'The art room' - Room with charm and balcony
To all your loving guests, i have created this room in a way as i love to be treated as a guest myself in the best and most beautiful places you can find, being on holiday or staying for a short business trip in a foreign city. A big box spring bed with a topper, natural materials, walls that show me real art and thick curtains that make it possible to keep out nearly all light when needed. My special feature for you is that i have stretched a fabric on a view walls, the old fashion way on a wooden frame, what gives the room a very warm feeling. A nice walk-in shower with doors will keep the water inside the shower, so even do the bathroom has a very modern design the floor will not get wet all over the bathroom, i think you understand me here Then i have the luxury to offer you this apartment on the first floor with a balcony overlooking the back garden of this multi-family resident that was built in 1904 and even do we are in the middle of the ' Vorderer Westen' the place to be in Kassel you will enjoy the quietness that surrounds you, most off the time and some lovely afternoon sun. Boutique shops, places for breakfast, bars and restaurants, as well as bio and traditional supermarkets and bakeries are around the corner. Looking forward to welcome you soon in Kassel! Bram
