Kadir's place in Prenzlaur Berg was perfect!! My 19 yr old son and I stayed there for a week and had the greatest time. The neighborhood has so many cafes, restaurants, parks, bars, and Mauerpark is walking distance - don't miss the Sunday flea market! Public transit is a breeze - the S-bahn, U-bahn, and trams are all 5-10 min walking distance away. It's also easy to get a rental bike from this neighborhood and explore Berlin that way. The neighborhood is not touristy at all, and it gives you the feel of real Berlin. The actual apartment was beautiful, comfortable (I'm picky about beds and pillows - and fell asleep soundly!), and it had all the amenities. Kadir provided a little breakfast which was perfect and lasted the first couple of days. I cooked a couple of times in the kitchen - and it had all the basics. There's also a nah&gut grocery/corner store half a block away - super easy. Thanks Kadir! If we're back in Berlin, I'd definitely stay here again.
