Parwana is a great hostess. I checked myself in, but she was there within the hour to make sure I was settling in ok. :) The area is nice and seemed more residential than some areas of the city, with cute apartment buildings everywhere you look. Wilmersdorfer Str. is a busy, close by shopping district, and Kaiserdamm is also sprinkled with restaurants and shops. The apartment is nice and cozy. The free wifi works well. One of my favorite parts was the kitchen setup (it's pretty well equipped so you can try out the local markets and take a break from restaurant food and prices.) Maybe best of all was the shower has excellent water pressure and the water gets nice and hot! Excellent for relaxing after a long day!
