Ralf‘s Place is quite cute. The location is very good. Lots of supermarkets near by. Belvedere Castle nearby - great to jog to. And an extremely nice park in walking distance.
Some further observations I made during my 1 month stay included:
* shower head was broken on day 1, Ralf replaced it immediately the following day
* no toaster as per the ad description, but Ralf brought one when he fixed the shower
* not sure I would regard this apartment as “brand new“ - parts of it are quite worn down
* kitchen, lounge & bedroom is all in one room about 30sqm. I thought this is not very clear in the ad.
* Noisy neighbours
* The shower leaks into the room every single time (a lot). Ralf was aware of this when I told him.
* Temperature Gage for the heating does not work. Not a biggie, it just gets too warm or too cold quite quickly. I told Ralf twice, he said it would be easy to replace, but I never heard from him again.
* There is zero sunshine in this flat (ground floor with a tall building close to the two only windows)
* The toilet has a window right by the entrance hall. The window has frosted glass, a blind covers it which itself is partially see through, and there is a motion-sensitive light. So every time you use the toilet, it lights up like an aquarium and people walking by will see the basic shape of your body. Not very private and quite awkward when someone walks past.
* the “workspace with comfortable chair” is not comfortable at all if you work a lot on your computer.
