I really enjoyed my stay with Alex, who was the perfect host, doing everything to make my stay relaxed and comfortable. The room was spacious and light yet cosy and being winter, I'm pleased to say very warm. One has full use of the kitchen, which has everything required for cooking and the bathroom and shower were fabulous. Alex pays particular attention to making sure the flat is clean and tidy. For those who like to eat out and party this is a great location and it is only a few minutes walk from the U-bahn (underground) and then a few stops to Alexanderplatz, the heart of East Berlin. Alex is simply a delightful and kind person and I could not recommend more highly choosing his home to stay in if you visit this beautiful city.
