Ivos's apartment was beautiful, clean and in such a great location - not at all boring or noisy!! We loved having the big window open to look out over the city whilst enjoying a drink. The bed was very comfortable, and the kitchen had everything we needed to cook our own meals so we didn't have to eat out everyday. It was very close to popular clubs such as Tresor and Kitkat which we visited, around a 25 minute walk to Berghain and the East-Side Gallery which we also visited. It was also only a one minute walk to the train station which we used to visit various other parts of the city (after purchasing an AB all day ticket for a very good price you can travel during the whole day for as many trips as desired - their trains are very efficient and you can catch one every couple of minutes). There are also direct trains which run to and from the Berlin Schönefeld Airport (SXF) train station every 20 minutes (you must get an ABC ticket for this).
Not only that, but Ivos was a superb host. As well as being easy to contact before our arrival, helping us with our journey to the apartment from the airport, he made our check-in stress-free and very kindly sat down with us for several minutes to give us very helpful tips and advice for our trip. Could not recommend him or this apartment more! We felt very much at home and miss it already. Thank you Ivos!
