The apartment was as advertised: but BETTER. Modern, clean, with all the things that you need to feel at home. The location is great, a nice neighborhood in Friedrichshain that has a nearby shopping center and supermarket, plus restaurants and the U-Bahn and S-Bahn are a 2 minute walk away. With Berlin's public transportation system we didn't need a cab or Uber one time in five days, whether you are going to the airport, Mitte, Kreuzberg, or any other part of the city. We felt safe in the area all day and night when walking around. I would highly recommend this to any traveler.
