The apartment is in a very lively neighbourhood, with lots of cafes and bars, plus it is very easy to get to many Berlin attractions in about 30 min. by public transport. We liked the room a lot, but it is just a student's apartment. So I guess it is a matter of choice if someone can feel cosy there or needs more. It was clean enough, there was always warm water and the room was heated well. We found the apartment easy. It's 5 min walk from the stop of bus number 171, but Julia will definitely tell you anything you need! I would stay there again!
