Stephan and Rene were super quick in responding to my requests and arranging my stay at short notice. Communication was swift, professional and precise, and I was met in person by Stephan would was also able to arrange an early check-in. A great start.
The apartment is located in Friedrichshain, 2 minutes from U+S Frankfurter Allee, providing access all over the city. The area has an eclectic mix of restaurants and bars (check out Allepo Supper Club and Salami Social Club), plus several supermarkets, ships and fast food. Everything you could want in Berlin is on your doorstep. Perfect location.
The apartment building is new, with Stephan and Rene's apartment located on the ground floor with a terrace in the courtyard. The apartment is built to a high spec, the windows are like 4 cm thick and have shutters, so sound and light can easily be blocked out. Outstanding.
The bed was perhaps one of the most comfortable I have ever slept in, which meant I slept much more than I had planned a couple of days! Whilst the apartment is quite small, it is really well designed and is a nice space to be in. Bedroom was nice, kitchen fully equipped. I could live there.
Every detail has been well thought out, and you can tell the hosts have put a lot of thought, effort and time into making their apartment the perfect base for exploring the eastern side of Berlin. The hosts combined a profeseional service and with personal touches, and got the balance just right. Perfect.
I loved staying in Stephan and Rene's apartment and would stay there again if I had the chance. If it's available for your dates and you want to be in Friedrichshain, then I suggest you book it!
