Monika's place is in a wonderful location and was a quick walk to many amenities -- you really could spend your whole vacation in the neighbourhood and be close to everything. Also very accessible for transit with a bus stop across the street and a short walk to the train line. Monika was a wonderful host and was very helpful with suggestions and responsive as we touched base from check in through to departure.
As it notes in the description, the apartment is located in an area that has a number of restaurants with patios -- all of which are great to enjoy, as we did -- that have patrons outside until late during the weekends. Windows closed help to keep the noise out, though at times there was some loud music from the cafe below. Monika was very helpful in following up with the cafe owners to address this and from there we had no noise issues for the rest of our stay.
The location is prime for access to too many restaurants and cafes to count, and is directly across the street from a public park that has great amenities for kids and is also a lively public space in the evenings, while hosting a farmers market (saturday) and antique market (sunday) on the weekends.
Overall, we loved the neighbourhood and would highly recommend a stay at Monika's to anyone looking to visit Berlin while feeling like they are living in a neighbourhood full of life, shops, and friendly faces.
