This is the second time we have stayed in this great flat - we actually adjusted our travel dates to its availability. The location is superb - a few blocks from the Deutsche Opera, U-Bahn and S-Bahn, and right around the corner from a Karstadt, Einstein Coffee, and an indoor shopping mall with Kaiser's and Netto. The apartment is clean and well-appointed. We know Berlin well, so we did not consult with our host, but I know Brit would be gracious and helpful with any requests. I cannot imagine staying anywhere else in Berlin.
