The flat was as described and shown in the pictures - spacious, individually designed, with a lot of light and clean. The area (Neukölln) is great. It is very residential, so you are in the middle where life happens, but at the same time alternative (organic shops, Hipster-style restaurants, organic markets, etc) and pretty international. Being a vegetarian I didn't need to compromise when we went out because there are loads of restaurants, coffee shops, etc that have a vegan menu.
