Your apartment with one room for 2 people

MikitaRating, 5 stars1 week ago

We stayed at Malonda’s place for 3 nights. She was a great host. We arrived there from Australia after a long long flight and she prepared vegetarian noodle pasta for us and prepared a welcome package on arrival. The place is small & cosy, good for a family of 2 or 3. The place is 10-15 mins away from the airport. The apartment is 2-3 levels below the ground/parking space and you need to use the steep stairs to get in the apartment. Something to consider if you have lots of luggage or having difficulty walking. Overall our stay was really good. Thank you Malonda.

MarioRating, 5 stars1 month ago

Everything is as described. When we arrived, the key handover was completely problem-free with a key safe. The apartment was super clean and tidy. Everything you need for a problem-free comfortable stay is available. I would like to classify the contact with the landlord Christoph as uncomplicated, friendly and helpful. It was also pleasant for us that you could park right in front of the house. Shopping facilities (Edeka etc.) in the immediate vicinity of the apartment are available. All in all, a nice stay. Friends and acquaintances who want to explore the Schaffhausen region and the surrounding area in Switzerland, but do not want to pay Swiss prices, I would recommend the apartment. Kind regards, Christoph
