It's a great location for a city-break for 2-4 people. We chose the location more or less randomly, as we'd never been to Berlin before, but we landed on our feet. The Warschauer Strasse area is pretty buzzing - with lots of non-chain shops, bars, cafes etc within a short walk. We particularly liked the Trattoria Portofino. The transport links are great too, with the centre only a few minutes away by the S-bahn and the trams are a good way of seeing the city at a slightly slower pace. The accommodation was clean and Gini was happy to welcome us at after 11:00 p.m. on our first night. All the amenities are fine - I wouldn't call it luxurious, but it has everything we needed for a short city break with some self-catering and some eating out. The mezzanine sleeping area wouldn't be for everyone (you need to be able to climb a ladder, but it's clear from the listing what it is you get and our 17 year old son was quite happy with it. Would we come back? Absolutely!
