Daniel's home is so warm, clean and lovely and centrally located in Friedrichshain. The water turns instantly hot, great shower, huge kitchen and I'm pretty sure the bed mattress is the most comfortable I have ever slept on. The bedroom is quiet and private with a view into the courtyard of the building.
There are plenty of restaurants, bars and shops surrounding the area and the walk to the Warschauer Straße U-Bahn / S-Bahn is just minutes away. It takes about 10 minutes to reach Alexanderplatz. There is a 24 hour supermarket less than 10 minutes walk away and if you need toiletries and personals, there is also a large drugstore just a few minutes away as well.
I walked to a few clubs from his place (Chalet & Arena Club). Google maps estimated a 30 min walk but took me closer to 20 min.
The street next to Dirschauer Str. is called Simon-Dach-Straße where I enjoyed going to a few bars-- Primitiv Bar, and directly across the street is another bar called Clichy. I would highly recommend staying here!
