Great location directly across from an S-bahn stop. We had no issues getting wherever in Berlin we wanted to go. The upstairs neighbors can be a little loud (especially the school kids running down the stairs at 7am). Not ideal if you need 3 separate, private bedrooms as one 'bedroom' is really just a hallway with a bed in it; others must pass through to get to the one bathroom and bedroom in the back of the unit. Overall, a very faint smell of cigarettes permeated the whole apartment; it wasn't overpowering, but definitely noticeable. Only has a mini fridge (in the hallway bedroom), no full-sized fridge.
