Pros:
- very friendly and helpful staff
- funky design and very functional with tv, couch area, balcony and table, oven and microwave in the kitchen
- LOVED the sustainability credentials - entire building in Munich ran on renewable energy AND provided EV charging stations for a fully green experience, had energy efficient lighting, water conservation and recycling. As a traveller that prioritises sustainability and a sustainability consultant I was very impressed.
- this is so minor but has bothered me in the past: the little light on the oven has kept me awake in other hotels before and the team had a little sticker put over it which I thought was super thoughtful and shows they genuinely care about a good sleep experience. But more on that below.
Cons:
- (as was common across Germany) the bed and pillows were hard, uncomfortable and unsupportive. Germany - get your act together on bedding! I’d recommend SL invest in some premium pillows and mattress toppers with memory foam or bamboo as cheap alternatives to upgrading the whole bed. Quality bedding is so essential for travellers - especially ones working remotely!
- location: I didn’t love the location. It was helpful to be 10-15 mins walk to the central station for day trips but the area doesn’t have much going for it. Not particularly aesthetically appealing / historic and a bit dingey. That said if the bedding was upgraded I would stay here again.
