Adan’s place has a lot of character. My stay was super relaxed and Adan is lovely. The apartment is spacious and the majority of the facilities (washing machine, heating, wifi etc) work really well. The space in general works very well for long stays - you can feel really comfortable and relaxed around the apartment. Although this also depends on your temperament as it’s not quite as pristine as the pics might appear. However it is a large, very charming, old Berlin place...which comes with a lil bit of mess and grime. If that’s not you and you prefer cleanliness over old high ceilings and rickety features, this perhaps isn’t the place for you. The room itself is spacious and really well facilitated - desk, large fitted closet/wardrobe, newly fitted windows that keep the room warm and quiet etc. It makes for a convenient, pretty homely experience.
When booking I was worried that the address was slightly too far out, but went with it and as described, the links are really good/quick. It’s a 3 min walk or so to Berlin-Litchenberg. Even though the S5, 7 & 75 were down for maintenance during my stay, it wasn’t a problem - the U5 , which serves that area of east Berlin into Alexanderplatz, is really convenient and passes through Frankfurter Allee (station) meaning it was easy to change onto the S/Ringbahn. If you’re up for a 40 min walk, then the centre of Friedrichshain is also doable on foot. Otherwise it’s a quick train/bus ride away.
In general, really enjoyed my stay at Adan’s. Easy-going, convenient and a nice homely apartment, that’s charming and well facilitated.
