Brendon was an excellent host, and immediately responsive to any questions or needs we had during our stay. The recently renovated apartment is located in the idyllic neighborhood of Wilmersdorf. At the end of the block are a number of conveniences (incl. supermarkets, a Bio-Organic market, bakery, gym, etc). And a wide variety of restaurants are accessible within a 10-minute walk. We stayed here while looking for an apartment in the area. Now that our stay is over, we continue to visit this neighborhood frequently. Subway access to the rest of the city is quick. And like many Berliners on the weekend, we found ourselves taking the S-Bahn out to the Grünewald for some hiking, or to Krumme Lanke for swimming--both are easily accessible from this apartment. This was a great point-of-entry for our new life in Berlin.
