Staying with Bernhard was extremely pleasant. He went out of his way to make us feel at home. He made us fresh coffee each morning before we went out. He is a superb host.
At one stage Bernhard went and borrowed a car to drive me from the restaurant back to his place so my food wouldn't get cold before I got back.
Communication wasn't an issue, Bernhard's english is much better than my German.
The apartment was emaculate and has everything you need for an extended stay. The surrounding suburbs are beautiful and the walk from the train station is not difficult even if you are dragging multiple suitcases like I was.
We wish we had stayed longer. I'd definately recommend this place. It's a must.
