munich apartment for a week???

have you rented an apartment in munich that you recommend? we found one for 666e, including final cleaning. we ride bikes and munich has 659k of bike trails which we hope to ride as we see part of the city.
seems high to us, but maybe it's OK. can you offer some suggestions?

Have you looked at your other thread? There are several comments. There is no way to tell if this is high or not w/o knowing the size/quality of the flat, its location, if there is a lift, what month, etc . . . . .

It is sort of asking if $25,000 is too much for a car -- totally depends . . . . .

You might have wrong expectations here. Except for the axis north-south along the Isar, biking in the city is NOT a thing you would recommend to anybody. Slow, costantly having to cross havy traffic and first of all LOTS of cars parked on the trails. Locals (like me ) use the S-Bahn train and take their bike with them to go biking in the "Umland". Transporting a bike on the train will cost you 2 strips from the strip ticket to go anywhere. Renting an apartment downtown and biking are two things that don't go together well. So maybe this even helps in finding a less expensive flat

willis, did you check out your other inquiry? Some are asking for feedback.

willis: "to the top" doesn't help us much. Give us some of the deatils and we can tell you if that flat is reasonably priced or not.

Also - What is your budget for accomodations??

There's a studio/flat in the city center listed on craigslist for €450 you could ask about:

see my post on your other thread.

IMHO, it does seem a bit strange to focus on the high cost of this one flat, when VRBO lists others that are cheaper.
