The host was exceptionally helpful throughout the process. This was the first time that I have used airbnb to book accommodation and she made the process very smooth.
The host made contact early on and was happy to answer my questions. She also made very good suggestions regarding places to eat locally and also places to visit.
The flat exceeded our expectations. It has been furnished with a lot of care, attention and style. We liked the fact that we could eat in the kitchen or the open plan dining/sitting room. The flat was spacious, warm, very clean and well equipped.
The host has helpfully left some small supplies for those who are planning to self cater and recommended a local supermarket, which was very close to the flat. A bottle of wine also awaited us.
The location is fantastic with lots of good local cafes and restaurants, which we thoroughly enjoyed and it is only a short walk to the underground and not too far from the centre of Berlin, with its museums and shops. The area felt safe and the local people were very friendly and happy to help.
We had a great time in Berlin and it was really good to come "home" to the flat each evening. We would definitely recommend staying here.
