Leo’s apartment in Berlin is a gorgeous, light filled space. Check in was easy: Leo’s kind associate Lisa met us at the designated time, gave us a tour of the apartment and conveniently provided us with two sets of keys.
The apartment is equipped with all the mod cons and comforts a traveler could want. We found the apartment sparkling clean with amenities like coffee for the coffee maker, dish soap, paper towels and a number of condiments and spices in the kitchen. There was even a dishwasher! The bathroom came with hand soap and plenty of toilet paper. The towels and linens were nice and plentiful. There’s a washing machine and an easy to use drying rack you can set up on the balcony. The bed was super comfortable and there was ample storage room for our clothing and suitcases. The living space was an elegant and relaxing place to spend time, with books and a TV to boot. The balcony was a great place to hang out on nice days. Did I already mention how clean the apartment was?
The neighborhood is vibrant, hip and full of people enjoying life on the canal. There’s a great bakery downstairs from Leo’s place, and many great little shops and restaurants in the area. Transportation is close by and easy to use. Leo provided many good tips and maps and books to help acquaint us with the area. This was a perfect 10 of an Airbnb experience, and we hope to have the opportunity to visit Berlin and stay at Leo’s place again.
