I stayed in 2 properties with Designapartments Potsdam from early March to end of May in Geschwister-Scholl Strasse and Hermann Elfing Strasse for business. The first impression: it is a stylish flat. …

I figured out why the mixed reviews. The actual physical apartments are nice. Floors nice. Service is typical of apartments being rented by companies buying apartments and renting them to tourists—so not good. Our apartment on Neuen Garten was fine. Very nice floors. Kitchen well equipped. Sharp knives and unscratched pans. But there is a sign saying don’t make a mess of the kitchen for the next guest. Which begs the question, who cleans when it is kind of messy but not that messy?—no one. The WiFi is bad. 100ms ping with little download bandwidth and no upload bandwidth. Unusable except for email. The rooms are not hotel clean. They are apartment clean like if you left your home unused for a couple weeks. So dusty and smells like you would expect. They have zero artificial ventilation

We really enjoyed staying in this spacious apartment that was perfect for our large group. The separate bedrooms provided privacy, and the well-equipped kitchen and living room made group meals a breeze. The apartment’s convenient location allows it to easily access restaurants, bars, and supermarkets within walking distance. Overall, great stay!

AVOID!! Rude as hell. We stood outside waiting with our suitcases in 30C and when they eventually arrived after keeping us waiting 45 mins they looked at us rudely as if we were an annoyance without apologizing and barked at us what we are doing there, that is the level they are operating at 😐We had booked months in advance and provided our arrivaltime. Freakishly weird behaviour towards customers who keep you employed. Rooms sucked and 2 of us had to go get a hotel as it was not possible for us all to squeeze into the room that was falsely advertised for 4. Bathroom access was through the bedroom and the fridge was broken. No AC whatsoever and no fan provided. Horrible experience.

Nice hotel with comfy apartments which really feel like a normal apartment and not a hotel. Also nice idea to put the guests names next to the door, so it really looks and feels like an apartment. Also the service at the reception was very friendly and the location is great. What I didn't like was the extremely complicated light switches in all rooms. We couldn't figure out how they work correctly till the end. Also I prefer to have shampoo and shower gel provided by the hotel, which won't be provided here. The two extra beds which we had were also kind of too hard. I wanted to give 4 Stars but the very positive experience with the reception lady needs to be honored after we had some problems with the invoice and she was also nice enough to take a picture of our group. So room for improvement but a nice stay. :)
