Gorch-Fock-Straße 2

Apt. 5 has a little ground-floor terrace, and the beach and promenade are about a 500 m walk away. We loved the central spot, especially for morning walks along the shore with our small dog. The bedroom is a bit cramped and sits by the building entrance, so cars parking at night or people talking can be disruptive. Still, it's a lovely apartment and a good setup for a holiday with a small dog.

App.9 is in a great location, and the reception and caretaker were really friendly and attentive. But the apartment isn't suitable for four adults: the upper floor is cramped and full of awkward sloping ceilings, with only a tiny WC, and it's really for short people. The bathroom has no room to put anything down. Although the tiles look new, the shower tray and sink siphon are very old. There are two tiny wardrobes in the bedroom, both smaller than broom cupboards, and one is stuffed with cushions and other things, leaving nowhere for suitcases. The balcony is in terrible shape, with weeds growing high, which is really not okay at this apartment's price. The furnishings are just okay, and the low sloping ceilings mean the place only works for small people. Such a shame.

The listing details are accurate, though they don't always tell you everything. Amenities vary between apartments according to each owner's taste. Laundry costs more than described because the cycle takes longer than stated. There's a supermarket about 500 meters away, with a kiosk, restaurant, and pizzeria roughly 100-300 meters away.

Our apartment was modern and really nice, and it had Wi-Fi. We did get plagued by mosquitoes, though, since there were no fly screens on the windows. A drying rack would've been handy for our laundry after trips to the beach.
