We were drawn to this residence by the enthusiastic reviews it had received from many previous guests. The common element in these reviews was the warmth of the welcome from Meggie. We can only endorse these impressions. Meggie gave us a very warm welcome indeed. She had also been most prompt in responding to questions before we arrived. The room we had was large, with a wonderful outlook over an enclosed garden/cultural area with a small theatre, restaurant and boutiques. Beyond that was the beautiful golden dome of the New Synagogue - one never tired of admiring it in the various shades of light over a day. We were able to cook our own meals on several occasions, a bonus after weeks of travel and eating out. Meggie's apartment is perfectly situated for exploring so many of the major cultural and tourist sites in Berlin and Mitte itself is endlessly fascinating for walking and taking in the cultural scene. We recommend this stay unreservedly.
