The room was clean and our host provided great details (via pre-recorded video) about things to see and places to eat in the area. There is another room on the flat that is rented as well, and this was fine (almost like a mini-hostel). Location is perfect and loaded with history. If you're looking for a tour of the city, take Berlin's Best Bike Tour, which starts about a 10 minute walk down the street and covers all the spots you'll want to see in a 2 or 3 day trip. Very close to public transit and a great cafe is down the stairs and to the right about 800 meters (near the bio market).
