Wonderful couple of days with Hanno & Zaki, they really could not have been more hospitable hosts. Their apartment you can see is beautiful; but more than that, it also feels like a home. We felt welcome straight away - partly thanks to some apple cake on arrival (not to mention morning coffees from Hanno's plush espresso machine). They were very generous in sharing knowledge of the area - restaurants, markets, etc - and even invited us to watch the Champions League final over a beer with them in the living room. Lending us an umbrella on a very wet Berlin Saturday was another gesture of kindness that wasn't lost on two weary souls.

Very kind, engaging people; with a beautiful-yet-comfortable apartment in the perfect location (with all the usuals like wi-fi)... I think you get the picture. This is really an experience you'll feel grateful for from the outset.

Thanks Hanno & Zaki, you made our trip!
