Our expectations were surpassed. Check in was smooth, the apartment was clean, spacious and quiet. It provided everything we needed (it was even a nice surprise to discover that the washing machine was in the bathroom and not somewhere in the building). The neighbourhood is pleasant, with a couple of restaurants virtually round the corner. We were very well connected with public tranports, and the heart of Prenzlauer Berg, Rosa Luxemburg Platz and Hackescher Markt were within walking distance. Stamatis' flat was just perfect for our three-week-stay. Louise and Walter
