Marcus is the perfect host, with the perfect loft-style apartment for 1-2 people. The apartment is located on an utterly charming residential street in Mitte, boasts a beautiful row of windows providing abundant natural light and air, and is steps away from some of Berlin's best choices for coffee, brunch, dinner, gallery-hopping, shopping, or whatever amusement your heart desires. Pick-up and drop-off of the keys could not have been easier, and Marcus was gracious and helpful whenever we needed him -- especially when we found ourselves mystified by the streaming TV! (He even popped out to get batteries for a remote control that had run out of juice.) We had a terrific stay and most certainly will be back.
