Our flight was late, we arrived at 1 AM local time, our host was very welcoming and helpful. The location of the apartment is wonderful, right next to the S Bahn station "Hackescher Markt" which brought us from Berlin Schonefeld airport S Bahn station. The neighborhood is wonderful, we ate at a different outdoor restaurant each night and enjoyed the soccer games on the restaurant TV's.

The elevator to the 6th floor apartment is commercial grade, not a flimsy household type. The apartment is spacious and open, the skylights in the bathroom and middle room were great. We enjoyed the balcony every day and the big windows in the bedrooms made a wonderful cross ventilation breeze at night. The bathroom is modern and clean white.

The apartment is honestly presented in the photos shown on Air B&B and the furniture shown is there. We loved the big wooden table, that became our gathering spot.

There are 2 grocery stores nearby, 2 bakeries, 10 restaurants, 3 trolley car lines, the U Bahn and the S Bahn. We did not have a rental car and did not want one, parking would be hard. Taxis and busses are plentiful.

Overall the apartment was wonderful, the 3 of us (2 grandparents and a 12 year old) enjoyed our stay and would stay there again.
