The loft (modern yet homely) is located in my favorite Berlin neighborhood; Prenzlauerberg. The loft itself is spacy but most importantly it is located in hip and happening former east Berlin. with an abundance of restaurants and clubs. The metro (U-bahn or S-bahn) will take you to other fab hotspots; I like Hackische Markt (oranienburgerstrasse) and Gendarmenmarkt..but thats very personal. The bakery (2 minute walk) opens before 8 am and two supermarkets are nearby (4 mins). Bert is a great host; welcoming us personally and offering all basics at the house (nespresso machine, cups and a variety of teas). Highly recommended!
