But if you need to be flexible, appreciate quality, and have no time for compromises – then it's perfect for you." FOR THOSE WHO SEEK QUALITY, NOT COMPROMISES New city. New job. New chapter. You don't need just any apartment – you need a genuine premium home where you can start living from day one – with designer furniture instead of IKEA, with professional cleaning every 14 days instead of weekend chores, with everything you need already in place. You want to arrive and simply live. That's exactly what this apartment is for. DOES THIS SOUND LIKE YOU? You're coming to Bamberg for 6 to 18 months: As an international professional for a project at Bosch, Brose, or another company As a consultant, interim manager, or professional on assignment As an academic or visiting professor at the University of Bamberg In a transitional situation (divorce, house construction, career change) Or you simply want to stay flexible without long-term commitments You don't want to live in an anonymous hotel. But you have neither the time nor the desire to furnish an empty apartment only to dissolve everything again in a year. You want to arrive, turn the key – and live. WELCOME TO YOUR FIRST-OCCUPANCY HOME IN THE CARMELITE MONASTERY Imagine: You open the door to a 61 m2 apartment that has just been completed after extensive renovation.
