Beautiful property

We had a brilliant stay at Ruth's place. The family history of the building and the lovely views over the town made all the steps worthwhile! The apartment was spacious and right in the centre of town. We would stay here again if back in the area.

Beautiful authentic and originally arranged rooms

There are 2 enterances on the appartement, the one on the back is 2 floors higher than the main one, where there are outside stars and 3 levels to get to thé appartement. Beautiful view on the city, well equiped kitchen, older but very functional bathroom. Floors are nowhere flat but that's part of the charm of An "vakwerk" house. Car needs to be parked 1km further (deze) but you are allowed to unload the car in front of tte appartement. We loved the place!

Wir waren ein Wochenende da und es hat uns sehr, sehr gut gefallen! Es hat eine super Lage direkt in der Altstadt. Bei unser Ankunft haben wir eine kurze Führung durch das Haus bekommen, wobei uns auch die Geschichte des Hauses, (passend zum Namen) näher gebracht wurde ;)Alle waren sehr nett und zuvorkommend.Wir sind begeistert und kommen gerne wieder.

Schöne Wohnung im Zentrum in einem historischen Haus

Alle Sehenswürdigkeiten vom historischen Monschau waren zu Fuß zu erreichen, parken am Haus ist nicht möglich, kostenfreier Parkplatz bei der Vermieterin ca. 1 km entfernt, Einrichtung mit alten Möbelstücken und neueren, die zum Charme des Hauses passen, ebenso Dekostücke, niedrige Türstürze (Achtung Kopfschmerzen) und zwei Schwellen in der Wohnung (Stolpergefahr) und steile Treppen, aber das gehört nun mal zu einen alten Haus, sehr nette und aufmerksame Vermieterin, überhaupt waren alle Monschauer, die wir kennengelernt haben, ausgesprochen nett und hilfsbereit.

Sehr schöne Ferienwohnung

Wir waren sehr freudig überrascht. In so einer gemütlichen und mit Liebe eingerichteten Ferienwohnung haben wir sehr selten gewohnt. Frau Breuer ist eine sehr nette und aufmerksame Vermieterin. Sie hat den Charme dieses alten Hauses bewahrt und geschmackvoll alle Modernisierungen integriert. Wir kommen gerne wieder und können die Ferienwohnung bedenkenlos weiterempfehlen. Außerdem liegt die Wohnung mitten in der schönen Stadt und man kann alles zu Fuß erreichen. Besser geht nicht !!!

Gemütlicher Familienurlaub (Fr. - Di.)

Wir haben zum ersten Mal eine Ferienwohnung gemietet und waren wirklich positiv überrascht. Vom ersten Tag an haben wir uns in der gemütlich eingerichteten Wohnung fast wie zuhause gefühlt. Alles was gebraucht wurde war vorhanden. Die Vermieterin war überaus freundlich und zuvorkommend. Wir durften sogar kostenlos unsere beiden Autos bei ihr parken. Wir werden bestimmt wieder kommen. Vielen Dank!
