We stayed with Maria and her lovely roommate for three nights when we visited Berlin. The organisation of our stay and the Airbnb transaction was so simple as Maria was very quick to reply to any emails/questions that we had.
A few days before our trip we received an email from Maria confirming where we were to collect the keys, wifi password etc. We landed into Schonefeld and it took us just over an hour from plane to door. Once we got to the flat, Maria's flat mate let us in and gave us a tour of their lovely apartment. They were incredibly accommodating and offered us the use of the kitchen and we were allowed to come and go as we pleased.
Our room was large, bright and very comfortable. The location of the flat was perfect, right in the heart of Kreuzberg- round the corner from supermarkets, bars and restaurants and a 5 min walk from the nearest U-Bahn.
We crossed paths with Maria and her housemate a few times during our stay and they were both very friendly and helpful with recommendations. They also both gave us their mobile numbers and said to contact them if we had any questions.
Overall it was amazing value for money and a much more pleasant experience than staying in a hostel. The flat was in an ideal location and we felt very welcome, safe and secure at all times. Thank you Maria and Rian, we would love to come back next time! x
