We were very happy with our choice of Bernd's apartment for our stay in Berlin. The flat was immaculately clean, tastefully furnished with plenty of room for us. As it happened, we did not use the well-equipped kitchen for cooking since we ate out during our stay. Nevertheless, everything one would require for self-catering was at our disposal in the flat should we have chosen to eat in. In addition we were offered use of an automatic coffee machine.
Bernd was a very friendly and welcoming host, providing an explanation of how various appliances worked just after we arrived. He talked us through the many dinner/pub options in the immediate vicinity and how to get to local metro stations. In addition, he had some very useful info on Berlin for us to look at in the flat.
The location of the apartment in the Prenzlauerberg area of Berlin was great for going out at night with a plethora of local and international cuisine choices within easy walking distance and metro stations within 10 minutes walk.
We have nothing but positive comments regarding our stay and wholeheartedly recommend Bernd's apartment.
