Paul did a great job of accommodating our stay on very short notice. His apartment is ideally located very close to downtown Berlin but in a place where parking is still practical and doesn't require a green sticker showing compliance with some German emissions requirement I didn't quite understand (which we were not aware of until right before we came to Berlin), unlike many hotels and other places downtown.

The apartment is comfortable and functional. Plenty of space for our family of six. Short stair climb to the second floor, fast internet, comfortable beds, clean and tidy, safe neighborhood close to restaurants, grocery stores, ATMs etc. Highly recommended.
