Sascha's place was perfect for us. It is a big studio with great kitchen and bathroom. A big plus for us was that in addition to the dishwasher and wash8ng machine that many high-end European rentals have, there was a DRYER, too! So amazing not to have laundry drying everywhere. Heatung was fine. AC. Would certainly be perfect in the summer, I am sure. And despite being there in the depths of Berlin's dark, chilly winter, the apartment's huge windows gave us more daylight than I could have expected.
The neighborhood is very quiet and safe and only 10 minutes walk from areas with many bars and restaurants. A huge o,us,too, is that the U-Bahn station is a 4 minute walk and the frequent trains make getting most places in the city a breeze. There are also tram stops very close by as well.
As for the host: he could not have been kinder, easier to work with or more communicative. He responded to every message in a few hours and was always extremely clear and helpful. A wonderful experience
