Hermann is a host that goes above & beyond most. He is friendly and accessible to help you get settled-in. Any questions he will do his best to answer and he is very fluent in English and other languages.
The location is a very nice & quiet family friendly place with lots of room to find quiet from the bustling city or the rest of your traveling partners. It is a lovely way to experience of normal life in the older historic flats with a newly renovated sense of style. It is also hard to pass-up a place with two bathrooms!
The neighborhood is also quiet. If you head west to the main street Petersburger Strasse, you will find the tram lines close by and a short walk to the U-Bahn stop Franfurter Tor. The neighborhood has interesting things to offer if you are willing to head into the neighborhood to the east and south. There are many hip bars and cafes open in three stops south on the tram or a 15 min walk. Don't let the Bio Market fool you from seeing also the lovely supermarket behind it on Meuhsam Strasse. There is also great bakers in the neighbor hood particularly a couple on the NW corner of the nearby park.
This was a perfect getaway for our busy family with kids for still being able to see the World Cup while relaxing at home.
