Clean, renovated, light. No amenities. Offered 1 single soap for the sink, shower and the kitchen for a 5 day stay. When asked at the reception, we're told 'it's not a hotel'.
Paid separately for the laundry facility, which includes detergents. Discovered some washing powder left in a small plastic bowl by the machines.
Stayed at half a dozen apartment hotels across Europe and in Germany. No, this is not common.
