Great apartment in a characterful old building. The neighbourhood was peaceful, leafy and chilled with lots of restaurants nearby. Transport links are great-three S Bahn stations within a few minutes walk, bikes for hire on the street- Berlin is perfect for exploring by bike. The apartment was very clean and thoughtfully equipped, including basic food items like butter, milk and coffee, which I really appreciated. Gerhard was a true host, meeting me at Südkreuz station from the airport and showing me round in person. He stayed in touch during my stay with tips for restaurants, visits and bike routes! As I was travelling solo, this was also much appreciated. Thanks!
