We enjoyed our stay very much. Josef's place is in a great location and is very comfortable. We had plenty of room for our family of 4 and Josef was very responsive when we had questions. He welcomed us with beer and bottled water in the fridge which was much appreciated after traveling. We would definitely stay here again on a future trip to Cologne. Vielen dank!

Great location and the apartment was nice. But they did not respond to my emails about parking and check in was at 4 and no one showed up to let us in until 4:30. We asked if we could check in at 3:30 and they said it was ok. We stood outside for over an hour. Also, the trash cans were not emptied. When I texted they apologized and gave us a bottle of wine.

Fantastic located VRBO

I very much enjoyed my stay at this VRBO. The amenities were perfect the whole flat very cozy. Not 5 min away from biblical transportation and less to many shops in this neighborhood. Very safe to walk and hang out. I will book it again next time I’m in Cologne.

Amazing Apartment and Location

This was my first time to Cologne and this apartment was absolutely amazing. Located in what I would say was the most beautiful part of Cologne, it is quiet and located close to the Rhein, supermarkets, restaurants, transit. It was very easy to get to where I wanted to go from this location. The host was also incredible and was quick to answer any questions I had and fix any issues. It was absolutely perfect for my 5 week stay and I would definitely stay here again when I return.

Great neighborhood

This is an excellent VRBO. The apartment is on the ground floor. It is well stocked with everything one would need. The kitchen has a fancy coffee maker and plenty of plates and utensils. It even has a dishwasher. The bed is comfy. The apartment is outside the city center, but close to an s-bahn stop. The Cologne transit system is easy to navigate and quickly reach any spot in the city. We really enjoyed our stay.

Week long city break

Stayed in cologne for a week visiting the city and surrounding area. Lovely region of Germany. The apartment is situated to the south a short tram ride (about 10 mins) from old town/Dom or about a 30 min walk along the river which is pleasant. The area around the apartment also has numerous nice bars and restaurants. The apartment is very comfortable and well sized, good kitchen facilities and a huge tv in the living room. Host (Josef) was really helpful, let us check in early and very responsive to messages. There was a brief issue on our first day with WiFi which he resolved quickly. Also called by one day with a bottle of wine for us which was really kind, excellent host. Would certainly stay again if visiting the city.

Fantastic find

Great apartment, the photos don't do it justice. There is a private garage off location for leaving the car. It was a reasonable price agreed with the owner of the apartment.We were given instructions of how to find and access the apartment before we arrived and the owner came and said hello. He lives in the apartment next door.Location was brilliant in a vibrant suburb with all shops, cafes, restaurants, supermarket, pharmacy etc in the neighbourhood.Apartment was more spacious than expected. Only criticism we have is the noise of people walking past late at night and rubbish collection early in the morning was disruptive. The shower and bath had mould on it which didn't look pleasant. In terms of getting about there's tram and Ubahn and bus stops at the end of road. Took about 20mins to get into the city centre. It's walkable too fif about similar length of time .ation

Tolles Apartment, alles da was man braucht und was nicht da war,braucht man nicht. Problemlösung ( Schlüssel war nicht da, wo angegeben) durch Josef innerhalb von 2 Minuten. Leckeres Kölsch und Wasser stand im Kühlschrank bereit, Wohnung war schon beheizt, Betten bezogen. Josef hätte auch für weitere Probleme schnell eine Lösung gefunden, gab uns auch noch Tipps zum Einkaufen, alles super, jederzeit wieder.

Die Wohnung war sehr sauber, geräumig und gut gelegen. Die Garage hätte gerne vorher einmal sauber gemacht werden können und befindet sich sich auch nicht, wie beschrieben, auf dem Gelände. Es ist eine Terasse oder Patio beschrieben, wenn damit der Innenhof gemeint ist, in dem die Mülltonnen stehen, läd dieser nicht zum sitzen ein.

Eine sehr schön gelegene Wohnung. Die Wohnung ist sehr geräumig mit einer schönen großen Küche. Die Schlafmöglichkeiten sind gut. Alles sehr sauber. Einige Kleinigkeiten sind etwas in die Jahre gekommen und könnten mal erneuert werden (z.B. Zugseil beim Rolladen). Insgesamt eine sehr empfehlenswerte Wohnung. Wir haben uns sehr wohl gefühlt.

Die Wohnung ist wirklich eine Perle mitten in der Südstadt. Sie ist super ausgestattet, es ist alles da, was man braucht und noch viel mehr. Zur Begrüßung Kölsch und Wasser in den Kühlschrank zu stellen, ist eine wunderbare Geste. Die Kommunikation lief perfekt, Josef hat sehr schnell und freundlich auf Fragen geantwortet und sich sehr flexibel gezeigt. Vielen Dank nochmal dafür! Die Parkmöglichkeit in der Nähe haben wir dankbar genutzt. Wir fanden die Wohnung noch viel schöner als auf den Fotos und die Lage ist wirklich kaum zu übertreffen - mitten im Geschehen. Toll! Wir würden die Wohnung jederzeit wieder mieten.
