If you are thinking about Oktoberfest, I'd recommend

Stuttgart Volksfest instead.

Munich is great, until the foreigners (English) get there. And as a result, the lovely people of Munich start to resent it all as well.

Stuttgart on the other hand has a festival about 1/5 the size, and is relatively unspoilt - and the people are really nice too.

But if you're not going for the Fest, Munich is lovely and picturesque in the centre, but cramped and busy around it.
