We loved staying in Leonor's apartment! It was super clean, with lovely furnishings and everything we needed for three weeks working in Berlin. Excellent, comfy beds, well-equipped kitchen, well-lit, with gorgeous contemporary bathroom with bath and shower (and well-lit). Leonor and her two friends were super helpful when we needed a second set of keys and some information. The apartment is very close to great shopping and super transport via the U-9 and the S-1 (ten minute walk gets you to platform for either). On the U-9 you can be to Zoologishche Garden in about 20 minutes; on the S-1 you can be to Friedrichstrasse in 18 minutes. So even though it seems further out from the center of Berlin it's really quite convenient. We found extraordinarily good restaurants and cafes right in the neighborhood. Indian restaurant Avtaar is on a near corner. The shopping opportunities are unparalleled with Schlosstrasse very close. In 20 minutes you can visit the Botanical Gardens, the fascinating memorial at Bayerische platz, and even Marlene Dietrich's grave! (And much more). We love Berlin and know it well, and this was a great place to stay, and from which to explore Schöneberg.
