We really enjoyed our stay in Berlin, and it was mostly to do with the location of Uta's place!!! the area seems super safe during the day or night and it is great for food markets, bars and restaurants that are affordable, welcoming and trendy; and they were mostly all 5-10mins away walking. on nights out we managed to to to various spots and still only be a maximum 15 mins away from home! only reservations were that the kitchen was lacking usable pots and pans (although we barely found ourselves needing to use it with all the lovely restaurants nearby!!!) and the sofa bed was crushed and dented, so much so that it was only usable if you sleep sideways across it. the bed is super comfy though! and the atmosphere in the place is top notch, it really does desevre 5 stars. thanks Uta!
