We had a really great but short trip in Berlin and enjoyed every moment of it. Karsten was a fantastic host, the apartment was clean and provided us with many toiletries and tea/coffee etc. We were only about 15 mins on the subway to the city centre which was ideal however make sure you bring exact change for subway tickets as the machines often don't give change. The best part of the trip was the street food Thursday market that Karsten told us about which was an indoor market showcasing food from all over the world as well as a variety of alcohol. We would recommend this to everyone as well as a nice little bar called Melody and Nelson. We also ate dinner at a Thai place called Sisaket which was absolutely fantastic! The only criticism we had was that Karsten was unable to speak to us for any length of time when we first met him due to being with his young daughter. Yet he made up for this later that evening as he popped by the apartment and give us lots of helpful tips about the area and places we should visit. All in all we had a wonderful time and would definitely recommend/return here! Amina and Corey
