Penthouse with green view. Near the Philharmonie
Great, I will recommend it. :)

central apartment(sightseeing&fair) fully equipped
I stayed for four months during my internship. There was more than enough space for me alone and I really had everything I could need, including privacy. It was clean when I arrived, and I got additional bed linen and towels for my longer stay. Besides this Rabea was always very understanding, accommodating and helpful in general, even before I arrived. I spend most of my time working, so in the end I didn’t do a lot with all the space and facilities, but it was perfect to unwind and relax after a long work day. During the break I discovered that the location was also perfect to go places. You are next to the bus stop and to Rüttenscheid, but at the same time far away enough to not have any noise problems. There is also a baker, small cute cafe and kiosk in walking distance. The bus lines that pass the bus-stop can bring you to Rüttenscheid, the park, main station, and most of the bus-stops that you would mainly use, like berlinerplatz. All in all great hosts, place and location.

Cozy attic apartment
We really had everything we needed: Relaxing nights after exciting days at the Dokomi fair in Düsseldorf, which was very easy to reach. It was very pleasant to come to such a clean and cozy accommodation and to be personally received so kindly. We surprisingly liked the surroundings, even if we didn't have time for further exploration. We'll have to come back again.

Old building apartment modern & cozy
The apartment is perfect if you are in the Ruhrpott for a few days. There is so much to do and the apartment is centrally located with shops nearby. Particularly noteworthy is the spacious and beautiful apartment.

Airconditioned Flat in central Ruhrarea location
Me, my husband & 9 month old stayed in Ulf & Charlottes apartment and it was honestly wonderful. Beautifully presented and had everything we needed and more. All the little touches also like the baby snacks & toys was lovely. Both very responsive and informative. Always happy to help whenever. We couldn’t have picked a better apartment and better hosts. Thank you for having us!

I enjoyed every moment of my stay. Thank you Axel.

Central Wilhelminian-style ambiance
The apartment is located in a quiet neighborhood in the middle of Essen. There are very good shopping facilities (Aldi, Lidl, Rewe), several bakeries and restaurants that are within walking distance. The apartment is very tastefully decorated and looks exactly like the photos. We especially liked the brick wall with the timber frame and the wooden floorboards. There is a balcony to the courtyard and the kitchen is great! Rüdiger is a great host. He greeted us personally, which we thought was very nice, especially since he had to wait for us. He had many good tips for bike tours and activities in Essen and the surrounding area. Essen is an ideal starting point for excursions in and around the Ruhr area. For example, the musical "Starlight Express" is 25 minutes away by car. We really enjoyed the days and would be happy to come back.

"Schöner Wohnen" in the countryside of Wuppertal
Iordanis' place was excellent in all respects - it was spacious, well kitted out, warm (as we visited in December) and homely. Access to ample parking was very useful too as we had two cars with us. Iordanis was a very responsive host and was accessible whenever we needed him. The Christmas tree with the lighting was a nice touch as well!

Been here for the second time. I would be happy to come back.

We felt very comfortable in Christina's apartment. Everything was as described and we will be happy to come back. Communication was fast and totally friendly. An individual arrangement was also possible - that was great and was very accommodating to us. Thanks for a great stay!

Dreamy old building apartment in a historic ambiance
Our stay in Wesel was wonderful. Jasmina and Akif's apartment was just as beautiful as shown in the pictures or as described and superbly equipped. The location is good, nice and quiet and we liked to use the playground in the residential complex. The parking space that belongs to the apartment is also very practical. Jasmina always got back to us quickly and also helped with tips for the area. The exchange with her was always very pleasant and uncomplicated. If we are in the area again, we will be happy to come back.

We had a great stay at Wilfried's, his apartment is as described and you will feel at home. You can easily find places to park around the building and the shops are not very far away. You could find a moment of tranquility by going to the pool which is also in the building.

Stylish 1-Room+Balcony Close to airport/trade fair
Great location for me going to a conference all week at the Messe. Close to bus stop from the Flughafen Düsseldorf, and the streetcar either into town or to the Messe. Lots of options like ride sharing, bike and scooter sharing. The apartment was in a great building with very nice people. The apartment was just as described in the listing. Very clean and I felt at home.
