Holiday Apartments

Holiday apartments are a very convenient and cost effective way to visit and stay in Freiburg.  They are usually a lot cheaper than overnight hotel stays and a lot more spacious too.  The only snag is that to get one of these at a cost-effective price, you need to stay a minimum of three nights, as the owner needs to clean the apartment ready for the next guests and they very often do not live in Freiburg.  You do not get breakfast or any meals included in the price but what you do often get is a parking space, a kitchen or a kitchenette unit, TV, more space, privacy etc etc.  Very often however, the apartment owner does not speak a lot of English and so it could be that you need help in arranging a stay at one from somebody who does speak German. Failing that, it is also possible to contact the owner via email and they can translate the booking via the http://babelfish.yahoo.com web service.
