Exceptional and welcoming host with great communication. Location allows for wonderful walks in different directions through the Tiergarten to areas of interest. If you enjoy a 30-45 walk in a major park you can very pleasantly get to the Reichstag, the Culture District and the Brandenburg gate and other areas. I always took the public transit back. The S line is a couple minutes away, and that connects you to a variety of trains. Not speaking German it took me a little figuring out, but it was no problem.
