My family and I spent one month in Laura & Moritz's elegant and serene home. In the midst of winter, their apartment was a warm, quiet, comfortable shelter; we were always happy to step into the door, pull off our shoes and relax after adventures in the incredible city of Berlin.
Just outside the door is the #2 tram, a quick ride to Alexander Platz and beyond--though we found it hard to leave our own nearby streets! Lonely Planet describes the neighborhood well: " Splendidly well-groomed Prenzlauer Berg is one of Berlin's most charismatic residential neighbourhoods, filled with cafes, historic buildings and indie boutiques. It's a joy to explore on foot." We lingered for hours over breakfast & a book at Bar Gargarin, savored serious coffee at God Shot, and got lovely massages around the corner at Ruhepool.
As to the apartment itself, there was ample space for all of us (two adults & a college age child) and we spent a great deal of time working "at home", which was quiet night and day, thanks to kind neighbors, the off street location & the buffer of an old church next door. The space is beautifully decorated in whites and neutral colors; Laura and Moritz left it uncluttered yet well equipped with everything we needed for the entire month.
From our first inquiry to follow-ups after our departure, communication with Laura was friendly, speedy and complete. We will always remember our heavenly month in their home!
