The check-in process was relatively smooth although I didn't notice the fact that there's no lift and the flat is in 4th floor, so in case you're carrying heavier luggage, you may sweat a bit.

Kitchen is not officially available to you (as per the listing) and I reckon Amad knows why he doesn't advertise it - it was constantly a very messy area.

I'd not say I had "tons of privacy" as mentioned in the listing - with no key from the room and bathroom on the other side of flat.

However, the location is great (very close to bcc and Alexander Platz) and there was nobody waking me up in the night - it is quiet room.
