This apartment is generally well kitted out - including a good kitchen, a nice bathroom and even a washing machine, but its most commendable feature is undoubtedly its location. I love this part of Kreuzberg with its indoor market, the multitude of coffee shops and the big stretches of green space nearby. We walked a lot and saw a lot and in the late Berlin summer overall we had a really nice week. The apartment technically has everything you need and it is also unlikely that you will spend a lot of time in it given everything that Berlin has to offer. Having said that, there are some things that travellers should be aware of. The apartment is in the “Souterrain” so there isn’t that much natural light. We had pretty good, hot weather, so it worked for us to be out of the sun occasionally, but it might be different if you’re there in winter. The mattress on the bed is extremely hard and gave me backache and one of the pillows should definitely be replaced as it was very lumpy (IKEA is your friend). The apartment was mostly clean, the bathroom in particular, but the floors in the main room clearly had not been swept or hoovered as well as they should have. We found clumps of long hair and other minor debris there. And although the bathroom was lovely, there was a small leak under the sink when we were there that needs addressing. The area is generally residential, but because the front of the apartment faces the street at street level, it can get quite noisy there at night as Berlin’s nigh-time revellers make their way home. The bathroom backs onto the big shared enclosed yard that most Berlin tenements have, and in our case we were unlucky enough that a “Hoffest” (yard party) was held there on the Saturday night. So we didn’t get much sleep that night. Would we stay there again? Yes, undoubtedly. It was a lovely flat in a wonderful location. But a few added touches here and there would make it even better.
