Perfect launchpad to see Friedrichshain, one of the trendier Berlin neighborhoods. The apartment is on Simon-Dach-Straße which is filled with great restaurants and bars; our favorite part of the trip was grabbing some beers and drinking them while walking down the street.
Transit to other neighborhoods is fairly straightforward and quick, we had no problems getting around whatsoever.
The apartment is very nice and incredibly functional, we made dinner one night and found it easy and pleasurable. The shower is also great, and bed very comfy.
I will definitely stay here the next time I visit Berlin.
