This is a well-maintained apartment with an excellent location either for accessing Friedrichshain or for travelling into central Berlin by tram. The kitchen is well equipped (though I missed my coffee machine) and the washing machine is a huge bonus. Note that the bed is on the floor in the living room. This was not a problem for me but some people might find a very low bed difficult to get out of. The apartment is accessed by two flights of stairs. The communication from the host was excellent. There is a supermarket just two doors away which has most items you might need. Highly recommended.
