Welcome to Cologne
Welcome to Cologne
The entire apartment is equipped with a Smarthome system.
With the switch at the top of the stairs, the light can be switched on and off centrally when entering or leaving the flat. In some areas, motion sensors control the lighting. The light in the stairwell goes out automatically.
When a window is open, the heating switches off automatically.
The system not only provides living comfort, but also helps us to operate the apartment in an energy-saving way. Thank you for your support.
Central tablet control for light and air conditioning
The tablet in the kitchen can be used to control lighting and air conditioning throughout the apartment. Click through the settings, you will quickly find your way around.
The 5 touch points
You will find the switches of the Smarthome control at various places in the apartment. A light touch is enough. In addition to the touch area in the middle, the corners of the switch also switch. Just pay attention to the labelling.
The rubbish bins are located on Rochusstraße. You leave the flat to the right, go up the stairs to the left. In front of the building you will find the partially enclosed rubbish bins. Please make sure that you separate your rubbish correctly.

Access to the flat is by means of a keyless entry code. One code opens the front door, the other code opens the flat door.
You have received both codes by e-mail. The codes are valid during your stay and change afterwards.
