We were lucky to find this two weeks before our trip when our other reservation had water damage and had to cancel. This was farther out than Mitte, where we had planned to stay. But the location was still good, just meant we had to take the bus and train to get into central Berlin but it was quick. You could tell it was an actual neighborhood - not as touristy, which was nice. I would suggest that instructions for the washing machine would be nice - a German friend helped me out so I got that sorted. Otherwise a great stay.
