The apartment was in Belin-Mitte, central to major cultural venues in the city. It was neat, clean, and as described, a studio apartment with a main room for bed, sofa, a couple of chairs, television, and many windows onto a courtyard. The adjoining kitchen was quite adequately equipped for one or two persons. The bathroom was neat and clean; what more could one ask. Transit access to subway (U-Bahn; Weinmeisterstrasse) was a few steps away, and a few blocks away was Alexanderplatz. It was a great place to stay for a few days in a world-class city.
