Fantastic, brilliant, amazing - think of all the good words and they will describe our stay at this apartment! It was luxurious, spacious, spotlessly clean and had everything we needed. It had quality furniture, appliances, windows, cushions, rugs, blankets, taps, light switches, sinks, you name it - they have thought of everything here with clever use of modern technology in every room!
THE ROOMS -
The living area was relaxing and the TV, wifi and surround sound all worked perfectly. The bedroom with its ceiling stars and automatic floor lighting was charming. The bed was very comfortable and as the apartment is situated in a peaceful location away from the trains and boats, we were never disturbed getting to sleep. We liked the bathroom mirror's coloured lighting and the shower was nice and powerful.
THE LOCATION -
Great - a short, scenic stroll down the hill to the river. St Goar is one of the nicest spots along the river here - just the right size and a good base from which to see everywhere else. You pass Rheinfels Castle on your way down which is a must-do activity while you are there. Other activities we enjoyed were pottering around the small villages up and down the Rhine (which you can get to via boat, car, train or bike) including of course St Goar, Rüdesheim (where we took the cable car over the vineyards to the top for excellent views, a picnic and a forest walk), Oberwesel, Bacharach and Bingen and visiting a few other castles. Koblenz, Bonn and Cologne are a bit further away but make a nice contrast if you have time. There's a nearby outdoor swimming pool too. We had a car and there was ample car parking right in front of the apartment.
Last but not least, the owners - Wolfgang and Gabi are the nicest people and great hosts - they ensured we had a lovely time and one we will always remember. Thank you both for a wonderful stay!
