Maria's place has got everything you need. It is in walking distance from everywhere: u-bahn, s-bahn, hip bars in Friedrichschein and 3 km from Alexanderplatz. Metro is super close. Maria herself is comfortable to live with, kind and keeps it clean and quiet at her place. There are no curtains in the room, that was a bit boring - but at least it get's you up in the morning (if you are not me). All in all 100 % recommended!
