Beate was a great host, she was out of town when we arrived but arranged for her friend to let us in and show us round, her friend was very welcoming and made us feel at home. Beate was really quick to respond to our queries and gave us clear instructions on how to get to her place. She even answered questions when we were there despite being away herself. The flat is great, just like the photos and has everything you need. Love the style of the place, the unusual layout and vintage furniture. Would definitely recommend to friends. The location is great, loads of bars and places to eat nearby and the area has a really cool, laid back feeling. We would certainly stay here again when visiting Berlin.
