Nice place for short stay

The apartment is cozy, but I would say too expensive for little comfort. Nevertheless we liked it and the district of Oranjebuurt a lot.

If you’re wanting a nice romantic weekend in a lovely apartment then your partner might be looking for a divorce afterwards. However, if you’re a casual traveller willing to live in what is effectively student accommodation then it’s fine. Herman, the owner is a very nice chap.

Safe spot

Family like neighborhood that made us feel safe walking everywhere. Bus line (that we didn’t use) and grocery store down the street. It was nice to have a small kitchen to prepare and eat our breakfasts as we watch the neighborhood come alive in the mornings. The kitchen could be a bit cleaner, and I did some extras for my own sake. Beds and bedding were clean, and that was important to us. Shower and towels could have been better. We didn’t use the living room space other than to keep our luggage. We spent our days exploring Groningen, and this apartment served us well as a safe base.

One-month stay in August

I was very satisfied with my stay, and I'll be happy to return if the opportunity arises. This is a very comfortable apartment in a great neighborhood, and Herman was an excellent host. Things were in very good condition, except for a couple of normal maintenance problems that arose during my stay, and which Herman addressed politely and promptly. The kitchen is small, but very functional (with a pleasant view of the street below, as in the other rooms). Noise from the street or from neighbors was very minimal, never a problem. There is a bus stop very nearby; very convenient, if needed. It was August, so the weather was occasionally quite warm. That was ok, as several windows can be opened, a fan is provided, and there's even a skylight that opens for ventilation.

Moved after one night

I booked this accommodation as I thought it was in the old town (this was not the case). The host, Hermann warned me of the stairs for access, but as I was used to stairs in a similar property in Amsterdam, I thought that they would not be a problem. However these stairs were, in my opinion, extremely dangerous as were the stairs/steps within the apartment. The access to the apartment was through the first floor flat passing by a kitchen and toilet beside the entrance door. We stayed only one night of a five night booking. In comparison with previous stays elsewhere, in my opinion, this was little more than upmarket student accommodation.

Convenience and price

I stayed here while getting my daughter moved in for her study abroad semester. I picked it because it had the amenities I wanted and the price. It does have quite a few of the steep stairs, which is a Netherlands thing. The layout is odd and the place is very small, but it worked for me. The bed was comfortable. The outlets were minimal and in the middle of the walls, making it interesting to charge electronic devices. The towels had a terrible odor - not sure if they need replacement or it was the detergent, but it was not pleasant smell either way. Coffee maker and coffee grounds, however only enough grounds for 2 pots of coffee. I didn’t ask for more - it was nice he provided them. It is a 20 minute walk to city center, and a beautiful walk. A grocery store is about 5-10 minute walk away, but other than that, not many options that I saw.

Die Kommunikation mit dem freundlichen Gastgeber verlief problemlos.Die Lage der Wohnung ist top. (leider ist das nicht alles)Fahrradständer sind direkt vor der Tür zu finden (eine Abstellmöglichkeit hinterm Haus oder im Keller gibt es nicht) und auch eine Bushaltestelle befindet sich direkt vor der Tür.Leider ist ansonsten alles ziemlich in die Jahre gekommen und mufft leider auch n bisschen vor sich hin. Zudem lädt das in die Jahre gekommene Interieur nicht zum Verweilen in der Wohnung ein. Reisende sollten beachten, dass zwei sehr steile, enge Treppen zu bewältigen sind um in die Küche und dann weiter ins Schlafzimmer, Bad, Klo, Wohnzimmer zu gelangen. Preis / Leistung : nur durch die Lage zu rechtfertigen

Le logement est très bien situé et permet un accès rapide à pied au centre-ville, ou à vélo, il y a un loueur très proche. Le tarif est très intéressant également. Possibilités de parking gratuit à 15min à pied.La maison est en travaux et l'entrée de l'appartement au 1er étage. Il faut savoir que ce logement est sur deux étages avec escalier assez raide (petite cuisine au 1er, salon, chambre WC et salle de douche au 2eme). L'équipement est suffisant.Par contre, appartement très sale : la douche surtout la porte est pleine de moisissures marron, drap tâché (sang) et mèche de cheveux ( avaient-ils été changés?), chaises collantes, éviter de regarder sous le lit... Ménage (pourtant facturé) à revoir !

Der Gastgeber war freundlich beim Check in ich hab mich gleich willkommen gefühlt. Das Apartment ist zweckmäßig ausgestattet man findet alles was man braucht mir gefiel die Küche und das Apartment insgesamt gut.Ihr müsst nur top zu Fuß sein weil die Treppe zwischen Küche und Wohnräumen sehr steil ist.Mit einiger Übung hab ich den Teller Bolognese aber auch hochbekommen ;)Super idee das oben im Wohnzimmer Wasserkocher und Kaffeemaschine sehr annehmlich.Das einzige was nicht so top ist das ein Regal in den Wohnraum ragt und man die Tür zum Badezimmer nicht komplett öffnen kann und so immer nah an der Treppe vorbei muss.Insgesamt hab ich mich schnell "zu Hause" gefühlt und wohl gefühlt. Bushaltestelle direkt vor der Haustür und die Innenstadt auch zu Fuß gut zu erreichen
