What a wonderful host! We were so late in arriving, and she didn't let it ruffle her feathers - she was so patient and even spent a few minutes with us chatting after we arrived. The welcome and personal touch was much appreciated. We all loved how much of her personality shown through, in terms of recipes, books, recommendations, etc. We felt so welcome. Neighborhood is quiet, convenient, good recommendation for food from Carolina. We had a great time in Berlin, and highly recommend this lovely gem.
