Me and my boyfriend stayed at the apartment for 5 nights. No basic needs, such as shampoo and soap turned our staying more difficult, as we arrived late. The apartment is in a good residential area, but it's far from the station (8-10min) and from the city centre (15 min from Friedenau). Communication with host (neighboor) was difficult, as she didn't speak english. Fortunately, she was very helpful.
