Alexander's place was about a twenty min walk to the city center which was perfect. The loft had a rooftop sitting area where you could see the whole city. He also provides you access to the elevator, which is nice if you have heavy bags. The loft was clean and he happily waited for us as our bus was a half hour late. The loft was nice and warm upon our arrival. There was a small market on the corner and the Naschmarkt was about ten min away. A must stay place any time of the year, we highly recommend.
