Waren sehr zufrieden! : )

Wir waren mit einer kleinen Gruppe hier, um eine Veranstaltung in der Messe Düsseldorf zu besuchen, die man in unter 30 Minuten mit dem Auto erreicht. Die Unterkunft war sauber und ist mit allem ausgestattet, was man für einen kurzen Aufenthalt braucht. Kommunikation per FeWo-direkt-Chat und Check-In-Vorgang waren sehr unkompliziert, Parkplätze sind auf den Straßen um die Wohnung i.d.R. gut zu finden. Unbedingt zu empfehlen ist die Pizzeria nur wenige Häuser weiter! : ) Vielen Dank!

Meivakantie

Wij hebben heel erg leuk gehad. Woning is op zich gedateerd maar schoon en zit erin wat je nodig hebt. Het stadje is super mooi en old town is heel dichtbij. Veel restaurants met heerlijk eten. Onze gast heer was heel aardig en we hebben geen last van gehad dat hij boven woonde. Wij misde wel een stukje tuin of terrasje waar je van de mooi weer kon genieten. Al met al super leuk gehad.

Erwartungen nicht erfüllt

Im Badezimmer leicht Schimmel und Haare. Die Ferienwohnung wurde während unserer Abwesenheit betreten, da auf einmal ein Paket (adressiert an die nachbar Adresse) in unseren Räumlichkeiten stand. Schade, Privatsphäre ist uns wichtig. Morgens um 7 steht man senkrecht im Bett, da die Familie oben drüber beim Start in den Tag die halbe Wohnung zerlegt. Parkmöglichkeiten für mehr als ein Fahrzeug = schlecht! Zusammenfassung: Haben aufgrund der Bilder mehr erwartet, schade eigentlich. Preis in Ordnung.

Wochenende in Essen

Wir haben für ein Wochenende eine kleine Unterkunft für uns (2 Erwachsene, zwei kleine Kinder) benötigt. Die FeWo in Kettwig liegt zwar etwas abseits der Stadt, hat aber in der Nähe einen Supermarkt und einen Bäcker. Liegt allerdings direkt an der Strasse. Parkplätze sind in der Nähe zu finden, man muss vielleicht mal 50 m laufen. Die Wohnung selbst ist rustikal und gemütlich eingerichtet. Wohnbereich und Küche sind durch einen Korridor von den Schlafzimmern getrennt. Das eine Schlafzimmer ist gleichzeitig ein Durchgangszimmer. Fazit, rustikal eingerichteter Altbau, genügend Platz für alle. Super Preis-Leistungs-Verhältnis

Kurzurlaub

Wir waren zufrieden. Die Lage ist super (man muss nur wissen, dass die FeWo an einer Hauptstraße liegt und man somit Verkehrslärm hat). Der Gastgeber sehr freundlich und verbindlich. Einziger Kritikpunkt ist die Sauberkeit. Aber Reinigungsmittel sind vorhanden und man kann zur Not auch selbst Hand anlegen 😉.
