This was only our second air bnb experience and it has definitely sold us on it as a way of finding great places to stay without costing the earth. The artist's apartment was absolutely lovely, in a fantastic location close to the tram, train, food, markets and a number of sites in east Berlin which were all easy to get to by foot. Being 2 floors up was much better than the 3 or 4 flights of stairs we have had to deal with since and Hans-Peter very kindly helped us with our luggage. Communication with both Tina and HP was excellent despite us not having a phone. The compendium that Tina provides guests is excellent and the wi fi can be used to Google anything else you might need, like a laundromat to dry your clothes, which we found was just down the road. As a family of 4 who hadn't done any washing for a week it was great to be able to do some washing and then take it to get it dried all at once! There is so much cheap and yummy food nearby that we hardly needed to cook but there is everything in the flat that you would need if you did. Thanks Tina and HP, we loved Berlin and would definitely stay here again, but maybe at a different time of year when the sun doesn't come up at 5am!
