Marc was a great host. Helpful and informative in advance. Answering all my questions. Super great about addressing wheelchair accessibility questions on both the flat and the local neighbourhood. He was also flexible around changing our checkout time and generally nice to engage with. He was great about meeting us from the airport despite the flight being delayed, and gave us a good introduction to all the important things we needed to know when we arrived.

As to the apartment, well it was smart, clean, easy to use and well kitted out. It’s an apartment that’s obviously used mainly for rentals, but I only mean that it doesn’t have other people’s things lying around so actually it meant that it was really comfortable to be there. The beds were really comfortable. The kitchen is well fitted out, with a dishwasher, and it all worked really well.

The neighbourhood is smart, but with interesting local restaurants all within a short distance. And although it says eight minutes to Prenzlauer Allee station, in our experience you got there in five or six.

We stayed there three nights as a group of 6 of us, and it was plenty of space for us and made for a really great trip to Berlin.
