First time visit to Munich to work at EPO

I had a most enjoyable stay at this nicely furnished studio apartment. It is a perfect size for 1 person, with the bedding, kitchen and bathroom more than meeting my needs. The Internet connection worked flawlessly. Although the weather during Germany's coldest and wettest May in decades only allowed me to glimpse the Alps a couple of times from the balcony, the views of the city and cathedrals were wonderful.

Flo is quite accommodating and was wonderful with all my questions regarding the studio and the area. The neighborhood is quiet with plenty of restaurants, groceries and shopping nearby. It also is an easy walk to the European Patent Office (EPO) where I was working for 3 weeks, and also an easy walk to the subways to explore all of Munich. The several parks nearby provided great venues for jogs, with close by beer gardens and breweries allowing for memorable "cool down" sessions.

I highly recommend this studio, especially for those staying more than a few days in Munich who seek an immersion experience as opposed to a non-descript hotel stay.
