The apartment was lovely and clean and nicely decorated which made it a nice place to spend time. The location is very good, close to transport, but we found it very easy to walk into town and back. There are a few places to eat in the area as well as several supermarkets. As a host Philipp was very friendly and informative.
The only thing to note is that while there is a washing machine facility it is located in the host's residence which means that they have to do your washing for you. Philipp and his wife were generous, doing two loads of washing for us while we were there but I found it a little bit awkward relying on someone else for this.
All in all I would definitely recommend Philipp's place.
