Such a wonderful central spot in old Berlin, apartment block with lots of history. We attended an exhibition at the Berlin Messe, so it was a perfect location in this regard. Barbara’s apartment is lovely, one feels like one is staying in a museum, all tastefully put together in white and gold with lots of crystal chandeliers. Aldi supermarket is right across the road and also great restaurants in close proximity. Barbara’s breakfasts were great too, excellent variety of fruit as well! Barbara was so very kind and helpful, providing a map and assisting us with our luggage that arrived late. Such a lovely person and very easy to talk with, she can speak English very well. So all in all, a super experience and I will definitely be back to stay here and explore Berlin more (such a fascinating city... we only managed to fit in a wonderful walking tour, but unfortunately nothing else).
