The apartment is exactly as advertised. It's a great space with exactly what is needed - plus some unexpected extras such as tea and coffee left in the cupboards which was useful. The host also left some very helpful hints for places to visit, places to eat and drink. The location is perfect - very close to historical sites (just a minute's walk takes you to the site of the Berlin Wall). Also, very close to the UBahn and Metro. Although there have been some comments as to the shower we had no issues at all. I found the bed a bit uncomfortable, but what one person finds comfortable, the other will find uncomfortable. Great stay!
