Nestled between liquor stores and late night eateries, if ever there was a catfish for Airbnb. This would be it.
The good stuff: the guy who checked us in was on time, very close to U Heinrich-Heine-Straße, strong shower.
We were a family of 7 who stayed and were extremely disappointed by the quality of this place. All of the beds were singles and incredibly lumpy with my mum's bed basically having a hole in the middle of her mattress which meant she had to sleep on either the sides of the bed. I moved onto a sofa bed and what a mistake removing the bedding was as it revealed disgustingly stained mattresses (I don't even want to know what with). We all decided to make our own pillows from our clothes as the ones given were not suitable and had a stale smell. I also wouldn't touch the spare bedding in the wardrobe either.
The front door was consistently open with drunks sat on the doorstep which we had to climb over to get into the building.
Considered moving to another place as I was so upset by this place but expensive to rebook last min for 7 people.
Be careful as the kettle reaked of bleach, we had to boil the kettle 4 times before it was useable. The door was a bit difficult to open and needed some patience.
I'm a deep sleeper but you couldn't ignore the constant noise in this place, as it happened every 10 min or so, I think it's the vibrations from the transport system, however given we were a few floors up, didn't expect this to wake me up every morning! The flat upstairs also has wooden flooring so if you get unlucky, you can hear all the footsteps and stomping around. One of the main bedrooms at the front had a straight curtain rail across the bay window with not enough material therefore only 50% of the window could be covered.
I am shocked that this place has so many good reviews, this is probably one of the worse and deceiving air BnB places I stayed in. Such a shame as this place has great potential with its high ceilings and ornate detailing around the walls. Clearly just trying to make the most profit by not investing in the place at all. I wish I had never booked and will definitely not be booking here again.
