Amazing Value
The location and property itself was perfection. We had a lot of space, the apartment was well equipped, and it was centrally located. The best part is the central location was also quiet the way the apartment is situated.

Schönes Stadthaus in traumhafter Altstadt
Das Haus ist historisch und traditionell schmal, dafür über 3 Etagen. Es wurde liebevoll restauriert und eingerichtet. Alles war sehr sauber, der Kontakt mit Sandra sehr nett. Die Ausstattung der Küche war auch sehr gut, alles vorhanden. Wir waren mit drei kleinen Kindern dort, die auch ihre Freude hatten. Nachts ist es an den Wochenenden etwas lauter, aber das ist eben so in Innenstädten, hat uns nicht weiter gestört. Danke für einen tollen Urlaub!
