The apartment is in new condition -- very clean and modern -- but also has the charm of being situated on the grounds of an old brewery. Big, bright windows and a table and chairs outside in the garden to have your morning coffee.

Perfect for the active traveler - no couch, but chairs and table and a very nice kitchenette with basic supplies. The Berlin transit system makes getting around the city very easy and of course with a bike, even easier. Ekhart lives next door, so if there were any issues, we could call him (but there was no need).

For US travelers not accustomed to European showers, please note the shower head is located by the tub faucet, so you will need to hold it if you want a standing shower.
