Albert sets the bar SO high that other Air BnB experiences pale in comparison. He truly went above and beyond to make us feel like we were home. First Albert arranges his schedule to ensure to meet all guests upon arrival and departure. No other AirBnB host has done that. As other guests also commented he thoughtfully filled the fridge with milk, bread, eggs, and German beer. This was appreciated beyond words--especially since as we had been traveling for 18+ hours before arriving. Albert ensured there were soaps in the bathroom--even shampoo! He had cleaning and laundry products available to us. His unit also has A/C--very much appreciated during those hot summer nights. We've stayed at other Air BnB rentals where the host only leaves one unit dishwashing soap and no hand soap for bathrooms. Albert thought of EVERYTHING to make our 2 week stay comfortable. There was construction on the exterior but it never interfered with our trip. The only interference was our second night was Saturday. Being jet lagged we went to bed by 10PM. The upstairs neighbor was hosting a party that evening which didn't get going until after midnight. It was loud music, loud voices until 3AM or so. Other than that it was peaceful. The location is PERFECT. So close to sight seeing places, grocery store, bus stops, and S- and U- Bahn lines. We even were able to walk to a weekend farmers market. Albert was such a gracious host he invited us to a rooftop view of the city. Simply breathtaking. You could clearly see East and West Berlin. He even made us a little handmade picture/painting of Berlin. Our favorite and most cherished keepsake! Thank you Albert for welcoming us so warmly and making our stay even more delightful. We highly recommend Albert's apartment for your Berlin stay.
