Good price/value apartment
Pros:

Really kind owner, close to public transportation, and near Lidl and Tesco Express. The bathroom has been renovated, and the apartment is near a park.

As I understand it, parking is free from Friday 16:30 until Monday 8:30, and on weekdays from 16:30 to 8:30. I parked my rental car on the street during these times and had no issues. I was always able to find a parking space somewhere nearby.

The city center is about 30 minutes away by public transportation. Bus 15 is very convenient for getting into the city, and you can enjoy the view from the upper deck of the double-decker bus.

Cons:

Our room was the only room facing north, and it was little cold. I asked the owner about it, and the next night was better.
Slippers are mentioned in the facilities, but when I asked for it I was told They don't have it. For me it was strange to use bathroom without slippers.

Preiswerte Unterkunft mit kleinen Nachteilen
Pros:

Unkomplizierter Zugang. Vollständig ausgestattete Küche zur Mitbenutzung. Netter Gastgeber!

Cons:

Badezimmer zur Mitbenutzung mit Durchlauferhitzer in der Dusche; funktioniert nicht optimal. Aber kein Problem! Lage ist nicht optimal, in Bezug auf U-Bahn oder Pubs.

Terrible, do not risk.
Pros:

The location.

Cons:

There are numerous things to critique.
The staff wasn't nice nor professional. Two homeowners live on the premises in other rooms inside the house. On three separate occasions, the homeowner left his room to come out and specifically give us critiques.. He told me to take our laundry down the street to dry because he didn't want moisture in the house. What's the point of advertising laundry as a utility on the website when you force us to go to the laundromat anyways. We were not allowed to have our door open. There were other guests there so we had to not only rotate showers between ourselves, but then rotate showers with the other guests who are random people we didn't want to associate with. I'm not sure if this is a European thing, but we were only provided one towel for each person, and no towel in the bathroom. So we often forgot to bring our shower towel into the bathroom and had nothing to dry our hands with. If we wanted to wash our towel after usage, again, we had to go to the local laundromat to do so, since he said he didn't want us hanging or drying anything... even though there are windows to let air in. The biggest grievance was that, since the homeowners lived there, there was their dirty laundry in a basket in the hall, their groceries were on the counter and dishes in the sink, their cleaning supplies were scattered everywhere, their shampoo and conditioner were in the bathroom, etc. Instead of having an apartment of your own that was clean and private, you will instead be living in someone else's house while they are there and actively come out to tell you to stop doing whatever you are doing. Instead of privacy, you have to tip-toe around the homeowners looking out of their room peep-hole. This was truly a terrible experience, and very misleading. There were other issues, but frankly, I'm tired and writing this review on my phone. I'm just happy to be rid of this place.
