We really enjoyed our time spent in Anja's apartment.
We never actually met Anja but the check-in and out process was very easy. She replied within the hour to any questions we had. We were even able to set up the post box through Anja which meant we could begin to set up working in Berlin.
The apartment was spotless when we arrived and had all of the cleaning and cooking utensils we could have needed. The toaster was broken, which we was noted in a review from the year before our stay, but we just used the grill instead.
The apartment itself is just as big as it appears in the photos, the ceilings are very high which makes it feel even bigger! All of the furniture is comfortable, the bed is very big too!
The wifi is fast and we never had any issues with electricity or hot water.
The apartment can get quite hot during the summer so buying a cheap rotating fan was the only option to keep cool during the heat waves. We left one in the apartment so there may be one waiting there for the next guests!
The location of the apartment was the best thing about it. It is only a ten minute walk to Kottbusser Tor and another ten minutes in other directions to Hermannplatz and Gorlitzer Park . It is surrounded by great restaurants and bars, especially Mandy's bar next door! The area itself is very safe and feels a lot more residential than the busier parts of Berlin. There is a Penny, Lidl and Aldi all within a 10 minute walk from the apartment too.
There was no construction work going on while we were there either like it is said in the description of the property so we weren't disturbed by any noise.
Overall we couldn't recommend the apartment enough!
