Very charming city with a convenient stay
We had a short two-night stay as we visited the Zollverein UNESCO site and the lovely town of Ketterwig on our way to Koln. The space had everything we needed and it was very easy to park and walk to all the shops and restaurants and enjoy a great run along the Ruhr path. Peter was very welcoming and helpful and the place suited our needs. It is split into two units but they are across a short hall with your own private entrance and exit.

Very Nice!
Peter is an excellent host. He speaks English well and is very accommodating to those of us who are still learning Deutsch! He gave me lot of helpful info about the area - and Germany, in general. This place has a lot of character and was just perfect for my stay.

Warm welcome
Our host Peter was very welcoming and we got a nice and fresh apartment. A plus for us was that Peter speaks both Swedish and Norwegian :) The immediate area was very nice and there is also plenty to see if you want to go a little further. Thank you for being so accommodating!

Super Bude
Nicht nur, dass die Wohnung gemütlich und stilvoll renoviert und eingerichtet ist, für 4 Leute reichlich Platz bietet, auch übergroße Fahrräder einen trockenen Platz im Schuppen angeboten bekommen, die Vermieter für einen netten Plausch zu haben sind und die empfohlende Eisdiele nach wenigen Minnuten Fußweg voll und ganz überzeugen kann. Nein, bei berechtigter Beschwerde über das Wetter während der Anreise per Rad gibt's am nächsten Tag auch noch Sonnenschein und leichten Rückenwind (Angabe der Reiserichtung nicht vergessen!) frei Wohnung.
