We stayed recently for a girls sightseeing holiday and have to say we were impressed both with the apartment and with Berlin itself.

We were met and even given a walk around the block to show us where all the local shops and pubs were for whatever we may need. A very warm welcome indeed.

The beds were comfortable and the whole apartment was very clean.

The Irish pub down the road is a perfect way to end the day and the staff in there were very friendly. We even managed to catch some Irish dancing one night.

The transport links could not have been better and the subway station is literally over the road. We found it easy to navigate our way to such sights as the Berlin Wall and the Brandenburg gate. In particular the East Side Gallery is a must visit but wear your comfortable walking shoes!!

On the whole, a very enjoyable stay and Berlin is stacked with history and is the perfect place for anyone who likes tons of culture. Next time, we will be leaving the mother at home and sampling the nightlife which I hear is second to none.
