Ulrich and Sigrid are very hospitable and gracious hosts. The communication was great and very easy. They have a beautiful vegetable garden and because they were out of town for most of the time we stayed there, they were kind enough to allow us to use some of the vegetables that were growing, which was really the highlight of our stay. They also made us a jar of homemade pesto from the basil in their garden before they left. Very kind! The only thing about the apartment to know is that it is a daylight basement apartment attached to the owner's house. We didn't realize this when we were renting it and probably would not have rented it had we known. The owners have done a lovely job of converting the place to a rental unit and it has a good amount of light thanks to a sliding glass door onto the sunroom and then out to the garden. But it is still a basement and has the common limitations that basements have with regards to airflow, musty smells, etc. And you can of course hear the people above you very easily. Again, no criticism of the hosts, there is nothing they could do about it, but just a fact of being an attached basement apartment.
