By far one of the best Airbnb‘s since using this platform, in more than 5 years. Sure, he needs a few upgrades, but Ilia’s new at this.
Definitely ask this amazing man about his ife, work, and gain from his wealth of information.
The room was spacious and inviting; places to sit and work (no desk), but that chair in the corner and the FOLD-Out sofa bed were fantastic work areas. For those of a bit more grounded, sitting on the rug at the smaller table is never frowned upon. Open the huge double windows and warm up a cooler day or freshen up with light breezes.
Plenty of room in the well-stocked kitchen to prepare meals, share a cupa with Ilia, read or gaze out the window. Large clean refrigerator with space for all your cooking needs.
The place is an 11-mins walk to Africanstraße, buttressed by a beautifully sprawling park.
Müllerstraße, from where you’ll emerge from the metro is a Main Street full of eclectic restaurants, an Aldi supermarket where you get great returns on large plastic bottles of water ONLY redeemable at Aldi, and THE bakeries!! My favorite was closest to the far side of Mullerstraße and Schöningstraße (across the street), where all cooked goods and yummy rutabaga salad (beets??) are made by Egyptian owner! Try his couscous stuffed eggplant or his other baked goods!! Of course the pastries are excellent too! But I preferred those from a couple others on that same side of the street but further down.
Great Ghana shop with home cooked chicken that wasn’t nearly as spicy as advertised. Still if you’re looking for hot peppers or more spices, herbs and seasonings check them out. Also long Müllerstraße, just before the Müller Pub where their specialty local beer is very forgettable.
