Uwe's apartment is brand new, extremely clean, and quite comfortable. His communications were prompt and welcoming. It's in a nice quiet neighborhood, with half a dozen restaurants and a supermarket nearby. Just a couple of notes on our generally good experience there. I've given the location five stars, but that was because it was ideal for our needs (proximity to my son's college) but for others might be a little far from the center. However, the local transportation is pretty good, with a short walk to both bus and tram and direct connections to either of two U-Bahn lines. For those coming by car, there is easy parking on the street. My only criticism is that the household supplies are very meager--basically just salt and pepper and dishwashing detergent (though we appreciated the complimentary beers in the refrigerator). In other words, if you want to stay any length of time and plan to do your own cooking, you'll have to buy everything you need.
