I did not have the pleasure of meeting Maria during this stay, but throughout the booking process she was both incredibly helpful and efficient in answering my questions in a timely fashion. She gave my friend and I excellent advice as to how to get from the airport to her apartment and she even had her friends help direct us upon arrival. Her room was clean and comfortable, the wifi worked wonderfully and her housemates were exceptionally kind, giving us advice when we needed it and making sure we had everything we needed. Near the apartment there is a grocery store which is great! And the central location made it easy to get to Museum Island and some of the other great attractions in Berlin. Overall, I had a wonderful stay!
