As it was my first time in Berlin, I was a little weary of the area when we first got of the train. But it turned out to be a good location, lots of bars in the area. Shopping centre very close and great public transport to head to central Berlin or Prenzlauer burg for dinner. The apartment was perfect for the three of us. Very clean and comfortable, really nice apartment... loved the fairy lights. Perfectly set up for an enjoyable stay. Thanks Eric and Gini!
