Stephanie's lovely home is in a perfect location, easy to find, and a short walk (30 seconds?) to a metro, a few more minutes towards amazing hip restaurant and cafes, some of the most sophistication; others, dining in the park on communal tables with restaurant service...very youthful, dynamic (yet quiet!) area. Within the surrounding blocks, apart from the boutiques, there are a few (not too many) brand names, the most wonderful pastry shops, coffee houses, hidden gems...countless reasons to return (as we hope to one day without hesitation). cannot imagine a more perfect home in Berlin. Well-outfitted (full oven, stove, fridge, coffee maker/foamer/coffee pod machine/toaster/microwave...and laundry in the suite! No noise...tweeting of birds was about it. The home is on the inner courtyard side, so no traffic noise whatsoever and not a sound from families or kids in the early evenings onwards. Best, Scott
