Though this is a well appointed aesthetically pleasing, and centrally located apt, I would not recommend it to future renters unless hot water issues can be resolved and local support offered during the hosts' absence. Had Philipp and Karina provided me with a local contact with authority to intervene from the outset, the lack of hot water for 9 days could have been resolved earlier and I would have enjoyed my 25-day stay in this agreeable apt. to the maximum. Had the hosts been in Berlin, I also don't doubt that if Philipp and Karina would have found a solution to these problems.
