Can not say enough great things about Bei Otto. The neighborhood (Friedrichshain) is young and hip with lots of amazing restaurants and bars within a short walking distance. Linda is extremely responsive and very kind; she answered my numerous questions before our arrival and was available for other questions that came up while we were in Berlin. She has listed out in an information packet lots of amazing recommendations for great places to eat and things to do (try the "German comfort food" restaurant right around the corner from the apartment - it will not disappoint!!). Further, Bei Otto is beautifully designed. My friend slept in the bed upstairs and I slept on the couch downstairs and both beds were very comfortable. The bathroom is great - best shower in an AirBnB to date! I was a bit worried about the front of the apartment being directly on the street front, but there are thick curtains that you can close for privacy during the day and roller shades that make the place very safe and very dark at night (I am light sensitive when I sleep, so this was a great perk). The street itself is very quiet so don't worry about any noise. Highly recommend this place - will be asking to stay again when I return to Berlin!
