The place is pretty nice, we didn't really meet the host but another woman who seems to be working for some real state agency. The apartment is not like the pictures, but still quite nice. It's in a nice neighborhood with a lot of good restaurants and supermarkets nearby, it's also very convenient to go by U-Bahn or S-Bahn to the city center like Alexander Platz, it's not so far walking there either. The internet didn't work on one morning, but it was quickly resolved after I contacted the host. Overall, I would definitely recommend this place.
