David's apartment is in a fantastic location, both just for chilling in one of Berlin's most interesting neighbourhoods (great for 'strolling'), and for hopping onto the tram, the S-Bahn or the U-Bahn to see all that Berlin has to offer.

Every amenity is close to hand, from cafes/bars/restaurants to grocery shops and a major shopping centre.

The flat itself is really characterful and a pleasure to be in and was FANTASTICALLY clean. The arrangement for getting the keys was very straightforward and the little 'orientation' booklet that David has taken the time to prepare would be great for someone new to Berlin.

I had one negative during my stay, which David assured me was completely unusual, and that was a lot of neighbour noise from the flat overhead (in the form of really heavy footsteps, etc., all the time). It's an old building and sound really carries. This wouldn't worry anyone who didn't want or need to spend time in the flat itself.
