The shared living area and TV were useful, and there’s a good-looking kitchen seating area with an oven and microwave. But the kitchen has just one bowl and no other plates, cutlery, or tools, so bring an opener if you want wine or beer. The kitchen is also videotaped. Room 5 is tiny, with a bed, bin, jacket hooks and two hangers, sheets, three pillows, and two blankets. Turning the key in the room door can be a real struggle, so be careful not to break it. The bathroom by the entrance is in fair condition by German standards; the one near the kitchen is in bad shape, although its floor tiles look nice. I also found someone’s toothpaste left in the sink. Getting inside takes some planning. The main building code arrives only after you register and verify who you are, so contact the owner before you get to the door. The Guesthouse door has a PIN that can be hard to enter, and even the right code sometimes doesn’t open it. The phone number on the sign outside didn’t connect for me, but the number in the booking was more useful. The area is full of South Asians, and there are often streets with rubbish around. People have different ways of living, and crime can happen anywhere, so keep an eye on yourself, your companions, and your things. The small shared lounge and TV are there for everyone; remember the password uses lowercase letters only. My boyfriend and I had an interesting stay. If you need somewhere affordable for a short or medium-length stay, or need a place quickly, it can work, and you’ll meet plenty of people, some cool and some less so. If you have time to find somewhere nicer, I’d spend it. The owner seems not to care about small details that would make a guest’s stay better. Be patient with the doors, both the key lock and the others. Hope you all stay safe.
