This was an ideal set up for me as it was close to the city center, and yet felt very much removed from the buzz. The view is onto the park of the Neumünster church, with large trees and a wooded atmosphere. The botanical garden is a 2 minute walk, as is a river trail that provides for hikes and runs either to the lake or into the forest above the city. The space was generously sized, comfortable, and spiritedly decorated in a way that is distinct from most generic Airbnbs, including many live plants. This is an apartment of real people, and that make the experience feel less like I was in a business model, and more in keeping with the original promise of the sharing economy. The only caution I would provide is that the bells of the Church occasionally disturbed me during the night as they ring past midnight. Overall and excellent stay.
