Couch Information
No couch currently available for surfing. PLEASE BE ADVISED: I've just moved and I have to do some "upgrading" to accommodate for guests in this new apartment. Keep watching this space for availability - and thank you for your patience!
I [had] a generic sleeping couch. I do not smoke and smoking is not allowed in the apartment. No pets, but love cats. Live alone (at time of writing anyway). Public transportation is pretty good. Parking close is a bit tricky. More than a week would probably be ok, depending. Will give [some sort of] guided tours if wanted, on weekends or natl holidays. Of course there's always the Cologne Cathedral (Dom) to behold as the local landmark. I normally work weekdays and sometimes weekends. If possible, notice at least one week in advance would be much appreciated due to business/travel schedules. Friends (0)| This user does not yet have any friends on CS. |
