Phew we have a bed for the night, we’ve arrived the the Hotel Cleve and our room is on the first floor overlooking the semi-circular entrance way.
duh.. This always surprises me… Why do so many German hotels have only single beds in them?
Don’t they think a couple might actually want a double bed??? We immediately took the little cupboard away from the middle and pushed them together LOL …
For anyone who hasn’t been to Germany before… the single douvet for each person is a feature of even the double beds… and it’s always traditionally folded like this too.
At home in The Netherlands Himself and I share one large douvet and there is always the perennial problem of ”He’s too hot and I’m freezing” and if I heap an extra blanket onto my side of the bed, then the extra weight of it often drags the douvet slowly floor-wards on my side of the bed as the night progresses resulting in a less than happy Himself.
We visit friends in Germany semi-regularly and sleep under separate douvet’s (in a double bed) at their place too, and every time we’ve had a great night’s sleep, Summer or Winter, not too hot, not too cold.

The fact the one person can have a thicker weight one and the other a thinner weight one really appeals, and Himself agrees, so one day, on a future trip to Germany, we aim to be picking up some German douvet sets and our large Dutch douvets can go down to the guest room linen cupboard at home.
I took a photo of the bathroom simply because I’m usually going Ga Ga over tableware, and Himself is used to that, I could usually care less about plumbing……but these taps…. had me quite out of charactor…. ooooh I want them !!!! Himself was shaking his head…
