We had lovely stay at Birte's place, which appeared even more comfortable - like private apartment, just without the kitchen (which we never use in anyway), but there is coffee machine and tea, and sweets on the table, which is so great.
Bright, clean, warm, big comfortable bed and sofa in spacious room and spacious bathroom too.
The apartment is located in quiet neighbourhood just next to Victoria park., but in 5-10 min walk you can reach lively area with lots of restaurants, cafes, shops. The public transport in Berlin is great (even during the night), there are 2 bus stations in 3-6 min walk and 3 metro stations in 9-10 min, you can really easily reach any top central part of the city in 15 min.
Birte is so nice person, we were worried because of our late arrival, but she was really kind to us and so warm welcoming. Thank you Birte for everything, our first visit of Berlin was memorable!
