It's rare for me to stay in a shared accommodation, but this time I'm happy I did - Thor is both welcoming but also lets you have privacy when you need it. On my first day, he took the time to show me around the house and the neighborhood as well as made sure that the fridge was stocked with things I wanted. I felt at ease at his place and welcomed in the common areas. The neighborhood might have become one of my favorite locations in Berlin :). I recommend staying with Thor.
