The apartment is in a fantastic neighbourhood with easy access to public transport, a short walk to Alexanderplatz and access to great restaurants and cafes.
The apartment is accurate in the listing and photos and has everything you would need. However, the walls are very thin and subject to noise from neighbouring rooms/apartments.
We came home during the day to find a cleaner had let himself in to our locked room in order to access a locked door which was concealed behind a curtain. We also had an awkward moment where the hosts young son came in to our room to bang on the concealed door calling for Papa.
We wouldn't have a problem with this if it was obvious to expect this sort of thing but the listing and room is portrayed as a hotel/private hostel yet there are elements in direct contrast to this. It was just a bit strange.
Overall we enjoyed our stay here and would recommend it for those looking for a great base to explore Berlin.
