I was traveling for business and was absolutely delighted to discover that Beate’s place was just steps away from my conference venue Kosmos - but in an elegant residential building with true old world charm. The large bedroom with high ceilings and balcony view was perfect for me to work in - between conference sessions - and overall felt like such a respite as compared to even an upscale hotel. The space was also very clean and had just the right balance of unique furnishing and artistic features to make it really homey but not crowded - an airy space. Bathroom is very ample with a luxuriant tub. It as well as the entire apartment has been renovated recently and tastefully. Beate is charming, calm and well travelled - and I had such a nice time swapping stories with her about adventures from Riads in Marrakesh to horseback riding in Mongolia and more - really one of my best AirBNB experiences ever and highly recommended not only for tourists but for the business traveler.
