Prenzlauerberg is one of my favourites spots in Berlin - great restaurants, cafes, shops, parks and just the right amount of buzz without being busy. Staying at Marc's lovely apartment we were able to feel just like locals. It's roomy and homely and has all the amenities you need - functional kitchen, bathroom with washer/dryer, tv and good wifi. Plus, the balcony is a great feature and there's plenty of natural light throughout.

We arrived mid afternoon and were met at the apartment by Marc who had just arrived himself to discover his cleaners hadn't come. So it was a bit of a disappointing start as we had to leave again for a few hours and were unable to shower and relax. However, Marc resolved the issue quickly by staying on to do the clean and set-up himself and refunding a portion of our payment. Other than this hiccup, we loved everything about this place. Marc's communication was clear and he was always accessible. The place was obviously run very professionally. And the space itself had a great feel to it. We would definitely return.
