Clean, spacious, quiet apartment with good views. It was great to have a clothes washer and terrific to also have a drying rack for clothes. Kitchen was well appointed and fine for short stays. The location was a little further out than we had thought in terms of walking to some sights (e.g. Brandenburg Gate, Holocaust memorial), but super close to the train. The benefit of being a bit further was that we could also walk to other areas easily (e.g. Neukolln) which has great restaurants. Check in and check out was easy. Communication with Sven was great--he was responsive and proactive and his friend Laura who checked us in was very friendly and responsive as well.
