The apartment was clean, had lots of windows and was easily accessed. It is in what appears to be a middle-class residential area and seemed to present a good idea of what life in that kind of neighborhood in Berlin is like. It faced a courtyard shared with surrounding mid-rise apartment buildings. The apartment did not have a washer or dryer in the unit itself. There was access to a laundry room with two washers and one dryer but only between 2 and 10 pm. The furnishings were not as pictured, there was no desk or table in the apartment so nowhere to eat. Kitchen was well equipped.
