What a wonderful stay! After arriving and Antje showing me around, I was kindly able to go shopping for basics with her husband Bernd in their car. What a treat! Bernd gave me a lowdown on the area and we had a great chat. Antje and Bernd were very accommodating and hospitable, and I felt very welcomed and comfortable.
The area is wonderfully well-situated and close to the S-Bahnhof Mexikoplatz (with a superb artisanal market on Saturdays), and the apartment is a true gem with high ceilings, big rooms and excellent amenities.
The lounge has some incredibly comfy furniture (and some stylish décor elements) and the kitchen has a fabulous dining area. The attention to detail everywhere, and the small welcoming touches (fresh vase of daffodils, freshly washed shower curtain) make all the difference.
Despite being on a busy road, the rooms are incredibly quiet and the bed is very comfortable - I slept like a stone! All in all it really was like a home away from home. I will definitely be back again.
