In the living and dining rooms, the curtains are translucent, meaning they let in some light to create a cozy ambience, but protect you from outside views. In the bedroom we have dim-out curtains that block out around 80% of the light - this is the normal hotel and apartment standard and meets the majority of needs.

There is no washing machine in the medium apartments, but there are two washing machines and dryers in the basement of De ole School, which can be used free of charge. All loft, large and maisonette apartments have their own washing machine.

In the living area (lower floor) there is a box spring sofa bed that can be folded out and made into. At night you can separate the living room from the kitchen and the dining room behind it with a sliding door. During the day you can fold the whole thing back up again with little effort. The guest toilet is also located on the lower floor.

No, unfortunately for structural reasons it is not possible to install a protective gate on the stairs of the two-story maisonette apartments.

No, unfortunately we can no longer accommodate extra beds in the apartments. (Baby beds can be added.) In the maisonette apartment there is space for 2 people in the double bed in the bedroom and 2 more people in the living room on the sofa bed.

The 5th person sleeps in our large apartments on a comfortable extra bed. A 6th person can find space on the living room sofa (90 x 200 cm).

16 of our 28 apartments are on the ground floor. All of these apartments are barrier-free in terms of their radii and door diameters (=> meet the definition of “barrier-free” according to DIN standard 18040-2). There are no relevant differences in the construction of the apartments.

The shower trays are flat (2 cm high) and the internal dimensions of the shower are 90 x 160 cm. The box spring beds stand on wooden feet and have approx. 10 cm of air space at the bottom. All ground floor apartments have a wheelchair accessible terrace with patio furniture. However, the 5 - 6 cm high threshold of the patio door must be overcome. The terraces are not accessible from the outside.

The saunas are not at ground level. They have a small step at the entrance. The play cellar is also accessible for wheelchairs and strollers via an elevator. A key for the elevator is available upon request.

Important for allergy sufferers to know: Even if apartments are dog-friendly, that doesn't mean that they are often occupied by dogs - ultimately, only a small percentage of our guests have a pet with them. You are welcome to ask us in advance of your booking when the last time there was a “dog booking” in your apartment. And even then: at least with mild allergies there shouldn't be any problems, because our cleaning team is super professional and thorough. In addition, we have smooth exposed concrete everywhere, so no carpets or similar where, for example. B. Dog hair can be permanently stuck.

Smoking is not permitted in the holiday apartments. Even outside: mutual consideration and respect are not outdated values ​​at De ole School.  🙂

• Load the dishwasher and run it one last time

If a mishap happens to you (extreme dirt, liquids on the floor or work surfaces, etc.), please clean it up immediately or let us know briefly - even if there is damage: we don't believe that anyone intentionally damages something - but it can happen. that something breaks. We would be happy if you reported the damage immediately so that we don't have to find out about it during the final cleaning after you leave. Then we can provide a replacement in good time and also offer the next guests complete equipment.

There are three outdoor saunas accessible to all guests. The saunas are located behind Huus Meven and can each accommodate 2-3 people at the same time. You can open the doors with your individual key code. This also activates the heating of the sauna at the same time. Within 10 minutes it reaches an operating temperature of almost 90 degrees.

If you just want to take a quick look at the saunas, please enter “2” in advance (with a tick). If you accidentally turn on a sauna, that's no problem - it switches itself off after 1 hour anyway.

Our rain showers are set to eco water pressure so as not to use a lot of water unnecessarily in the interests of a sustainable orientation of the district. However, the pressure is high enough so that it doesn't detract from the showering experience.

We don't have a barbecue area, for various reasons. Especially because the changing wind can unfortunately cause the smoke to drift towards the apartments... if you have your own grill, you can, if the weather is good, at the "Thing" (our small "market square" with seating directly between the saunas and the outdoor playground). Of course, mutual consideration is ALWAYS the top priority. An electric grill on the roof terrace is always possible.

Or you can click on the three dots (“More”) on the right in the “Google Chrome” browser and select “Stream” in the first step and the desired source in the second. This can also be done e.g. B. your own screen or part of your own screen can be shared on the TV.

The waste is separated into paper, packaging with the green dot, organic waste and residual waste. Appropriately labeled containers are available on the property between Huus Walden and the street “Am Buchholz”. Please pay attention to the different color code for the bin lids in the Plön district compared to other places: paper = green, recyclables/plastic packaging = yellow, organic waste = brown, residual waste = black. We also have a glass bin for daily needs, but would like to ask you to dispose of larger quantities of bottles and used glass directly in the waste glass containers in town (e.g. in the large parking lot at Edeka ALPEN: the containers can be driven directly to the car become).

How to make Moccamaster filter coffee:

1. Fill the water container with the desired amount of cold water and replace the lid.

2. Place a filter in the filter holder (rinse optionally) and add the desired amount of coffee powder: a level Moccamaster measuring spoon for approx. two cups or a heaped teaspoon per cup is the standard for medium-strength coffee. DO NOT press down the coffee powder or tap the filter holder, otherwise the water will not penetrate through and the machine will overflow.

3. Then place the filter holder with the coffee powder on the filter holder. Make sure that the filter holder is horizontal and clicks into place, otherwise no water can flow through and the machine will overflow.

4. Then place the glass jug (with lid) on the warming plate.

5. Press the on switch and off you go - after a few minutes the delicious filter coffee is ready!
