I can highly recommend Florian and Elissavet's place. I spent almost five months there while studying at NYU-Berlin. The apartment is centrally located with a bakery by the front door and the subway only steps away. This is a historical building, with large windows and great natural lighting, people living there were very friendly and quite. There were two large desks at the apartment, which is ideal for someone who needs a lot of space to work. Great views from the 6th floor. The place was extremely clean, tastefully furnished with everything that I needed to do my work. There were plenty of linens and cleaning supplies provided for the entire time I was there. The communication was superb and the hosts were very prompt in answering all my questions before I arrive. They also met me at the place when I arrive and showed me around, especially the trash area outside, which is hard to guess. I would definitely rent this place again.
