Apartment Mientje:
Moin and welcome to the apartment Mientje. The apartment Mientje was renovated in 2017 and lovingly and comfortably furnished for you (70 m² for 2 persons). More than 100 years ago, the house was built by Mientje and Ülderk Klock, the grandparents of today's owner. Only the gable with its typical arched windows was preserved and restored. Everything else was rebuilt several times and so was the apartment Mientje. The apartment Mientje has a sep. Entrance and from the hallway access to the living-dining area and to the bathroom or  sep. WC. The kitchen equipment (stove, dishwasher, fridge, microwave, kettle, coffee maker, toaster, egg cooker, blender and hand mixer) as well as crockery and cutlery will make cooking easier. You can enjoy the food and drinks in the adjacent dining area.   The living room with 3er, -2er Sitzgarnitur and armchair, crockery and bookcase, television (satellite reception) and original chair of Mientje, invite you to linger. You can use the Internet in the entire living area via Wi-Fi, but it is not until the end of 2018, at the beginning of 2019 that the switch to fiber optics will take place, which will make faster access possible. In the adjoining bedroom is a double bed (1.80 x 2.00 m). There is also a mirrored wardrobe and a small table with 2 chairs. A luggage rack completes the area.
