It was the perfect location. Prenzlauer Berg are is filled with shops, restaurants and bars, the streets and buildings are picturesque.
As for the apartment, the facade was under construction at the time of our stay but it didn’t add any added noise during sleep time. The apartment is filled with natural light and the balcony area is a treat.
My only real concern was that we had to go through 10 flights of stairs... was a good workout though.
Overall, I would stay in Nicole’s apartment again because I truly just fell in love with the area & Berlin.
