Mike's apartment truly exceeded our expectations. We found the apartment to be even larger in person than in the pictures. The spaciousness only made the place even more comfortable. Double windows that can open to let the breeze flow through the apartment, block out the noise from the street. You have all the comforts of a modern kitchen which allows for making your own meals and having a romantic dinner on the balcony. A washing machine makes it convenient to wash your clothes.
The queen-sized bed was comfortable enough for two tall adults which is rare in Europe, as most have double beds that cannot accommodate tall persons. The bathroom was large and airy, but the shower curtain was a bit challenging at times for taking a shower as it did not remain in place, thus, causing water to spray outwards. Plenty of hangers and closet space are provided. Lighting the candelabras at night while lowering the lights makes the apartment very romantic illuminating the art work and tableaux throughout the salons. The neighborhood is quaint and tranquil and Mike provides information on wonderful restaurants nearby that are popular with locals. Don't miss the Weisenstein German restaurant on nearby Viktoria Luise Platz. Excellent choice for flavorful German cuisine. The location is superb giving you access to the rest of the city via Wittenberg Platz station. Lots of shopping is also close by starting with the famed Ka De We Department Store.
I would truly recommend this apartment. It'll make you fall in love with Berlin and German everyday life.
