Staying at Rita's while in Berlin was one of the best choices I made. The description is very accurate - it's a small room, with a bed and a desk, shared bathroom, and WiFi. And it was just what I needed. With all the sightseeing to do, I didn't really spend much time at the apartment, except for sleeping and getting ready for the day. When I was there, though, Rita was a great host, very friendly, answered all the questions I had about the area, and a pleasure to be around.

If you're by yourself, and just need a place to sleep while you explore an amazing city, this is the place for you. It's in a great, relatively central location, with the U-Bahn a 2 minute walk, S-Bahn a 10 minute walk, and Potsdamer Platz about 15. I could not have been happier with the location. Or the place in general. It's not fancy, but it suited my needs perfectly. If I'm back in Berlin by myself anytime soon, I'd stay here again in a heartbeat.
