Location, location, location: Katarina's apartment is in a fantastic one. It is directly across the street from the Mall of Berlin, which is a block away from the Holocaust Memorial and Potsdamer Platz, and a 5 minute walk to the Brandenburg Gate. I stayed here for 2.5 months with my wife and two kids, and we had great time; would definitely stay here again. You are a block from two U-Bahn stations, there are two supermarkets in the mall (several more if you want to walk another 5 minutes), and within 10 minutes of all the major sights in this part of Berlin. The apartment itself is spacious and very bright. It is minimally furnished (just what you need, no personal effects, which we found to be a plus). There are two good-sized bedrooms, one with a queen-size bed, the other with two twin beds. Bedrooms have dressers and cabinets for your clothes, etc. There is a sun-room and a large living room/dining room (w/ dining table+chairs, two sofas, tv, internet, storage cabinet, coffee table). The living room has a nice view over the mall entryway and downstairs restaurant. Despite this location, it is reasonably quiet. The heating works quite well; there is no AC but we found that good use of the curtains and windows was enough to be comfortable on the few very-warm days of our stay. The kitchen is medium-sized, but has everything you need (modest-sized fridge/freezer, stove top, oven, small dishwasher, utensils, dishes, coffee maker, etc). The bathroom is comfortable, but seems a bit old-styled; it has a small washing machine; the sun-room works well to dry your clothes. The building itself is a bit old and the entryways/hallways are not much to look at. There is an elevator. The apartment unit itself is overall in good shape; it is primarily managed by a rental company two blocks away, and they are easy to interact with and helpful. You will have a great time here; I can't imagine a better location to stay in Berlin.
