The apartment is much bigger then the pictures show, and it's probably impossible to find a more central place to stay with both buses, S-bahn, U-bahn and tram stations 2-5 minutes away. Maria was unable to meet with us, but her friends helped us more than once during our long stay. The only concern we had was the lack of a functional vacuum cleaner (we stayed in the apartment for 40 nights so a vacuum cleaner was essential) and some basic kitchen tools. Apart from that we had a most wonderful stay in the apartment and are looking forward to returning to Berlin soon!
