The studio is a snug hideout in a lively but non-touristic area of Berlin. An almost cubic space, it contains a kitchen, two double beds (one reachable via a ladder, not for the faint of heart) and a tiny bathroom (immediate hot water in the shower, you expect nothing less.) Two narrow windows look out onto a green courtyard and let in dim light and air. It was hot in Berlin but inside it was cool and very quiet. There’s plenty of good affordable restaurants and it’s close to the Mauerpark where you can run in the morning or have a stroll in the evening.
It’s an area with parking meters but you can find free parking space if you look for it. The closest is in a tunnel at 500 meter but we left our car at Ostseestraße and used Berlins excellent public transport.
Our host was very responsive and helpful. Highly recommended.
