Booked for three days during a very busy period for Munich when the hotel daily rate was 5-6x the normal one and when it was the hottest days of the year when the temperature was around 35 Celsius. The AC in my room was not working. The hotel only managed to address the issue in the last evening so for 48h it was really difficult to stay in the room let alone sleep in it. Their technician arguably could not fix the issue before! They could not offer another room as they were full, no fan and the only thing the hotel offered was a bottle of water. It was a truly terrible experience especially considering that the daily rate for the specific nights was c €500!!
