My husband and I really enjoyed our stay at Andre's place. It is downstairs in his home, but you have your own entrance and plenty of privacy. It was very clean, the bed was comfortable ,and the rain shower was wonderful, as was the sauna! Andre was always quick to respond to any questions before and during our stay, and greeted us in person to orient us to the apartment. It is a short 10 minute walk to the nearest U bahn station, so very easy to get into the city. There is also a park and a beautiful old wooded cemetery just a few minutes walk away which I enjoyed for my morning run! Thanks Andre for your hospitality; if we return to Berlin again, we would definitely return!
