The flat was clean and the beds were very comfortable. The balcony, though basic, was a very peaceful spot to eat a meal after a day's roaming in Berlin. The local shops were excellent. We had a good breakfast at Cafe Schade on Tegler Strasse. We also enjoyed the falafel at Bei Mama Libanesische on Triftstraße. Leopoldplatz U-bahn is very handy for the flat and the 247 bus takes you to Gesunndbrunnen - so it's a great location from which to explore the city. The kitchen is small but servicable and well-appointed. All in all, a great place to stay and our base for a refreshing, stimulating holiday.
