I quickly planned a trip to Berlin, and I saw this listing come up which was a great sign. The last time I was in Berlin was October 2017, and this place was also where I stayed; check my positive review from that time.
Fast forward four years later. I was running a little late beyond my expected arrival time in the evening, but we kept contact by SMS/text message. When I arrived, they were waiting and met me at the front door. I got the keys, a quick inspection of the place, and some information; and it was like "coming back home again." Only one block from a busy street, the area is in fact quiet, with apartment space more than enough for one person.
Like last time, the apartment was just as expected: warm, comfortable, and convenient. The place is fully stocked: kitchen/eating space with cutlery, pots and pans, microwave, coffee maker, electric kettle, refrigerator, induction stove, kitchen table, chairs; the living/sleeping space with couch, work desk, bed, bedding, blankets; and the bathroom with shower stall, toilet, washbasin, plenty of towels, and a clothes washer machine. There's lots of storage space and plenty of electrical plugs throughout the apartment.
For grocery shopping, both Edeka and REWE are within ten minutes on foot. Last time, I was all Edeka; this time I was all REWE. Also close by and next to one of the street entrances to the U-Bahn station are a bakery for your fresh bread and pastry needs, and an Imbiss for your beef Döner and vegetarian (Seitan) Döner requirements.
Thanks to the apartment's proximity to an S-Bahn station (a 10-minute walk), I used the Ringbahn or Circle Line a lot on this visit to get around the city. The following day after arrival, I purchased a 7-day pass (AB zones) for 36 Euros, which you can get at a ticket machine at a U-Bahn or S-Bahn station.
My week-long trip went quickly and relatively smoothly. I'd love to return to this apartment once again the next time I'm in the German capital.
