Hans’ place is a bit of calm in an otherwise chaotic traveler’s adventure. It’s in a lovely, quiet and family-friendly neighborhood that’s a leisurely 5-8 minutes away from the Berlin Wall Memorial and, in the other direction, a leisurely 10-15 minutes to good dining and shops. It is also about 5 minutes away from a station that will take you pretty much anywhere you’d like to go in Berlin (including the train station).
The apartment is comfortable welcoming, stylish and well equipped. Ute (Hans’ wife) and Ilinor (the lovely woman who got us situated) were beyond helpful and accommodating. Great place to stay.
