Carmen's guest house is truly a secret garden in the bustling city of Berlin! I visited during June and her garden was thriving with different flowers and herbs which was a beautiful juxtaposition to the urban life of Berlin.
The apartments location is very walkable and close to public transportation. She also has free wifi so if you prefer to Uber you can easily request one. I felt quite safe walking in late at night and found the area to have great restaurants and bars. Our first night we caught a great free show around 3 blocks from the place!
The apartment itself was very spacious with a great comfortable bed and great places to sit and take in the morning light. A writer could easily get lost and just sitting here composing stories all day if they should care to.
The decor was quite charming and gave the apartment a very cinematic feel. She knows how to make you feel welcome and comfortable.
The entry way also provided suggestions and maps of things to do if you didn't plan so well.
I arrived very late on my first night and Carmen was beyond accommodating, which was so helpful since I had sparse internet access while I was traveling.
I would highly recommend Carmens Magic garden if you chose to stay in a truly unique environment while in Berlin!
