It's a beautiful apartment with plenty of space and everything you need in regards to kitchensupplies, furniture, etc. The family is friendly and they have a cute little puppy :). Communication is in German, my German is not so good (yet ;)), but we made it work. Communication was a little bit formal compared to what I'm used to, for example I made a bit of mess and they went through airbnb client service to ask me to clean it up, which scared me a little bit. But I think it was well intended and might have been because of the language barrier or cultural differences. Overal it was a great experience and I would definetly recommend this beautiful flat. It's a bit far if you plan on being in the city center of Berlin a lot, but I think the beautiful forrest near this flat is definetly worth it.
