I'm afraid there were problems with this rental. The apartment is located on a charming and surprisingly quiet little street along the Spree, convenient to S-bahn and U-bahn, as well as to the Hansaviertel and Moabit areas. It consists of a large sitting room/kitchen, a rather small bedroom, and a bathroom. I would say that it is reasonably priced, given that the furnishings are somewhat old and dowdy, perhaps appropriate to a late-19th century building, one of the few remaining in the Hansaviertel. The host was very responsive in terms of communication, but things became tense when the electrical system began to fail toward the end of my stay. The number provided by the host for his local representative was incorrect, and when the latter and an electrician eventually showed up, they were unable to find the electrical fault, which led the host to imply rather strongly that I was mistaken. Finally, when the hot water failed (because of the electrical fault), I moved to a hotel. Two days later, the host wrote to say that the electrician was able to discover the fault and had commenced repair. He added that he regretted having doubted my veracity, after which he provided a refund of 25% of the cost of the stay, as I had earlier suggested. We agreed that he could not be held responsible for the police raid in the building, which occurred some days earlier. The latter was a bit unnerving, but the police were pleasant and reassuring when I asked if I was in danger. Perhaps my experience was unique, but I must say that I resented the host's attitude when it became clear that he might have to refund some of hte rental fee.
