad/wc am gang (hatten eigenen topf für die nacht dabei), leider völlig überteuert (ein tag später begann das oktoberfest) Sehr unfreundliches Personal beim Frühstück, war sehr unwillig, als ich um Zitrone bat.

Response from Tanja Michel on Oct 3, 2019
Liebe Susanne, vielen Dank für Ihre Bewertung. Es tut mir wirklich leid, dass ich keine Zitrone vorrätig hatte und unwillig war ich nicht wegen der Bitte, sondern wegen des Versuches, mich beiseite zu drängen und in die nicht öffentlichen Bereiche des Hotels einzudringen (Küche/Büro). Es freut mich natürlich, dass Ihnen der Rest des Frühstücks offensichtlich aber dennoch zugesagt hat. Das mit der Etagendusche kann ich gut verstehen, die Standardzimmer hätten eine eigene Dusche und WC gehabt.

Sehr abenteuerliches Ambiente (Treppenhaus und Flure), aber genau das hat einen unglaublich coolen Charme. Zimmer sind renovierungsbedürftig. Der Rest ist für ein, zwei Nächte voll okay. Über Preise brauchen wir in München nicht zu reden. Das steht in keinerlei Verhältnis zu Unterkunft und Leistung

Thank you for taking the time to post a review. I am glad you liked the location and the house. I can totally understand that you prefer to have an ensuite bathroom. So for your next stay, I suggest to book a standard room instead of an eco room, as they have the bathrooms inside. Kind regards,
