Florian and Elissavets apartment is beautiful in its simplicity and position on Karl Marx Alee. With the U Bahn literally at the front door ( as well as a bakery) it gives easy access to all places in Berlin. There is a health food store around the corner as well as restaurants and cafes and a supermarket five minutes walk away. Alexander Platz is a 5 min U Bahn ride, with heaps of dept stores and markets.The apartment is also situated very close to Berghain and Tresor plus numerous other venues. The balcony is great to sit and have breakfast on and the view is very relaxing. There is some traffic noise but the double glazed windows cut out nearly all of it, at night it is very quiet. I would stay here again as both Elissavet and Florian are very nice people and are responsive in their communications. l stayed for a month and it is an easy place to live for long periods. l definitely would recommend this place .
