First of all Baharbin is an outstanding/ excellent host. He was responsive to all our questions and even ordered a crib when we asked for one. I met him in person when he came to install the crib and really enjoyed chatting about Berlin and travel. This place is also in a perfect location that’s close to great restaurants and landmarks. It is also beautifully furnished with a comfortable bed downstairs.
However, I think it’s too expensive for the value. The owners should make it clear that the lower level is basically in a basement. We found it depressing not to have any windows in the kitchen and bathroom. We also found the loft bed extremely uncomfortable to sleep in as you could hear every step/ noise from the top floor. We landed up sleeping on the couch instead. Also, when using the ladder to climb upstairs it feels like one could fall off in the process. Also, please note that their check in time is 4:00pm which was quite inconvenient for us as we arrived at 1:00pm with luggage and exhausted from travel. Baharbin was kind enough to ask us to check- in at 3:00pm instead and also gave us a link to a place where we could store our luggage. I found this super helpful!
