Robert and Nana's place could not be located any better. Right where Kreuzberg and Friedrichshain meet, it's not only close to the Spree river and the East Side Gallery monument, but also to restaurants, bars and popular clubs like Watergate, Chalet or Club der Visionäre. Plus, it’s just a walking distance away from two train stations, Schlesisches Tor and Warschauer Straße, which was really convenient. Just as described, the apartment itself is noticeably old, with the kind of rugged charm that - to me anyway - makes much of the city's appeal.
As for the room, it was cosy and spacious, with a comfy bed and a sofa to chill out on. I didn’t get to use the latter, as I was out most of the day and only came in to sleep and shower. That’s also why I did not get to spend much time with Rob and Nana, who, judging by the brief interactions we had, seemed to be really nice people. They arranged both check-in and check-out to suit my schedule, and were generally super easy to get along with. To cut a long story short, I enjoyed my stay and would definitely come back.
