Nice little studio apartment in Ditzingen.
It was a really cool place with a great price. It was my first time in Ditzingen and late at night. The door is is on the right side of the subway building with a code to get in. The worker at subway spoke English and walked me to the door. Its an apartment style hotel without a front desk so I appreciated that the owners emailed details to enter without having to make the extra step to contact them first. The email was in German but i just used the translate function on my phone to read it. There is free parking on the main road in front of the hotel. A few times circling and I was able to get a spot every day no problem. If thats not your style you can always park on the other side of the railway for a fee.
The twin size bed was perfect for a single traveler. The water was hot and clean towels were provided along with soap and shampoo. Ive learned through experience that European hotels dont use wash closhs so I bring my own. I had some trouble with the tv, likely due to a language barrier but after some patience I figured out how to just watch youtube.
The train is super convenient. I was quickly able to travel to Stuttgart to visit the Christmas Village without worrying about taking my rental car. Small cars in Europe really make parking convenient but no need to drive when i coud hop on the train for a few Euros.
Theres a cute little low key bar downstairs next to the entrance with with coffees and adult beverages. It was open at least until midnight(possibly later)
