Monika's apartment is in a great location very near Alexandraplatz where you can get the excellent public transport to anywhere in Berlin. If you are coming to Berlin from abroad get the tourist ticket at you airport for the days of your stay as it covers all types of public transport including getti g from the airport.The apartment was very clean and communications were great. One tip is to read the washing machine instructions in Monica's House manual carefully as it quite a challenge to open :)
