Light and space aplenty. We loved staying in the apartment: we were working in Berlin for 6 weeks, and this was the perfect answer to our needs, providing a calm refuge from busy times. We enjoyed using the well-equipped kitchen, and the enormous bath!
Extremely good transport links nearby to get round all parts of the city - couldn’t be better connected by bus, tram and u-Bahn. Easy enough to walk places too.
Equally if food is your thing, there’s a very nice small farmers’ market on Thursday at Kollwitzplatz (delicious pickles and mountain cheese). And a big general food market (including organic) on a Saturday down Kollwitzstraße. We rarely used a general supermarket.
And there are so many cafes & restaurants, it’s hard to know where to begin, but we do love Gugelhof for its indomitable traditional approach, and tiny Otto for its zero waste interest.
I’m writing this in the midst of Coronavirus lockdown in the UK, so there’s no knowing what the post-critical landscape will look like: what changes may have happened by the time anyone next visits. Best wishes to all
who may read this during these unimaginably difficult times.
