We had a great time in Ivos’ apartment. It’s on old DDR style block, so is a little small but you’ll only be sleeping in the apartment - get out into the buzz of Berlin. We visited with our 10 year old daughter and there was ample room for the three of us.
Ivos provided updates ahead of arrival, including some handy tourist hints (like prebooking a visit to the Reichstag Dome ahead of time - we would have missed out if we did t n is this). The easy communication continued during our stay and departure. He also met spent extended time with us on Check-in explaining the city, tourist options and cafe recommendations.
The apartment itself has everything you’ll need for a short visit, and is located about 20 mins walk from Alexanderplatz, with a large mall about half way there. The U+S-Bahn stations are 1 min from the apartment and very convenient for getting around a bit further.
Berlin is a beautiful city with a tragic history. We enjoyed our time discovering it for a few days from Ivos’ apartment. Highly recommended.
