Doerthe's apartment is located in a quiet residential area with lots of restaurants etc. located nearly. It is a really nice area to stroll around. It is about a 20-25 mins walk to Alexanderplatz but there is a tramline located outside the building. The apartment is very well equipped and is located at the rear of a courtyard making it very quiet. Communication with Doerthe was straightforward with immediate responses to any queries we had. I would recommend it!
