Our host: David met us right when we got to the apartment in the afternoon (and we had had to push back the time because our flight was delayed).

The apartment: Was exactly like the photos - compact but ideal for a a vacation rental and everything was new, clean and modern.
One entire wall is windows and even on the rainy day we got there the light coming in made it airy and spacious. Very quiet at night too.

Location: Perfect! On The ederswalder stop U/S Bahn. Took that right into town. And after we'd spent the evening having brews in Freidrichstein we got the S Bahn back to Schonhause Alle which was then only a short walk back to the apartment. Came into Tegel and left from Schonefeld airport and both trips were simple.
