Katharina was an attentive, friendly and helpful host. Check in was easy. The location and size were as described and exactly what we needed for our trip to Berlin. The purpose of the trip was mainly to spend time with my daughter and her husband, now living in Berlin. This location suited perfectly, and while it is a little bit of a ride on public transport to get to sightseeing, it was fairly straightforward and not difficult. The neighborhood is quiet residential, but there is a busy street and plenty of grocery shopping about 10 minutes walk from the apartment. It is a cozy basement apartment, well set up and with comfortable beds. The size was perfect for my husband, son and I. The set up of the WC separated from the tub/shower is convenient. Overall, it was just right for us, and we found Katharina to be an excellent host.
