Wer es einfach, bescheiden und zugleich sauber und komfortabel mag, so wie ich, der ist hier bestens aufgehoben.
Pros:

Sehr günstig gelegen, ausgezeichnetes Preis-Leistungs-Verhältnis, ich wurde sehr freundlich empfangen, das Zimmer war klein aber sauber, komfortabel, gut ausgestattet und vom Balkon hat man eine tolle Sicht zur Zugspitze. Außerdem kriegt man im Zum Franziskaner auch ein ausgezeichnetes Frühstück.

Cons:

Höchstens, dass ich dort nicht zu Abend essen konnte. Aber ein paar Häuser weiter gibt es die Pizzeria Da Franco. Kann ich jedem empfehlen! 🙂

Lovely local stay and super convenient for our onward plans
Pros:

Zum Franziskaner is situated in Grainau, a short distance from Zugspitze, which we visited the morning after our one night's stay. The room was a good size, clean and modern. The bed side table was equipped with a wireless charger built in which I have personally never seen before! Continental breakfast was lovely with fresh bread and hot drink pre-ordered when we arrived. Thanks for a lovely stay.

Cons:

Parking is on the street, which was fine for us as we only had a small car, but if you're driving something bigger/longer like an estate you might have issues. Cash was required for the tourism tax which wasn't ideal as we try to stay cashless when travelling these days, but fair enough, we stopped and got some when we were in town anyway.
